The Maestro typically needs fan cooling if the motors are set to 1A current or higher. Preferably, use a fan to blow air from the edge of the Duet along the line of stepper driver chips on both sides of the board. I don't advise using a fan to blow air directly at the board from above or underneath because if you do then there will be a dead zone with very little cooling directly under the centre of the fan.

What if I'm pulling air from the center instead of pushing. Presumably it enters mostly from the edges past the driver chip since my mount has a channel that is open in that area.

There will still be a dead zone at the centre.

Party pooper 😉
