My version of the new LTT flexible cable arches

Download and adjust the parameters to suit your magnets and application! Should work with pretty much any magnet size. The parametric bits are a lot less robust than the solid arches, so you might need to be careful.

Features

  • All the features of LTT flexible arches

  • Fully customizable 

  • Easy to print

How to use

These models are all parametric, and can be easily adapted to suit your magnets or application. 

  1. Download the files

  2. Open in Fusion

  3. Select Modify -> Change Parameters

  4. Modify parameters to suit!

  5. Press 'OK'

  6. Export & Print model as normal

Printing

Like the solid version, these are easy to print, if you're familiar with printing TPU!

85A TPU works really well, but you can work with 95A too. Any material should work for the rigid parts, but styrene based plastics (ABS and ASA) work best.

Instructions

Print the magnet mounts first (the two discs) with your rigid filament. Nothing special, standard settings should be fine.

For the flexible component, you'll need to add a print pause step when you reach the first layer of the overhang.

When the print pauses, insert your magnet mount prints from earlier and resume.


Once the print finishes, you can install your magnets.

Hardware required


I found the 25x~7mm pot magnets with countersunk M4 screws worked well, the same ones I used for the rigid versions.

You can also glue them in if you prefer!
