API(?) with 3D Print Exchange

5 Mar, 2021 07:01 PM

When I did a search for library models in the medical domain on GrabCAD, I only found one model. I think it would be challenging for GrabCAD to play catch up with other services in the medical domain. It would be great if GrabCAD could leverage the existing 3D Print Exchange platform that is hosted by the NIH.

I'm not sure about feasibility, but as a user, if I searched GrabCAD, it would be helpful if it also included results for 3D Print Exchange within its own results.

An example of an analogue is yeggi is able to search through cgtrader, myminifactory, and thingiverse for 3d files.

This is might be a great feature, but I think the main issue is that the CAD models are not labeled right. If you are searching for a particular type of model, you will most likely find it in GrabCAD library.

For example, if you will search for a bone model, you will find many medical models.
