Fan mount for dc42 board with 2nd cooling fan
February 08, 2016 04:16PM
I know there are a few designs for the fan/hot-end mount with DC42's sensor board, but does anyone have something that makes use of a second fan for cooling? I have 2 * 40mm x 10mm fans, and would like to use them to increase cooling on the parts if I could. Ideally I want 360deg cooling.

you can use my design if u like [www.thingiverse.com]

But it does not have 360 cooling ,it uses fan duct for ormerod.

Thanks Darathy. I had that design before changing to DC42's board, but wasn't happy with the fan duct as it often caught on the print. I like the new design from dc42 (Github) but want something that can use both fans, the one for the cold end (redirected from the heat sink) and the other fan controlled via gcode.

I wasnt much satisfied with it either ,the airflow wasn't high anaugh and it was noisy at high rpm.

I use dc42 dual nozzle sensor board.

I use this for cooling:[www.thingiverse.com]

With two modifications That I made my self:
Tighter fit to the ormerod: [www.thingiverse.com]

And a duck-like duct:

I use a bladeserver 5v fan that runs on the 12v fan ot connection on Duet 0.6. I set it at 15-20% (set in slic3r). Cools very, very well.
