UC2 - Cubes with base plates
Founding developers Benedict Diederich and René Lachmann
$179.00 USD
The UC2 cubes are the basis of a groundbreaking system for rapid prototyping and endless customization of optics for science. The clamp connection of the click-and-go cubes offer precise alignment and easy prototyping. From microscopy to advanced and automated imaging workflows, UC2 empowers optics technology.
The injection molded UC2 cubes and base plates can be used to build any of the published UC2 designs. And they give you the freedom to tinker with any design you may have in mind. Required holders for lenses and other optical components can be laser cut or 3D-printed using the CAD designs provided by the open source documentation (see above).
KEY FEATURES
- Click-and-go cubes: Effortless assembly for rapid prototyping
- Injection molded, accurate and precise.
CONTENTS
- Set of empty UC2 cubes with 20 or 100 cubes
