Anycubic Photon LCD Fan

thingiverse

Edit 2020.02.01: I've installed the fan duct and as far as I can tell, it appears to be working! Unfortunately one of the mounting arms broke off when I dropped the fan duct, but even with just one the part is still more than stable enough. I've disconnected the chamber fan and instead connected the LCD fan to that port. The noise level of the printer has definitely increased, so only install this mod if your printer is not standing in a place where you need it quiet. Edit 2020.01.28: The fins have greatly improved the airflow, which now flows in the right direction. The thing looks super nice as well. I am quite confident that this can work out. Edit 2020.01.27: Printed the first prototype and checked airflow. To my surprise this thing is actually pumping air through at an astonishing rate. Also noticed that the airflow was really skewed so v1.1 now comes with fins to direct airflow a bit straighter. I'm quite sure now that this could actually work out really well. I am working on an LCD fan for the Anycubic Photon. This is my progress. Just to make that clear, I have no idea if this will work. I am going entirely by the CAD file of the photon, so any deviation from the real deal may completely ruin the project. Haven't printed anything yet, haven't installed anything. I am intending to use a <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/BFB04512HHA-C/603-1564-ND/2560687">45x10.3 radial fan</a> to blow air through the gap of the LED light cone onto the back of the LCD. Well see if there is any hope to this. Help in testing or advice is always welcome.
