Ender 3 V2 Y-axis and Z-axis drag chain
thingiverse
After checking already existing designs, I could not find anything satisfying to me: frame or steppers brackets would put a lot of strains on the cables, so I decided to design my own. The chain link is a remix from the design by Diogosantos88: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3715002 I cut a bit of the clip-on cones after breaking several links trying to clip them together. I also shortened the part where two links touch themselves in the length so that they can actually lay flat. The chain-link-cut file uses the same idea as before but that connection point is completly removed to allow the chains to freely move backward (necessary for the links connected to the frame connector and stepper motor connector - see pictures). The clip-curved is a remix from the design by Diogosantos88: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3715002 I am using is clip file for the Y-axis chain but my cables are too thick on the Z-axis so I could not clip those in. No issue with the curved design for the Z-axis. You will need 4 M3x45 screws to attach the connector to the extruder motor and 2 M5 screws for the frame connector. The Y-axis bed connector I use comes from Tobi0892 design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4316238 I am using a total of 35 chain-link (15 for Y-axis and 20 for Z-axis) and 3 chain-link-cut for the Z-axis. Edit: I added the file clip_connector, you can print one and clip it in the notches on the flanges of the Z axis connector of bottom_connector, it might and prevent the link from popping out if it occurs for you, no guarantee however.
