Trinus Cable Relief by rsgeek

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

I've got a Kodama Trinus printer -- and it's great, but needs a little help in a few places. In particular, the print head cabling desperately needs some stress relief near the processor board. I printed another cable support design on Thingiverse (Afro3dPrinter's design https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2072628), but it just wasn't stiff enough for my taste -- so here's my considerably beefier take on things.
This design is just short enough to print on a Trinus, if you orient it diagonally on the print bed. It installs between the processor and the two Z-axis linear actuators (just snap it in place, you don't need to unscrew or loosen anything), with the little lobes on its ends facing down and hooking on two of the bolts that attach the processor to the actuators.
Features in work:
1) This design includes two holes so you could zip-tie the cabling to it -- but I'm not sure yet that they're really necessary.
2) I've now beveled the edges of the semi-cylinder that hold the cabling (out of an abundance of caution w.r.t. fraying the cables).
