Two Trees Sapphire Pro E3D V6 Hotend with 5015 blower fan and 40x10mm hotend fan by Scheunenshit

Last crawled date: 3 years, 4 months ago

Hey guys,
this is my design for a V6 hotend mount on the Two Trees Sapphire Pro.
It should also fit the Sapphire Plus.
I know that there are already existing some really good variants of a V6 mount for the Sapphire Pro ..
But I wanted to create my own thing because I wanted to have a design with as few parts as possible. Therefore I wanted to use a 40x40x10 hotend fan and a 5015 radial part cooling fan to get rid of the standard noisy and ineffective fans.
And the biggest reason, why I created this design, is that I wanted to be able to have a look on the nozzle while printing.
So, what do you need to mount this design after printing?

standard E3D V6 hotend or a clone one (both direct/bowden versions will work)


8x M3 brass thread inserts to melt in with a soldering iron (I started using the ruthex ones, which you can find on amazon - trust me, after using it, you'll never want to go back to the inserted square or hex nut method again)


24V 5015 radial fan


40mm x 40mm x 10mm hotend fan (I'm using a 12V Noctua with a stepdown converter)


2x M3x20mm hex head screws for mounting the radial fan


4x M3x12mm (or M3x14mm) hex head screws for the hotend fan

2x M3x18mm hex head screws for clamping down the hotend within the two parts of the mount
For mounting the whole assembly to the carriage, you can use the original three M4 and two M3 screws.
This is my first design so please be gentle. If there are any suggestions or any ideas for improvements, write down in the comments and I'll post you the .step files.
If you're interested, please have a look at my other designs for the Sapphire Pro and feel free to give me some feedback.
