## Cables_inDNA.

M

My family has been rooted in the cable industry for generations. My grandparents worked at F&G (Felten & Guilleaume), one of Germany's most traditional cable manufacturers.

This passion for cables was passed on to my father, who has spent his entire life in the cable industry and now serves as the managing director at KLZ.

A few years back, I helped my dad by creating 3D cable models for KLZ's website. Regular photos just couldn't cut it – they looked boring and missed all the cool details. So I perfected my 3D skills and turned it into my business. Now we create the most detailed cable visuals on the market.

## My Guiding Principles

The core values that drive my approach to 3D visualization and client work.

### Technical Precision

Every detail counts. I make sure each cable model is spot-on technically – because that's how you do it right.

### Balancing Technical & Visual

These principles guide the creation of visualizations that are both technically accurate and visually compelling. The goal is to create renders that engineers can trust for their precision while marketing teams value for their visual impact.

My technical approach to creating cable visualizations using Blender's powerful node-based workflow

Cable_Generator.blend / Geometry Nodes
Node Editor
Press enter or space to select a node.You can then use the arrow keys to move the node around. Press delete to remove it and escape to cancel.

### Workflow Features

Custom add-ons for cable-specific modeling
Advanced material creation with Cycles renderer
Fully parametric cable structures
Instant adjustments to conductor count
Specification-driven modeling
Automatic color coding based on standards
Physically-based material creation
Custom shader development

#### Technical Note

Blender's node-based material system allows me to create physically accurate cable materials that respond realistically to different lighting conditions.

Using Geometry Nodes, I can create a single cable model that can generate hundreds of variations by simply adjusting parameters like conductor count, insulation thickness, and twist rate.

### Understand

Every project begins with a deep understanding of your needs, specifications, and goals. I take the time to learn about your product, its technical details, and how you plan to use the visualizations.

1
Detailed technical specification review to ensure accuracy
2
Understanding your marketing goals and target audience
