Dan Topjian, Sr. Application Engineer at MarkForged likes to keep things neat and ordered. While cleaning up the shop, Dan decided a reinforced nylon and Kevlar\u00ae cable clamp was exactly what he needed. Figuring that someone else must have solved this problem already he went to Thingiverse and found the\u00a0Ratcheting Cable Clamp<\/a>\u00a0by\u00a0MechEngineerMike<\/a>. The design is great \u2013 a good solution from the community.<\/p>\n This design is two pieces linked by a post. The MarkForged Eiger Software imported the two STLs from Thingiverse.<\/p>\n Once the STLs were imported, Dan clicked the \u201cUse Fiber\u201d toggle and selected Kevlar. Dan selected Kelvar\u00ae because it would flex well as the clamp was opened and closed. Fiberglass and Carbon fiber would be stronger but would probably be too inflexible for this application.<\/p>\n The software automatically added two layers of fiber to make a sandwich panel. Dan decided to add a third layer of fiber to increase the strength of the clamp.<\/p>\n \u00a0 The first of the two clamps is already at work in the shop. You can see it holding it's own here.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Composite Cable Clamp Part 1 Composite Cable Clamp Pa<\/b>rt2
