Inspired by Orca Slicer VFA test, but reworked to be used in other slicers. Also changed angles of beams and added thicker lines to separate segments from each other.

**For PS/SS:** just use .3mf file. Most of print settings already made.
**For Cura:** use .stl model and change perimeter speed with post-processing.

# K3D Ender-3 Sprite Printhead

## Summary

Cooling system and mount for Creality Sprite extruder.

- Cooling system fits any Creality Sprite extruder or Creality Ender-3 S1/S1 Pro/S1 Plus;
- Cooling system is very powerful and can cool any filament even on volcano hotend's maximum flow;
- Cooling system can be used with V6/CR-10/Volcano hotends;
- Mount for Ender-3 style printers have 2 variants: for stock Sprite's 3010 fan or for stock Ender-3 4010 fan;
- All parts can be printed without supports;
- It's open source. You can download .stp file and change everything you need.

## Instructions for Ender-3 S1/S1 Pro/S1 Plus

You will need for assembly:

- 2x 5015 24v fans;
- 2x M4x20 DIN 7380 screws;
- 1x M4x35 DIN 7380 screw.

Cooling system can be printed without supports if you will lay it on front side.

## Instructions for Ender-3

### What to buy

- Creality Sprite extruder. Prefer plastic version without fans;
- Bi-metal heatbreak for sprite extruder;
- V6/CR-10/Volcano heatblock, nozzle, sock and thermistor;
- 2x 5015 24v fans;
- 3-4x M3x8 DIN 7380 screws;
- 4x M4x20 DIN 7380 screws.

For BLTouch/CRTouch (optional):

- 1x BLTouch/CRTouch sensor;
- 4x M3x5 DIN 7380 screws.

### How to assemble

There is [very detailed instructions](https://k3d.tech/esp/) on how to print and assemble this project in russian language. You can use any translation app to read it.


K3D Sprite cooling system

For assembly you will need:

- 6x d10x1 magnets
- 4x M3x8 screws
- Any universal glue

Tips for printing:
- Mid grille is optional;
- Grille parts are printed with 0 layers of bottom and cover;
- For grille parts you can use any infill you want. I used 30% honeycomb.

# Why this print head?

+ Fits any 3D printer, that uses ender-3 ot similar X carriage
+ Printhead can be removed for service by unscrewing only 4 screws
+ No print volume losses on most printers
+ Easy to print - no supports needed
+ Improved air flow for both hotend and model cooling

### BOM

+ BMG or clone (right)
+ E3D V6/Volcano/Dragon/Dragonfly/NF-Zone hotend
+ 40x40x10 axis fan for hotend
+ 1x or 2x 5015 turbo fans for model cooling
+ 3x M3x6 round head screw
+ 2x M3x8 round head screw
+ 2x M3x10 round head screw
+ 4x M3x12 round head screw
+ 2x M3x16 round head screw
+ 4x M3x20 any head screw
+ 10x M3 nut or M3x4 heat-set insert

### Print settings

+ Models are made for right BMG
+ For base and mount use any filament with ~80°C heat resistance (PETG, ABS, ASA, HIPS, PA, PP, PC, etc.)
+ For fan ducts use any filament with ~100°C heat resistance (ABS, ASA, PA, PP, PC, etc.)
+ Models are already placed in correct printing orientation
+ Models are created for 0.4mm line width and any layer height. If you plan to use other values, check layer preview to find wrong pathes.
+ Use 3+ perimeters and 100% infill for max rigidity of mount

### Updates

28.12.21 - Increased strength and rigidity of parts
12.01.22 - Increased strength and rigidity of base part
13.06.22 - Increased strength and rigidity of all parts
17.10.22 - Icreased efficiency of fan duct + added BLTouch mounts
25.10.22 - Added mounts for Voxelab Aquila
