3D Voronoi Generator

Provide your 3D model and get freely a voronoied version of it within 1-3 minutes. Very convenient as manually this is a very tedious process in any 3D modeler, and not much software has that as an inbuilt feature.

You can provide files in the following 3D formats: STL , PLY, DAE, OBJ or OFF

The output format will either be STL or PLY in binary versions.

The voronoi(ed) result will be in STL or PLY (Polygon File Format, mostly used in 3D scanners).

For the dev part, FYI, this service uses Admesh, Stltools, Meshlab, Blender and VTK to generate these voronoi 3D objects.

Disciplines: 3D printing, Industrial design, Architecture, Jewelry design.
Free alternative to Autodesk Meshmixer, Blender, Rhino Grasshopper.

Workflow: You upload a mesh and download a tessellated version, which takes about a minute. The site states it uses Admesh, Stltools, MeshLab, Blender and VTK behind the scenes. You do not build the pattern yourself.Workflow: A desktop tool for triangle meshes with patterns, lattices, interior tubes or channels, hollowing, remeshing, booleans, offsets and print support structures.Workflow: A 3D creation suite with a Python API, so it can be scripted for geometry tasks.Workflow: A graphical algorithm editor included with Rhino, where form-generation algorithms are built from components without programming. Scripting in C# and Python is also supported.
Inputs and outputs: Accepts stl, stla, stlb, ply, off, obj, dae and 3ds. Delivers PLY (recommended) or the larger STL. Uploads are capped at 20 MB.
Parameters and control: Only a few settings: fewer, standard or more holes, and a new layer thickness of plane only, thinner, standard or thicker. Plane only gives a non-manifold mesh that cannot be printed.Parameters and control: Many editing tools, applied by hand on the mesh.Parameters and control: Parametrisation is possible through its scripting API.Parameters and control: Fully parametric, since algorithms are defined by the user and can be adapted.
Platform and installation: Browser service. Nothing to install, but the model is uploaded to the service. Check confidentiality before sending proprietary geometry, as the site links a separate privacy page.Platform and installation: Installed application, with a custom installer.Platform and installation: Installed application on a local computer.Platform and installation: Runs inside Rhino, which is available for Windows and macOS.
Cost and status: Free to use.Cost and status: Free, but no longer in development. Autodesk says it will not be supported moving forward, yet has no plans to retire it, and recommends Fusion for many of its mesh features.Cost and status: Free and open source under the GNU GPL.Cost and status: Included with a Rhino licence. The vendor states there are no maintenance or subscription fees.
