CHAPTER 09 / 33

Browse the categorized component library

Find parts by purpose, compare variants, and understand what adding a component creates.

Reusable module cards with component counts and connection notes beside the 3D assembly.
Modules package selected parts and their internal wires. Inspect their connection notes before integrating them with the rest of your robot. View full size ↗

The current library contains 218 generic component models in 17 categories. Search by the part name, description, subcategory, or tags; narrow the results with category and model-fidelity filters. Clear a restrictive filter if a search appears empty. Expand a card for its description and specifications, then choose Add to create a project instance.

CategoryTypical parts and purpose
StructureChassis, plates, enclosures, extrusions, brackets, and mounting hardware.
ComputeControllers, chips, and single-board-computer layout models.
PowerBatteries, supplies, regulators, fuses, and switches.
MotionMotors, servos, wheels, casters, tracks, and actuators.
TransmissionGears, pulleys, timing belts, chains, sprockets, shafts, and lead screws.
WiringWire gauges, cable types, and harness layout parts.
ConnectorsHeaders, terminals, plug/socket families, and cable connections.
SensorsCameras, distance and inertial sensors, encoders, and other sensing layouts.
InteractionDisplays, microphones, speakers, LEDs, and human-facing parts.
ElectronicsResistors, capacitors, IC packages, relays, and circuit-layout parts.
FastenersBolts, nuts, washers, screws, and spacers.
BearingsBearings, bushings, rails, and motion-support parts.
End effectorsGrippers and tool layouts.
PneumaticsCylinders, valves, fittings, and air-system layouts.
HydraulicsHydraulic actuator, pump, and fitting layouts.
ThermalFans, heatsinks, and cooling layouts.
CommunicationsAntennas and communication-module layouts.

An added instance gets its own name, transform, and parameter overrides. Adding two instances of the same model creates two separate parts. Library definitions remain available after an instance is deleted.
