      It looks like you guys are happy with the dimensions however I have added the annotated diagrams here:
      https://duet3d.com/wiki/Smart_effector_and_carriage_adapters_for_delta_printer#Dimensions

      Nice looking cooling ideas coming through, just be sure yo stay clear of the SMT electronic components that are on the bottom of the board.

        Not having a board, that is kinda tricky, but I think it is OK, looking at the photos.
        Thanks for the measurements.

          Anymore updates as to when it's going on to the order pages, need to order a new pt100 sensor and daughtboard so will order all in one if it's not long out

            As soon as it arrives in stock, they will put it on the page.
            Hope it arrives soon myself, as I need "everything" πŸ™‚

                We already know they'll be available when they'll be available, no need to echo…

                I too would appreciate a time estimate as I'm currently looking for a new effector. Something like "probably within a week / few weeks / this month / before Christmas" would suffice just to give me a rough factor to work with and narrow down my choices.

                If the team doesn't want to give out specifics for whatever reason (lack thereof, refraining from giving out guesstimates, strategic reasons, or such) knowing that could be helpful too. πŸ™‚

                No pressure, just my two cents' worth of idle talk.

                Whether I'll be getting this particular effector plate (or system) or not, I'm excited to hear about people's experiences and measurements when the availability extends beyond beta testers. Some of the technology coming lately from the team working on Duet has me thinking these guys might go far and - more importantly - have the agility to keep up pace with the competition (present or future).

                    Thanks for the info. I think I'll be holding on then. πŸ™‚

                        I thought they were only going on the shop when ready, I can see the addons and can add to cart but still saying out of stock

                          It seems that this is the first public picture of the bottom side of the printed circuit board with sensor electronics πŸ™‚ Unfortunately, the quality of the photo is very poor and labels of IC chips are not visible.

                          UPD: SmartEffector is called as StrainEffector 1.3 on PCB silkscreen. Maybe this is the key to unraveling the way of bed probing?

                            I had 50mm for some time, but I like the 40mm compact size, same as classic 40mm fans, but it can be put alongside the e3d for a narrow design. If you take time to search you'll find ones with more than 10CFM

                            A 40mm blower fan would certainly fit better than 50mm. I had ordered the 50mm, as it is what it on the Prusa i3 MK2 I have, and it does a fantastic job. If I can find a 40mm with a healthy CFM, that would certainly fit better on my T3P3 Kossel Mini.

                            Here's one possible contender (at 12V) - showing 9.5 CFM.

                              Why do you want to unravel the thing ? are you looking to reverse engineer it to rip the technology off or something ?

                                It's just curiosity, nothing more. It seems strange to me that it is so carefully hidden. I'm just happy Duet user and don't want to rev. engineer anything πŸ™‚

                                    Does it mean we will see them in stock today seeing as before we were told they will show on site when there available

                                      what kind of sensor does effector use for autobed?

                                      It's a strain gauge that detects a minute flexing of the PCB.

                                      it was revealed on page 9 of this thread what tech it used.

                                        They won't be in stock until next week. I put the listing up to answer some questions about the cost.

                                            Glad to hear it! And could I order 12 not 6 Magballs as spare addon?
