Data
Additive Manufacturing Industry News
This site aggregates recent news articles about the additive manufacturing industry from various sources and runs a sentiment analysis using the VADER model to check the pulse of the industry.
I built it with Python, BeautifulSoup, NLTK, Astro.js, cron, Github, and Netlify. It updates automatically once a day.
In the future, I plan to add more news sources, fine-tune a sentiment model, and provide more market analysis and visualizations.
CAD Dataset
I released a dataset of 3D CAD files in STEP and BREP formats which includes primitive shapes such as cubes, spheres, cylinders, rectangular plates, round plates, cones, and pipes.
There are 10,000 of each shape in each format and in a variety of dimensions, and each file is named using natural language that describes the shape and its dimensions.
In the future I’ll add more shapes, as well as features like holes, fillets, and chamfers.
The data is released under the open-source MIT license and could be used to train machine learning models.
Car Seat Finder
This site collects current product and pricing data from a dozen or so different car seat manufacturers, then presents them in an easy-to-navigate table to help shoppers.
This is the third version of the site. I built it with Node.js, Google Cloud Functions, FaunaDB, Github, and Netlify. It updates automatically once a day.
It is still active but no longer maintained.
Canary Historian & Dashboard
Canary is a data storage and dashboard solution for manufacturing plants. By collaborating with IT resources and coordinating local site resources, I deployed this system at my site to collect and store data from machine PLCs and display real-time information for production monitoring. My team built several dashboards like the one shown (proprietary information redacted).
