Model information
Description
CR-6 Max Cable Swing Arm
Purpose
This design provides a cable management solution for a direct drive CR-6 Max. It is designed to mount to the location previously occupied by the factory extruder motor.
Practical Uses
To prevent interference with the swing motion of the arm, the author notes that only the two back holes should be used for mounting. The holes in the mount will require drilling to accommodate a preferred fastener size.
Included Parts
- Extruder Mount.stl
- Swing Arm.stl
Note: The assembly requires a standard skateboard bearing to be pressed into the swing arm to push on the stud.
Printing and Assembly Guidance
Assembly begins by bolting the mount plate onto the machine first. For printing, the author used PLA with a 0.6mm nozzle and 3 walls, though they note that other filaments and settings should work.
