CAD Files

Here you can find the necessary .stl parts for the different modules (cubes) and setups (APPs).

  • For complete setups go to APPLICATIONS
  • For setups compilations go to TheBOX
  • For beginner's tutorials, how-to guides and more guidelines go to TUTORIALS
  • For information on the electronic parts go to ELECTRONICS
  • For information on the software go to the dedicated repository UC2-Software-GIT
  • For the Bill of Materials go to RESOURCES
  • For anything else, have a look at the SITEMAP

This is a growing list of available modules coming along with tutorials and assembly instructions. The most important part is the core building block as you find in every modular toolbox. A detailed description of the UC2 cube can be found here.

General Naming Convention and Structure of UC2

UC2 version history

When you search through the repository, you find that not all the images show the same cubes and baseplates. This is due to the evolution of the basic building blocks. In order to help you not to get lost, in the Modular Developer Kit is a short explanation of how the cubes evolved.

v3 = 3D-printed AND Injection Moulded (November 2020)

This is the current version. The cube comes in two versions that are fully compatible with each other. You can either print all the baseplates and cubes and assemble and connect them using screws and magnets, or you can use the IM cubes and baseplate puzzles that connect via the lego-like pins.

The IM cube is shown on the left, the 3DP (3D-printed) cube is on the right. Find the details about the base cube in ASSEMBLY_CUBE_Base.

Printing

The .stl files of the respective modules can be downloaded and printed. Have a look at our TUTORIALS section for some introductory information regarding 3D printing, shopping for components and more.

List of available Modules (CUBEs):

Each folder contains a step-by-step tutorial which describes how the module has to be assembled.
