      Do you ever plan to release a version compatible with the e3d chimeria hot end??

        Not sure. The Diamond hot end is another one we might consider supporting.

          @Zesty_Lykle:

          OK, after some work, and a nice discussion with Doug, I have wrapped up the design for the adapter.

          So the Shapeways model is now complete and ready.
          The Thingiverse page holds the 2 models, the legless one and the legged one. (If you look at the adapter standing there you will realise why I am calling it the Grand Piano adapter)

          Shapeways http://shpws.me/OPLc
          Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2453322

          I download the ZIP file from Thingiverse and the STL files for the "Smart Effector" will not open in Windows 10 3D Builder

          The STL file for the "PCB Effector" will open.

          Is that correct? Or is there something wrong with either the files or Windows 10 3D Builder.

          Thanks.

          Frederick

          It opens fine in S3D dont have win 10 so can't comment on 3d Builder

            Is there a accurate 3D model of the effector and the custom E3D heatsink somewhere, I would like to make a 40mm blower fan mount 😞

            Delta goes BrrrRRRRrrrrrRRRRrrr

              David gave the hole spacing's out you can work it all out from there.

              And the link to the drop box files for a fan bracket is in the wiki page so with that information as well you can use it or modify its design

                AS I said to Lykle I think bringing out the side like that may interfere with the Diagonal rods unless you are very careful

                  Maybe, thats the beauty of playing with it in electronic format, to iron out all the niggles before doing anything, and sacrificing a single LED might be the best way forward

                    you could bring the tube out right next to the LED maybe and the shouldn't block anything

                      And playing some more (ignoring the LED and maybe even removing it)

                        How about a 50mm blower style? Those are quite common.

                          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

                            I haven't yet found a 24V 40mm or 50mm blower fan that works with PWM.

                                I have added a little pipe holder to the adapter on Thingverse.
                                In case you want to use tubing like in a Berd-Air system. Simple tie-wrap to tie the tubing to the holder.

                                  It looks like you guys are happy with the dimensions however I have added the annotated diagrams here:

                                  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

                                            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).
