This fan shroud is for use with the Ender 5 Max only, and for use with the Simple AF custom firmware and a Cartographer or Beacon eddy current probe
This model should be printed in ABS/ASA for the best results
Changelog
23/04/2025: Added .f3d file
Printing Instructions
- No supports
- 0.2mm layer height
- Forced 0.4mm lines

- Set “Slice gap closing radius” to 0 under “Precision”

- Disable “Only one wall on top surfaces” under “Walls and Surfaces” in Orca Slicer!

Required Extra Hardware
If you are mounting a Cartographer or Beacon probe, you will need:
2x Voron M3x5x4 heatset inserts (M3 x 5mm OD x 4mm L )
Everything else uses either the stock parts or parts that come with the Cartographer.
Assembly
- Remove the stock fan and fan duct from the original fan shroud
- Insert the fan duct, then fan shroud into the Simply Hexed shroud
- Screw in the fan. The pressure from the fan will hold the duct in place
- Insert the heat-set inserts into the bottom of the Simple Hexed shroud
- Screw in the Cartographer or Beacon into the heat-set inserts using the screws that come with the probe
