It may well be that my fans were defective as other people are clearly not having the same issue. I run a lot of ABS and maybe other folks are doing more PLA. I dunno.<br />WisarWisarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08937457769749740121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3025234084286245596.post-20314077182092479312015-03-17T10:21:28.993+00:002015-03-17T10:21:28.993+00:00TH0mas:

This seems also to be supported by the use cases and by logic. I think your advice is good.

Thanks for the detailed measurements! ...Hi Wislay,<br /><br />Thanks for the detailed measurements! May I sum up your results by saying the reverse or normal mounted fans make no difference concerning the cooling of the steppers? If you agree I would not change my advice to reverse the fan because it results in a slightly better cooling of the extruded filament.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />Th0mas<br />Th0mashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07326210092517308878noreply@blogger.com
