Description

 

Creality K2 Plus - bin Left position

 

This chute model is for the Creality K2 Plus printers. The chute is designed so that it does not interfere with the normal operation of the fans that are located on the back of the printer. It is designed so that no additional parts need to be purchased for installation. Simply print the parts and mount them on the printer. For added convenience, the waste bin can be removed without having to remove the other components.

 

Parts and assembly

 

The whole model consists of 4 main parts. Each part is marked on the picture where it is located. The parts have been designed so that when they are printed there is no need to add support.

 

 

1. Waste outlet baffle (directs the poop to the chute)
- Remove the two screws that are on the left and right of the outlet. Place the printed part as shown in the picture. Then screw the screws in the same places again.

 

2. Chute (directs the poop to the bin)
- Unscrew the bottom left and bottom middle screws of the printer cover. Caution: the two screws have different threads so be careful which screw you unscrew from where to put it in the same place. Insert the chute as shown in the picture then re-tighten the screws. The fine thread screw (which screws onto the printer frame) may need to be replaced with a 3mm longer screw. If you want the chute to be snug against the printer cover you can use double stick tape. I have not used it and yet it works very well for me and I have had no problems

 

3. Bin Holder
- Raise the printer from behind then position the holder so that the printer leg goes inside the round hole on the holder.

 

4. Bin
- Insert into the holder. One corner at the top of the bin is cut out. This is in order that when you insert the bin the cut out part falls under the chute. this way the chute goes freely into the bin. It also helps to make the bin easier to remove and put away when the waste filament needs to be disposed of. For easier removal, lift the bin at an angle until it comes out of the lowest part of the holder then pull outwards. 

 

 

Depending on the printer layout you may need a right bin position which can be found here.

Awesome model and very nice design! Tho I did ran into one issue. The angle of attack of the chute is pretty low, so with a higher friction PLA I used the angle was to low to throw all the poops into the bucket. It ended up collecting in the chute and blocked the chute completely. I just (janky) changed the inner mounting point and rised that by ~3cm to end up closer to the outlet baffle. That worked flawlessly tho I had to remove ~5mm of the bucket cus it clashed with the new chute. It would be great if you could add that as a V2 or different version.

Thank you for the feedback. I have not had this problem before. The chute is designed to fit the fan openings and that is why the angle of descent is so small. I will also consider a larger angle option, although it will cover a small portion of the fan.

Had to change out the screws for a little longer and then it fit perfectly. Just what it needed.

The only issue I've had with it is the lower screw for the chute couldn't be attached. The screw was too shallow and the thickness of the print prevented the screw from catching, Chute still works great without that 1 screw though.

In my case, the screw fit, although it caught a very small part of the thread. I didn't want the chute to be thinner because it wouldn't have the same strength. You can buy a screw that is 2mm longer than the original. That will be quite enough. Still, it's nice to have it for more chute stability.

totally agree, figured it was just bad luck that it wasn’t quite long enough. I’ll get a longer one next time I think about it at the store :)
