Tronxy X3 Supercooler - hot end fan shrouds by idig3d

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

UPDATE: Check out this Mitten Cooler newer design I just released. Should work well and need only a 5015 fan.
My stock built Tronxy X3 printer's hot end could not go above 205ºC. The stock design cools the heater block too much. I wanted to printer higher temp >220ºC filaments and could not with the stock printer. So here is my solution.
It reuses the screws from the hot end radiator, but they only work if you remove the washers.
It's designed for left and right 30x30x10mm fans (12v) but you could get by with just one. If you add the left one, then you need to use my custom x stop.

Wire the 30mm fans in parallel -- and added my own y-connector.
If this is helpful, a tip would be nice. At least a like and show your makes.

Please note, this is not compatible with the auto leveling sensor. If I get enough requests, I may figure something out. ;)
