Fast Change Effector Wiring Connector Holder

thingiverse

A mounting system for quick change of wiring on the effector and extruder. It is specifically designed to work with a delta setup, allowing for easy switching between direct drive steppers and Zesty Nimble cable drives. Additionally, it accommodates filament diameter changes from 1.75mm to 3mm. A hole has been included for Berd-Air style cooling tubing, which fits snugly over the landing inside. The smaller tubing connects to a piece of #10 hypodermic tubing. I design holes slightly undersized to allow final fitting with drill bits. In this case, the hole was drilled to #30 size and then friction welded with hypodermic tubing in place. PETG material is used for the mounting system, requiring quick completion without interruptions. Two "Aviation" connectors are employed, one with 9 pins and one with 10 pins, preventing accidental mix-ups. The selected connectors can handle up to 5 amps per pin, suitable for 12V or 24V hot end heaters. However, some connectors have a maximum rating of only 3 amps, making them unsuitable at 12V. The used connectors are from ebay seller giorgio11185 and meet the required specifications.
