We built the geometric intelligence layer for manufacturing and AI. Blazing fast, critical manufacturing data from just a CAD file. Features: - Quick DFM & feature checks - Rapid thickness, clearance, and draft analysis - Deterministic, configurable rulesets for mfg method - CNC (3ax & 5ax), Casting, Additive, Molding... - API and MCP We know it works, the API already powers Digital Metal's Quote engine, cutting the typical lead time for casting quotes from 2 weeks to just 10 seconds. What others are already using it for: - RL generative AI CAD models to produce manufacturable designs - a design Engineering copilot - a pre-sales tool for large orders of parts. - other instant quote mfg businesses. Shipped today. API/MCP integrations available.show more

Here's a view of our DFM playground: Look at our base DFM rulesets, query feature data, and understand local thickness, clearance, and draft.

it doesn't like my fable-generated humanoid

maybe a bit too many parts for this version 😂

@aphysicist Super cool!

🤘

@aphysicist This looks great!

@aphysicist Thanks chase!

@aphysicist Cool!

Very nice

loved it. how did you make the video btw?

Good old fashioned screen recording and adobe premiere

good job. authenticity will win :D

@aphysicist This is the way. Amazing time for manufacturing

Can it handle more than metallics so far? E.g. 3D prints or fiber reinforced composites

Im not super familiar with the design rules around composites. But we certainly could cook up a ruleset to apply with all of the data we get.

That would be great to see, I’ve worked at and spoke to a lot of companies who struggle with composites DFM

@aphysicist Looks awesome

This is a fantastic tool for auditing designs, for humans and especially with agents now that many are trying to make agentic CAD a thing. Great contribution!

thanks man, you get it!

incredible

Awesome, may need to integrate this.

@aphysicist OCCT?

@aphysicist A tiny bit. Bulk analysis is all custom. OCCT is far too fragile

@aphysicist Was wondering for file import more than geometry analysis. Have you considered getting access to a data import kernel that can handle more file types?

@aphysicist Yeah we will do something for sure. Although I think everyone should be using step files

This looks awesome! I'd love to collaborate!

AI cutting CNC lead times is real — we use it. But AI doesn't replace the machinist who reads the contract and catches the print error before it scraps a flight-critical part. Smart shop, human inspection. That's how Ohio does it. AS9100D.

API or I can run this in your webapp. ?

This is exactly the kind of layer manufacturing needs before quoting. A CAD file should expose thickness, clearance, risk, method fit and downstream actions. Makr3D applies that idea to 3D print fulfilment with Print Intelligence:
