This is a replacement for the stock fan shroud when using the Micro Swiss Ender 5 Direct Drive kit. It allows use of a 40x20mm main fan and two 50x15mm part cooling fans, and a BL Touch.
- Easy to print
- No supports, each piece prints in 2hrs, estimated
- Easy assembly
- minimal hidden screws/nuts, tight fitting slots so they don't fall out while you're working on it.
- Easy maintenance
- Access/replace hotend by removing one fan.
- Lightweight
- minimal hardware and plastic, keep weight close to the carriage
- Maximize print area
- no loss on X axis, small (approx 10mm) on Y axis
- Secure
- no rattling fans, everything is solidly mounted, extruder and hotend mount metal-to-metal.
For best results, print brackets with the base-plate side down.
Bill of Materials
Fans
40x20mm Axial Fan - Noctua makes 5v and 12v ones, be sure to connect to the correct voltage source (the stock Ender 5 fan is 24v, don't use those connectors!)
50x15mm Blower Fan x 2 - I use the some Dual Bearing Low RPM/Quiet ones from amazon, be sure to get ones that match your machine's voltage--24v for Ender 5
