Description
Dodecatron V3 Generator STL File Pack
Build the next evolution of the Dodecatron air-core generator platform.
This downloadable STL file pack is designed for makers, experimenters, and off-grid energy researchers who want to build and test a compact, scalable generator housing using 3D-printed components, copper coils, neodymium magnets, and AC-to-DC rectification.

- The Dodecatron is built around a multi-coil stator layout intended for experimental generator testing. My current prototype uses a 12-coil stator split into 3 phases, with rectified DC output tested under load. In early testing, the completed stator produced 1.8V across a 15-ohm load using a 2-watt input, giving a measured loaded output of approximately:
P = V² / R
P = 1.8² / 15 = 0.216 watts
This design is not just about printing a part — it is about giving builders a physical platform to explore coil geometry, phase wiring, rectifier layouts, load testing, and scalable generator development.
What This Design Is For
This STL pack is intended for:
- Air-core generator experiments
- 3-phase coil layout testing
- Neodymium magnet rotor/stator research
- AC-to-DC rectifier output testing
- Off-grid energy prototyping
- Educational demonstrations
- Mechanical/electrical learning projects
- Content creators and makers building experimental generators
Why This Design Matters
The Dodecatron is designed to be scalable. As the generator housing, magnets, coils, and wire diameter are increased proportionally, the system may allow stronger flux linkage, lower internal resistance, and improved power transfer under load.
In theory, doubling the geometry of the generator while increasing magnet size and wire diameter can significantly increase the output potential because:
- voltage can rise with increased coil area
- thicker wire can reduce internal resistance
- larger magnets can improve magnetic coupling
- better load matching can improve usable output
- rectifier losses become less dominant at higher voltage
This file pack gives you a starting point to test those ideas for yourself.
Important Notes
This is a digital STL file product only. No physical parts, magnets, coils, rectifiers, screws, bearings, or electronics are included.
This is an experimental generator platform. Performance will depend on your print quality, coil winding, magnet strength, rotor balance, RPM, wiring configuration, rectifier choice, and load resistance.
Results are not guaranteed. This design is intended for research, education, prototyping, and experimental development.
Recommended For Builders Who Want To Learn
This is perfect for anyone interested in:
- 3D-printed generator systems
- alternative energy experiments
- practical electromagnetic testing
- coil winding and phase wiring
- real load measurements
- improving generator efficiency
- understanding voltage, current, resistance, and power
The Dodecatron is still evolving, and this file pack gives you access to the same kind of experimental foundation I am using to push the design forward.
Print it. Wind it. Test it. Improve it.
This is how ideas turn into working hardware.
