Text-to-CAD Generation
CAD__TEXT_TO_CAD turns a natural-language description into parametric CAD. It sits at the start of the CAD and manufacturing chain, so its output can continue into CAM planning or G-code nodes.
Nodes used
CAD__TEXT_TO_CADParametric text-to-CAD generation from natural language prompts.
CAD__OCR_DRAWINGOptional. Read dimensions from an existing drawing to include in your prompt.
CAM__PLANOptional next step. CAM plans for manufacturing workflows.
How to set it up
- 01Add CAD__TEXT_TO_CAD and write the prompt: shape, key dimensions and units.
- 02Run it in the workspace and inspect the generated model.
- 03Refine the prompt, or connect CAM__PLAN or PRINT__GCODE to continue towards a machine.
Be specific
Give units, hole sizes, wall thickness and tolerances in the prompt. Generated geometry should be checked in your own CAD tool before anything is made from it.
