Beefy Keenovo Wire Strain Relief for CR-10

thingiverse

Beefy cable strain management solution for my Keenovo + CR-10. Wanted a secure way to attach the strain relief to the bed without drilling holes or using a cable chain. So, I came up with this solution - probably overkill, but it works really well. I wrap the wires in a nylon sleeve and secure them with electrical tape near the heat pad. Instead of a fancy cable chain, I simply velcro'd the cable to the back of the Y-axis motor. No rubbing and super easy. The version here has been slightly modified from my picture to remove the guide walls closest to the heat bed, giving me more room for the wires without having to cram them too close to the heat pad. I used two zip ties instead of one. UPDATE: Added two new versions - v2 is what I'm currently using, and v3 is designed to attach even more securely directly to the carriage. Both were significantly "beefed up" to prevent sagging and re-done in Fusion 360. Print these with ABS or PETG to avoid sagging. Even though they won't get very hot, it's warm enough for PLA to sag down and cause this to drag back and forth on the belt. Don't do what I did - now I print them in PETG and everything is fine after months of use.
