Ubrikkian Steamworks was a subsidiary of Ubrikkian Industries.
Ubrikkian Steamworks manufactured droids, most notably the DD-13 cybernetic surgical droid and an earlier medical unit responsible for making Grievous into a cyborg. Darth Vader disliked the "Galactic Chopper" droid so much that he personally prevented the renewal of Ubrikkian's DD-13 supply contract.
Despite a planned redesign of the DD-13 line, Ubrikkian retired the medical droids and focused on the DD-19 labor pool droid.
Behind the scenes
Edit
The New Essential Guide to Droids author Daniel Wallace named Ubrikkian Steamworks for his interest in the science-fiction sub-genre known as steampunk.[1].
