Flux adds 3D-printable enclosure generation from PCB layouts

San Francisco-based Flux, which builds AI software for PCB design, has launched a feature that generates 3D-printable enclosures directly from a user's board layout. Users describe the housing in the Flux chat window, and the software builds a case sized to the board's actual geometry with latches, screw holes and port cutouts, exportable in standard 3D printing formats. The capability is included in all Flux plans, with a two-week free trial.

• Enclosures are generated from the board's actual geometry and exported for 3D printing
• Cases and assembly instructions update automatically when PCB components change
• Feature is included in all Flux plans with a two-week free trial
• Flux extends its platform from electrical into mechanical design
