Description

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU WATCH THE VIDEO LINKED BELOW THAT EXPLAINS A LOT OF THINGS ABOUT THIS WASTE COLLECTION MODEL

 

UPDATE:

I released a new and improved version that is much faster to print and compatible with the C5 Pro

You can find it here - Flashforge Creator 5 Purge Waste Collection System 

Also this one Creator 5/5 Pro Toolhead Cable Strain Relief Guide – HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO PRINT AND USE! 

 

There is a chance that production units will have very slightly different design or dimensions compared to mine. There is very little room to work with there and the extrusion zone is very close to the wall with nozzle wiper riding right against the wall of the bucket.

 

Pro version would need to be modified to accommodate for fans heaters and filtration (If that is even a possibility) 

 

Print with whatever material you prefer but keep in mind the temperature requirements.

 

Also to avoid sticking of the purge to the walls of the bucket i highly recommend aluminum tape (again, watch the video, crucial info there)

This is the tape i use myself (affiliate link) - https://amzn.to/48STG6J

 

The top holder is optional but recommended to avoid the bucket falling out during printing.

If your printer can accommodate full size then print it in one piece horizontally. No supports needed.

For smaller printers i recommend the first option and some glue (again, watch the video)

 

 

Due to my limited design skills, and lack of space this is not a very effective or pretty solution. Make sure to test and supervise the printer at first to make sure there is no clearance issues. I do not take any responsibility coming from not following directions or differences between my printer and production models. Use with caution.
