🔧 Modular Cable Clamp – Parametric & Customizable (OpenSCAD)

Keep your cables clean and organized with this modular cable clamp – perfect for workshops, control cabinets, or home setups. The design is fully parametric and can be easily customized using an OpenSCAD script to fit your exact needs.

🧩 Features

• 🔄 Modular design – flexible and scalable for any setup
• ⚙️ Parametric configuration via OpenSCAD
  • Clamp quantity
  • Cable diameter
  • Dimensions
  • Opening angle
• 🔩 Countersunk screws supported for a clean finish
• 📐 Flexible mounting options
  • Side mounting
  • Or through the clamp (space-saving option)
• 🔒 Optimized clamping force
  • Achieved via a tapered upper section
  • Implemented by shifting the circle center

🧵 Suitable for Various Cable Types

Some typical examples:

• 🔌 NYM cable (3x2.5 mm²) → approx. 9 mm
• 🌐 CAT8 Ethernet cable → approx. 5.5 mm
• 📺 Coaxial cable (TV) → approx. 6.5 mm

Thanks to the parametric design, any cable diameter can be configured.

🧠 Best Practice Settings

For optimal clamping performance:

• 📏 Opening angle: 70°
• 📉 Tapering: 1 mm

These values provide a great balance between easy installation and secure hold.

🖨️ Print Recommendations

For strong and durable parts:

• 🧱 Wall lines: 3
• 🔳 Infill: 15–25%
• 🔷 Infill pattern: Gyroid
• 📏 Layer height: 0.2 mm
• 🪶 Nozzle: 0.4 mm

🧪 Material Recommendations

Use durable and temperature-resistant materials:

• ✅ PETG
• ✅ ABS
• ✅ ASA

⚠️ PLA is not recommended, as it tends to lose clamping force over time and may deform under load.

🛠️ Applications

Perfect for:

• Cable management in workshops and garages
• Network cabinets & electrical installations
• DIY projects & smart home setups

💡 Note

Thanks to the OpenSCAD-based workflow, this model is ideal for makers who like to tweak and optimize designs. Just adjust the parameters, export, and print! Use the Testbox in the customizer to change the number of cables. Separate the quantity with an “,”. For example: 2x 9mm cables → [9, 9] or 3 different: [4.5 , 7.5 , 9.0].

Enjoy printing and organizing your cables! 🚀
