This is a workflow to read through a CSV file of names, then per line add text to a 3D model of a plant nametag, then save the STL using the plantname. CSV file has 2 fields, Line1 and Line2 of the expected tag Powershell script does the following:

  • reads in CSV file
  • for each line
    • adds the fields to Line variables, and a concatenated name to a filename variable
    • calls an OpenSCAD script, passing in the Line variables, and sending the output to the Line1_Line2.STL fil
  • OpenScad script imports the existing blank STL model of a nametag
    • positions the two lines of text and generates the output STL

Note: Blank lines will be 'printed' at this stage rather than centering the text if there's only one line of name text.

This was created when a request for 1000 individual permanent nametags was made. Doing all 1000 by hand was too daunting, so a more efficient workflow written.

The blank STL nametag here is just as an example - you can use any similar STL file, and just reposition the text a bit in the OpenSCAD script.
