Finish a 3D Printed Robot-Arm Cable-Guide Channel
For finish 3D printed robot arm cable guide channel, map a ridge in the cable path left by a bridge or support before removing material and protect cable bend radius, insulation clearance, mounting-hole position and guide retention. Start with a narrow safe-edge scraper followed by a backed abrasive strip; use a slim rotary point for a mapped high spot inside the channel only for mapped local access. Support the part, inspect after each short pass and stop when the cable binds, a retaining tab thins or a mounting hole is touched. Approve it only when the reference cable moves through the guide without abrasion or a change in bend path.
