Description

Bring accessibility and clean design together with this fully parametric Braille generator. Perfect for doors, labels, signage, classrooms, makerspaces, offices, and accessibility projects, this model automatically builds a plate containing:

  • Accurate Marburg Medium Braille
  • Optional raised readable text
  • Optional mounting holes
  • Rounded‑corner base plate
  • Fully adjustable dimensions, spacing, and styling

To make your own sign, just press the green customize button. Type your text, tweak the parameters, and generate a perfectly sized plate every time.

 

 

This model is ideal for:

  • Accessibility signage
  • Room labels
  • Personalized gifts
  • Educational tools
  • Makers who want clean, parametric control

Everything is generated mathematically — no manual layout needed. The script calculates plate size, text spacing, Braille cell placement, and hole offsets automatically.

Features

  • ✔ Parametric text input
  • ✔ Accurate 6‑dot Braille cells
  • ✔ Adjustable dot radius, height, spacing, and character spacing
  • ✔ Optional readable text with customizable font size
  • ✔ Optional mounting holes with adjustable diameter
  • ✔ Rounded plate corners
  • ✔ Automatic plate sizing based on content
  • ✔ Clean, printable geometry optimized for FDM

Customization Parameters

  • Text input
  • Show/hide readable text
  • Font size
  • Dot radius, height, spacing
  • Character spacing
  • Plate thickness
  • Corner radius
  • Plate margin
  • Mounting hole toggle + diameter
  • Extra width adjustment

 

Since I’m not a Braille user, I really don’t want to assume I got everything right. If anyone here is willing to share feedback — whether the spacing feels right, whether the dots are too tall/short, or whether the idea is even useful — I’d genuinely appreciate it. I’m happy to make changes or improvements based on your input.
