About This File
A Mount for installing a 5015 FAN ( like a SUNON MF50152V2-1000U-A99 ) with 40mm Hole Spacing to a 60mm Stepper Motor ( like the LDO-42STH60-3004MAC (S40) )
I tried using Double Sided Tapes and Magnets but neither of them were a reliable Solution so here's a Version that securely mounts it to the Stepper Motor without using the Stepper Motor Screws.
BOM ( for a Set of two ) :
8x M3x4mm Voron Style Heat Set Inserts
8x M3x20mm Button Head Cap Screws
4x M3x12mm Button Head Cap Screws
Print Instructions:
The Parts come as Multi Color Parts for those that fancy it.
I've used the usual Voron 0.2mm Layer Height, 4x Perimeter, 5x Top / Bottom Layers, and 40% Infill Settings which should work for anything using Heat Set Inserts.
Perhaps use a Brim for the Air Guides since they barely make any contact with the Bed.
Installation Instructions:
Install two M3x12mm Button Head Cap Screws that will hold the Mount to the Stepper into the Fan Mount - It helps doing this while the Stepper has not yet been installed to gauge how far the Screws will have to be threaded into the Mount.
Install the Voron Style M3x4mm Heat Set Inserts into both the Fan Mount and the Air Guides.
Use the Fan to Assemble the Air Guides and Fan Mount into a unit using M3x20mm Button Head Cap Screws - Be mindful of a suitable Fan Cable Orientation that works for your Setup.
Slide the Fan Mount onto the Stepper with the Screw closest to the Fan catching onto the Stepper Motors Bottom Plate first, then rotate the Mount so that the rear Screw will catch as well.
⚠ Caution ⚠:
This was tested with a Chaoticlab CNC Tap V2.0 and no MicroSwitch Endstop Mount attached to it! ( Sensorless Homing! )
This AddOn may not work with any X-Carriers having Parts occupying the space below the X-Axis Extrusion as the FANs now partially do!
