2020 i3 Y Axis Cable Chain and Anchors V2

thingiverse

Cable Chain for 2020 Aluminum Prusa i3 Models from 2020. This was designed specifically for my Folger Tech 2020 Prusa i3 Model. I used ABS material because the aluminum bed gets extremely hot during long ABS prints. If you only print with PLA or don't have a heated bed, PLA should be sufficient. See Instructions for Printing Frame Mount. **UPDATE** I have revised the design multiple times and finally achieved what I believe is the best configuration. It would be ideal to print a new belt mount for the Y axis belt, but I didn't feel like disassembling my entire Y axis again. The cable chain was confined to too small an area and would occasionally snag on bearing holders on the right side. So I designed an offset mount as well as another offset that is 6mm longer. The +6mm offset link goes under the bed, while the other offset attaches to the frame mount. I also moved my frame mount outside of the Y rods. With the added offset, the chain now clears the bearings completely and there's no more snagging or breaking links.
