Braille 3D Nameplate Generator
Made for names
Type a name and download a 3D printable STL file with raised Braille dots.
For learning and casual use. For official or legal documents, ask a Braille expert to check the result.
Dot view
Every Braille cell, drawn dot by dot.
Real size
Cells at about real Braille size (dot 1.5 mm, cell 6.2 mm wide). Screens vary, so use Print at 100% scale for the exact size.
Dot pad
Tap dots, then add the cell. Click the pad first to use keys: F D S = dots 1–3, J K L = dots 4–6, Space = add.
Practice
Which letter is this cell? Build a streak.
Braille art and bio
Turn a photo or logo into dotted art, or style your Braille name for a bio. This art uses 8-dot Unicode, so it is art, not real 6-dot Braille. Some apps show boxes or blanks for these characters, so test in the app first.
Daily challenge
One new word each day, the same for everyone. Keep your streak going.

About this generator
A Braille nameplate is a small sign with raised dots that spell a name, useful for doors, desks and labels. Type the name and the tool shows the Braille cells, then downloads a 3D model as an STL file that you can slice and print on a 3D printer. Printed dots may not match the sizes of professional Braille signs, so check dot height and spacing and ask someone who reads Braille to test the result.

Frequently asked questions
- What is an STL file?
- A common 3D model format that 3D printing software can open and print.
- Will the print meet accessibility standards?
- Not automatically. Official signs follow rules for dot size, spacing and height. Test the print with a Braille reader.
- What size are the dots?
- The real-size view uses standard dot and cell spacing so you can check the proportions before printing.
