The PUG
PUG stands for Parametric (or Printed) Umbilical (or Universal) Gland ^^.
I use PUG to replace PG7 on my printer. Why ?
- It suits cables from 4.5mm to 10mm in diameter.
- it is easy to print and re-print, ...
- it allows to easily remove the cable (no need to cut or de-pin)
How to print it ?
ABS/ASA (not filled), no support, 4 perimeters, 5 top/bottom layers, 40% infill. Print a bit hotter than usual (+5°c)
If you plan to use it in unenclosed printer, you could consider PETG or TPU for better layer adhesion.
Is it reliable ?
I have no issue with the current version. To ensure reliabity, print hot enough to avoid delamination. Avoid filled filament CF or GF
Don't want to use Ziptie ?
Two "screws" version exists
- One piece : print twice the same piece, screws are at opposite sides
- Two piece : print 2 different pieces, screws are one sided.
