In getting the parameters dialed in for printing PLA a cooling ring is envisaged to cool the extruded material as it leaves the hot end. This mounts to the bottom of the Rostock Max extrusion platform. Internal baffles and differing size exit holes work to equalize the pressure to make a 360 degree cooling zone. A 25mm fan blows air from the side and gets directed to the printing interface. Eventually a set of clips will be integrated to clip on the axles of the delta unit.

The shroud was designed in SolidWorks and printed in ABS.  Once the shroud was in place a connection had to be developed for powering the fan. See later post.
