This is a remix of "E3D v6 Effector for Micromake Delta Kossel v2 (with 5015 fan)" by Algenist (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3706236). I’d mark this as a remix, but Thingiverse is falling apart and that feature isn’t working for me. I made the following changes in Freecad:

    • Opened the diagonal rod screw holes slightly on the effector plate.
    • Added holes in the effector plate for 6x4mm magnets.
    • Designed a magnetic detachable Z probe.
    • Had to redesign the air duct to allow room for the Z probe. It’s a slight loss in cooling, but it was worth it to me to no longer have to manually calibrate. 
    • Shortened the rod separation from 43mm to 42mm.


The air duct was a little tricky. You may need to scale it on the Z axis of your slicer if it scrapes your print. It works fine for me, but I could see a slight change in the first layer making a difference. It should be printed in ABS. Be sure to set the m3 nuts on the effector plate for the diagonal rods with some hot glue or superglue and use a touch of superglue to set the magnets. I used the following magnets https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C6CYPLR?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details and the following micro switch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07P11JG8K/?coliid=IBQDVS5QYVGZH&colid=3TG04TW2M3MEN&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it . The probe cable was soldered and heat shrinked onto the micro switch. You'll need to drill out the screw holes a little on the micro switch to allow the m3 screws to go through. Any 2 wire JST connector can be used to make it easy to remove once calibration is finished. The micro switch is wired normally open. 

The following changes were made to the Marlin config files:
Configuration.h:
\#define USE_Z_MIN_PLUG
\#define Z_MIN_PROBE_ENDSTOP_INVERTING true
\#define Z_MIN_PROBE_USES_Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_PIN
\#define NOZZLE_AS_PROBE
\#define NOZZLE_TO_PROBE_OFFSET { 0, 0, -22.9 } // This will need to be fine tuned with babystepping. 
\#define DELTA_CALIBRATION_MENU
\#define DELTA_AUTO_CALIBRATION
\#define Z_CLEARANCE_BETWEEN_PROBES 8
\#define Z_CLEARANCE_MULTI_PROBE 8
\#define Z_PROBE_OFFSET_RANGE_MIN -25

Configuration_adv.h:
\#define BABYSTEPPING
\#define DOUBLECLICK_FOR_Z_BABYSTEPPING
\#define BABYSTEP_DISPLAY_TOTAL
\#define BABYSTEP_ZPROBE_OFFSET

I added a simple custom command to my octoprint config file for autocalibration:

- M190 S65
- M104 S0
- G33
- M500

It hasn’t been tested, but I wouldn’t heat up the hot end since it may melt the Z probe.


This is a work in progress. There has been a good bit of trial and error and some things may have been left out or not fully explained. If you have any trouble I’d be glad to look into it or talk you through it.

This is a remix of the Hero Me Gen 5 Bltouch mount and the Printermods air duct for a 5015 fan designed to fit the Printermods V1.3 Direct Drive plate while using an E3D volcano nozzle. The Bltouch mount should work for the standard E3d V6 hotend as well if you use the top screw hole instead of the bottom one. The E3D V6 mount and collar can be downloaded from printermods site at https://printermods.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/60000683258-creality-ender-3-v2-installation-instructions

A Y carriage action replacement for a Sainsmart Genmitsu Prover that lets you use a standard lead screw connector like the following one from amazon.

I included a file for a small spacer in case you need it.

An air assist mount for my Endurance Laser to connect the Hose Loc-Line style air tube from which this project is remixed. Uses M3 screws and nuts. I just shove the air hose down into the top hole and it holds. If you have trouble with the Loc-Line style air tube not interlocking strongly enough I suggest a small amount of silicone tape from Auto Zone inside the connections.

I wanted something a little simpler to switch out that would also give me a little more z height for my G8 lens. I have the extended Y axis, so the loss of print area wasn't a big deal. Print upside down with tree supports enabled. The laser is light, so being extended from the gantry hasn't caused any sagging.

A remix of two great projects. This is a remix of Hero Me V5 base 3 and stock extruder direct drive adapter made to fit Proper Printing's quick change adapter. You'll still need to download the rest of the required parts from the original designers. The default extruder stepper is pretty heavy, so I'm not expecting to get a lot of speed out of this. I'll share the blender file if anyone is interested. 

I printed this using tree supports touching the build plate only.
