This is an air assist nozzle for a K40 Chinese laser cutter, based on the original model by VanBot112 and the remixed version by Venomouse. I changed the air inlet so that it comes in from the side because I'm using the positioning laser mount by Crashoverride which blocks the air tube coming in.

I didn't want to use the standard "over the laser" style air assist nozzles (venturi effect is bad, m'kay?), and I think this is the best alternate design that I've seen.

Print Settings

Printer:

Hictop 3DP-11

Rafts:

Doesn't Matter

Supports:

No

Resolution:

0.2mm

Infill:

40%


Notes:

I've printed this most successfully without any support on the tube inlet or the air outlet - I found that the support in these areas is too difficult to remove. Model is best printed upside-down (with the air spout thingy pointing up)
