XTool D1 Laser 80mm Fan Adapter - Makeblock Laser Cutter Upgrade
byMandicReallyPractical Printed Parts!
Recently I started using the Makeblock XTool D1 Laser Cutter and found the stock 50mm fan was too loud for my taste. When I went to inspect the fan for replacement... I broke it. So in comes this design!
This is an adapter duct to mount an 80mm fan in place of the stock 50mm fan. It was specifically designed to work with the XTool D1 Laser Cutter, but may work in other applications. The side of the duct has a place for the Laser End wiring harness to be zip tied in place. This makes it more secure and supported than stock as well as picking it up and away from the cutters path better. I also included a Fan Grille that features the same logo design as the stock metal fan grille so you can maintain that look.

The factory 50mm Fan is a 12v fan that draws .2A. I replaced mine with an 80mm Noctua Redux fan that draws just 0.06A. So it is a lower power draw as well as flowing more air AND being quieter!
Assembly uses the original Fan mounting screws to attach the Adapter to the Laser Head. To mount the 80mm Fan you will need four 3mm x 25mm screws.
