The pockets are designed for the "IN" side to go up on both sides because they are not exactly symmetrical. Also, as shown in the Stealthburner manual they won't work sideways.

Great work. Ive adapted it to fit a bambulabs cht hotend, biqu microprobe, btt knomi in the main piece and an afterburner toolhead pcb mounted behind the orbiter 2.0 motor to make me not hate myself later. Just extened the middle section with the mounting holes along with the cable door and bolting it straight to my printers carriage since its not a full voron. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... atrushing 994 Posted September 16, 2023 Share 10 hours ago, thp777 said: Love this design.

I've fitted a screw through the voron logo to mount a 4010 fan on the outside because the 3010 fan is dead but it works. Sorry to hear about the mosfet. The shroud was originally designed for a 3007 fan and the 3010 does make it a tighter fit. When I get around to the larger update that I'm working on, I will try to make more clearance there as well. I used the hotend models from the Phaetus GitHub but if you could measure the length of your hotend I can try to adjust the shroud. I put the nozzle at the same Z height as all of the other versions. They state that their 6-fin version is 48.8mm long but this is the only drawing they have available. In their model, the 7-fin version is 50.8mm long. The Mini Stealth design has the tip of the nozzle at 2.2mm below the lowest part of the shroud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I actually have the 7 fin version, and the measurements are correct, as in the distance from the nozzle tip to the fan shroud is 2mm, but it seems to me that some of the air is blowing on the heaterblock rather than the printed part.

I did my best to aim the airflow at the tip of the nozzle but it is hard for me to say what really happens to the airflow as it exits the ducts under pressure. Part of the update that I want to push for the overall Mini Stealth design improves the airflow quite a bit and I ended up achieving a 20% improvement in airflow but it involves gluing an insert into the blowers and only works with the ducts and inserts matched for a smooth air path. If you want to give it a try, I can work up another shroud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like air usually does... It goes all over the place LOL. I mean let's face it, a good amount of air flow is going to be deflected by the part geometry and the part geometry is always changing and the nozzle is always moving over constantly changing terrain. I don't think it's something you can control really. Flooding the region with as much air as possible is probably as good as you can get. Air volume, I'm guessing, probably has a greater impact than direction of flow, given you're already pointing at the nozzle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't necessarily want to do more changes right now but if you make them, I'll have them for when I can experiment a bit, so don't do it if you don't want to.

I did my best to aim the airflow at the tip of the nozzle but it is hard for me to say what really happens to the airflow as it exits the ducts under pressure. Part of the update that I want to push for the overall Mini Stealth design improves the airflow quite a bit and I ended up achieving a 20% improvement in airflow but it involves gluing an insert into the blowers and only works with the ducts and inserts matched for a smooth air path. If you want to give it a try, I can work up another shroud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like air usually does... It goes all over the place LOL. I mean let's face it, a good amount of air flow is going to be deflected by the part geometry and the part geometry is always changing and the nozzle is always moving over constantly changing terrain. I don't think it's something you can control really. Flooding the region with as much air as possible is probably as good as you can get. Air volume, I'm guessing, probably has a greater impact than direction of flow, given you're already pointing at the nozzle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't necessarily want to do more changes right now but if you make them, I'll have them for when I can experiment a bit, so don't do it if you don't want to.
