UC2 - Cage system Compatibility insert

thingiverse

This is the UC2 insert that fits our cube to the cage system, commonly used in optomechanics. The 30 mm pitch of the rods is a standard feature. It's designed for use with rods that are 6 mm in diameter. However, every 3D printer has its own unique characteristics and when you print the insert, the holes might be too loose or too tight for the rods. In that case, open the insert in the Customizer and adjust their diameter by changing the offset (in millimetres). The offset is a value added to the diameter in the range of (-1 mm, 1 mm).
