Does anyone have a source for a multi-conductor coiled cord suitable for connecting an effector plate to a controller board? I'm thinking 8-12 conductors, depending on the wire gauge. Just thinking that I would like something a little bit less "garage-built" on my new build, and looking for an alternative to ribbed split loom or the woven sleeves that are commonly used now..... https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499223#msg-499223 Thu, 13 Aug 2026 01:43:56 -0400 Phorum 5.2.23 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499332#msg-499332 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499332#msg-499332
I have one of these scheduled to land in my mailbox today:

It uses parallel wires for the hotend power, and appears to send up a common 12V and sink the current for each fan/LED/hotend. Since my effector has an LED light ring, thermistor, hotend, and E3D fan, it needs an umbilical cord's worth of wires to the effector plate.....]]> vreihen Delta Machines Mon, 20 Apr 2015 06:55:07 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499287#msg-499287 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499287#msg-499287 www.ebay.co.uk]. You would need to use several strands in parallel for the heater.

I was thinking of relocating my electronics to the dead space near the top of the printer, and a coiled cable from there to the hot end would make a lot of sense.]]> dc42 Delta Machines Mon, 20 Apr 2015 04:07:06 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499223#msg-499223 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?178,499223,499223#msg-499223 vreihen Delta Machines Sun, 19 Apr 2015 22:29:58 -0400
