Description

Overview and production context

Introducing a 3D comb mount model designed for efficient cable marker organization. The model features 10 semi-circular slots, each suitable for wires with a cross-section of 1.5–2.5 mm². Slot depth and width are 1.5–2 mm and 2–2.5 mm respectively, with a center-to-center spacing of 4–5 mm. Wall and partition thickness is 1.2–1.5 mm, and the tape base is 1–1.2 mm, ensuring a flat surface. Outer corners are rounded with a radius of 0.5–1 mm, and inner slot corners are 0.3–0.5 mm, ensuring safety and ease of use.

How to use this model

Use cases, fit and pre-production checks

This model is ideal for 3D printing. Printing with the base down, without supports, is recommended to simplify the process and save material. For best results and to compensate for PETG shrinkage, the slot width/depth has an allowance of +0.1–0.2 mm. The overall length tolerance is ±0.5 mm. The model can also be used as a prop in games or AR/VR applications, adding realism to workspaces or technical scenes. It can be printed at any scale to create functional organizers or decorative elements.
