SFEvo E3Dv5 cooling system for i3mega and other printers 3D print model

Description

Hi, this is a cooling system for e3dv5 extruders. I called it SFEvo (Scolopendra Final Evolution). In the images you can see the anycubic clone mounted which respects the dimensions of the original E3d version. This is the brother of the e3dv6 version that I have been using for a while. In the last two images you can see the SFEvo e3dv6 printing the SFEvo e3dv5. You can find it among my models.

The SFEvo-v5 can be mounted on the i3mega directly using a specific thickness as the fixing holes correspond. You also have to move the endstop of X, to do this print the switch adapter and the piece to be fixed on the carriage, you can see it in one of the images. However, you must have already modified your i3mega in order to have the front part of the trolley free. One of my first modifications does this, if you are interested you can find it among my published models.

To use it on other printers you will find 3 adapter thicknesses that allow fixing with different carriage holes. In the images you can see the 8mm version. Among the drawings you will also find the 10 and 12 mm version.

If everything respects the official measurements, the beaks are at a height of 3mm from the bed. In case you need to correct the height of the nozzle (if you use clips to fix bed), there are washer shims for a maximum correction of 2mm.

It uses one 40mm fan which you can slow down to around 70% and thus is also less noisy (you can use around 100 ohm resistor 1/2 watt). If you use it on the i3mega you don't have to do anything because the fan is already running at a reduced speed. And use 2 x 30mm fans for cooling the print piece, I normally use 35% for ABS, HIPS and 70-75% for PLA. You have to connect the two fans in parallel (red wire to red and black wire to black). Don't worry any card can handle the load.

M3 screws are used for fixing, 15mm of the screw are inside the SFEvo. The distance between the holes is 53.5mm. For use with generic adapter (pictured) you need 2 M3x20mm screws and two nuts. When used on i3mega with i3mega adapter, there are 2 M3x30-35mm screws.

The holes for fixing the fans are 2.6mm, perfect to be threaded with M3, you can alternatively use self-tapping screws but I do not recommend it. You need 4 screws 10-15mm for 30mm fans and 2-4 screws 15-20mm for 40mm fan.

Optimized for 0,4 nozzle, print it at: layer 0.2 , 2 perimeters , top/bottom 1mm , 25-30% infill , no support , print it in ABS, PETG, HIPS
