Anet A6 Hot-End /Xcar Mod 2019

cults3d

Jet another Anet Hot End/X car Modification because this Anet was so cheap :-) But it needs some improvements. The aim is ABS, PET-G and PLA printing. The Extruder moved away to the back at on the printer frame. Connected with an PTFE tube to the new X car/Hot end setup. Of course, the blue parts are also not original For this printer it possible to tighten the X and Y timing belt. The parts for the X axis are included. Not for the Y axis because it does not work on an original Anet. If somebody is interested in those files let me know :-). The Hot end has E3D Heat Break dimensions of: diameter 22.5mm x 26mm, but clones with diameters of 25mm also fit I made the Heat Break out of aluminum and used the heater and heater block that came with the Anet Printer. For cooling the printed part 2 Snail House Fans are used. One already came with the Anet printer itself. For these fans are 4 different Fan-ducts available. They have four different lengths I needed for my printers. Please see included Screen-Shot included with the photos. The ones I used for this example are “snail house fan duct 28.35mm L.stl & snail house fan duct 28.35mm R.stl”. The four M4 allen key bolts that hold these fans are screwed into the “to small holes”, so they make their own threats. The Extruder is just a standard direct drive design. The PTFE tube coupler is screwed in a to small hole. This way it taps it own threats. I left the hole to small so you can drill it out to the direct diameter and/or tap the treats you need. I know the lever looks very ugly :-) see photos. But it works for now :-) parts also needed for the Extruder: Spring from Anet Nema 17 motor from Anet Filament driver gear and push bearing from Anet M3x6mm from Anet 2X M3x18mm from Anet M3x20mm & nut from Anet M4x14mm and nut from Anet M5x6mm I had laying around (for tensioning the spring) PTFE Tube (1Meter) and 2 couplers (Pneufit) I had to buy... parts also needed for the X car & Hot End setup E3D Hot End or Clone 30x30mm fan and Hot End bracket Linear Bearings from Anet 1 Snail-House fan from Anet and one I had to buy... 3x M3x10mm & nuts from Anet 3x M3x12mm & nuts from Anet 4x M4x20mm Bolt & nuts from Anet 2x M4x40mm Bolt & nuts I had laying around Let me know if you have any questions and also comment in case I forgot something :-)
