NASA CHAMP "S'Clamp"

The symmetrical design features only one component printed twice. Despite four elastic engagement elements, predicting clamping force is challenging. I incorporated an additional elastic element from my previous NASA CHAMP Snap clamp model. Blades provide anti-axial sliding effect akin to natural elements like fish bones and wheat ears. Fine details might not print well, but roughness ensures good grip. Numerous print tests are necessary for calibrating elasticity effects. STL files are zipped in the appropriate folder.
