Show HN: Converged – open-source ops layer for CNC shops and print bureaus

1 point

4 months ago

A CNC shop or print bureau has two kinds of work: making things, and everything around it — incoming requests, client messages, order statuses, file handling, queue management, notifications, "is it ready yet?" at 11pm.

Converged handles the second part. It connects to the equipment (3D printers via Bambu/Marlin/Klipper, CNC machines), reads telemetry, manages work distribution across the fleet, and routes all client communication through one interface with an AI chat layer on top.

Built on Bun + Elysia, runs on a $100 SBC (Orange Pi), deploys to k3s. 49 microservices, modular — you activate only what you need. AGPL-3.0.
