Wishbone Toolhead

A toolhead for RatRig V-Core 3.1 printers that supports the Chube Conduction hotend and LGX Pro extruder. The CPAP Ducts kind of look like a wishbone.

General

The main goal of this was to be able to run a Chube Conduction hotend with water cooling on a RatRig V-Core 3.1. With this setup, I generally run 750mm/s and 30k accel without visible artifacts, your results may differ.

This is designed to work with the following hardware

  • Chube Conduction hotend
  • Chube Conduction water block
  • Bondtech LGX Pro extruder

This is my first complete toolhead design - feedback, testing, and contributions are very welcome!

Features

  • LGX Pro + Chube Conduction
  • Simple installation and maintenance
  • Easy belt installation
  • SLM body
  • Minimal X/Y loss
  • CPAP integration
  • Beacon support
  • 2 unused m3 heat insert points on the CPAP ducts for adding accessories (cameras)

Note - I would not run this unless you have an AWD setup - it's decently heavy at ~580g fully loaded

FDM Printing

What to Print (in the STL dir)

  • Beacon Mount.3mf
  • CPAP Brace.3mf
  • CPap Ducts.3mf
  • EBB42 Mount.3mf
  • X-Endstop Mount.3mf
  • LGX Pro filament sensor.3mf (if you want to use one)
Print Settings
  • Walls: 5
  • Infill: 50%
  • Material: ASA/ABS if enclosed, whatever you want if open-air
    • I would print the ducts and duct brace out of ASA or ABS, they're pretty close to the hotend and get a bit toasty.

SLM Printing

  • This toolhead is designed to be printed in aluminum (SLM). PCBWay or in3dtec are good places to go.
  • There are M3 threads in this design - the PDFs should be used to tell them how to tap them, or you can do it yourself.

What to Print (in the SLM dir)

  • Bottom Toolhead Plate.step
  • LGX Pro + Chube Conduction SLM Plate.step
  • Upper-lower plate joiner (L).step
  • Upper-lower plate joiner (R).step

My V-Core 3.1 Setup

  • Power: 48v XY
  • Front motor mounts: BRS Engineering AWD + tensioner mod
  • Rear motor mounts: Funssor aluminum motor mounts
  • Motors: Kraken V2 Motors x4 (decoupled)
  • Gantry: Mitsumi 2020 extrusion
  • X/Y Rails: Z1 preload rails from KB3D
  • XY Joiners: Funssor aluminum XY joiners

Happy printing!
