MD MESH
A cloud-based SaaS platform for centralized 3D printer fleet management. Monitor, control, and optimize your entire production operation from a single real-time dashboard.
Built with React, Node.js, and Redis, MD MESH connects to your printer infrastructure through Repetier Server — providing live status updates every 5 seconds, automated job distribution, and complete operational visibility across your fleet.
How It Works
MD MESH connects to your 3D printers through Repetier Server, polling each machine every 5 seconds for live status data. Temperatures, print progress, job queues, and error states are collected by a dedicated background service and stored in Redis for instant access. The React-based dashboard renders this data in real time — giving operators and managers a single source of truth for the entire fleet.
Deployed as a containerized stack via Docker Compose, MD MESH runs three coordinated services: a Redis instance for data persistence, an API server that serves both the frontend and REST endpoints, and a poller service that continuously synchronizes printer state. This architecture ensures minimal latency, easy horizontal scaling, and straightforward deployment to any cloud or on-premise environment.
