Micro Swiss Cooling Tower for CR-6 SE

Hotend assemblies are magical devices that make 3D printing possible, but not the entire hotend is in fact hot. Temperature balance within your printer’s print head is so precisely divided to allow a constant stream of cold filament to melt at the right place and fast enough to avoid clogging. The cold side of your “hotend” is made up of the top section of the heat break and the cooling tower. Effective cooling towers keep filament from melting before it reaches the heat block.

This replacement Aluminium Cooling Block from Micro Swiss provides a special design to keep filament cool within an all-metal hotend assembly. Usually, your Bowden tubing will continue through the cooling tower and provide extra insulation against the heat. However, this aluminium Cooling Tower holds the Bowden tube into its top only and provides an internal filament path. This unconventional design results in a smooth flow of filament as it feeds through your hotend assembly and creates excellent quality prints.

Bear in mind that this Cooling Tower is a replacement part for the Micro Swiss All-Metal Hotend for CR-6 SE and CR-6 SE Max 3D printers. It is supplied from Micro Swiss themselves and includes mounting screws and a screw in cap to hold your Bowen tube.

Within 3D Printing, there are a few brands whose hard work has made them stand out from the rest, with real innovation and the ability to not only refine old designs, but actually redesign from the ground up to offer more comprehensive upgrades for 3D printing enthusiasts and Makers throughout the world.

Micro Swiss is one such brand that perfectly fits this description, and since their founding back in 2015, the Micro Swiss brand has garnered world-wide attention for the quality, material composition and precision of their hotends, nozzles and other all-metal components. With a core focus on TwinClad XT Plated Brass Nozzles and All-Metal Hotend Upgrades for some of the most popular 3D Printers on the market, it’s no surprise that one of the easiest and most effective upgrades available to Makers are Micro Swiss Replacement Parts and Upgrade Kits.

In addition to the amazing 3D Printing components and upgrades that they produce, Micro Swiss also specialise in Swiss Turning, which is capable of precision CNC machining outer diameters as small as 0.0127mm, as well as CNC milling, tapping and post machining finishing for prototyping. These service offerings and correlating skillsets ensure that the Micro Swiss team is more than just capable of producing consistently high-quality parts, but also capable of identifying precisely where each part could use improvements.

As manufacturers and end-users of everything they produce, Micro Swiss is one of the most impressive brands we’ve had the pleasure of dealing with, and we look forward to all of the exciting refinements and developments that they are bound to bring out in the future.
