This 12-blade high-efficiency fan model is optimized for 3D printing, delivering balanced airflow and quiet operation for custom cooling, RC, or DIY projects.
Model Overview
Design: 12-blade configuration engineered for smooth, high-pressure airflow and reduced tonal noise.
Application: Ideal for custom electronics cooling, ducted fan (EDF) setups, or replacement rotors.
Balance: Symmetric multi-blade layout minimizes vibration at moderate RPMs.
Recommended Print Settings
Material: PETG, ABS, or ASA for strength and temperature resistance (avoid plain PLA if used near warm motors).
Layer Height: 0.16 mm or 0.2 mm for clean aerodynamic blade surfaces.
Perimeters/Walls: 3 to 4 walls for centrifugal strength.
Infill: 20% to 40% (Grid or Gyroid) to keep the rotor lightweight while maintaining structural rigidity.
Supports: Tree or manual supports may be required depending on the blade pitch angle.
