Volex Labs / Forge / Motor mount generator — text to CAD.

Motor mount generator — text to CAD.

Describe the mount — NEMA frame (NEMA 17, 23, 34…) or metric bolt circle, pilot diameter, plate size and fixing holes — and Volex Forge places the pattern exactly and returns a manufacturable STEP, STL or DXF.

No looking up bolt circles, no CAD seat. The pilot bore and mounting pattern are generated to the frame standard and checked before download, so the motor drops straight on.

Frequently asked

Which motor frames are supported?
NEMA 17, 23 and 34 stepper/servo patterns, plus any metric bolt circle and pilot you give in the prompt.
Can I add belt-tension slots?
Yes — ask for slotted fixing holes and Forge replaces the round holes with slots so you can slide the mount to tension a belt.
What does a motor mount cost?
Forge is free to try; individual parts are from £2.99. You only pay when you download a file you want.
Which format should I use?
STEP for CAD and CNC, STL for 3D printing, DXF for laser or waterjet cutting the plate.
