Show HN: Filament winding simulation for advanced composites

Hi HN!

Filament winding is a manufacturing process in which reinforcement (like carbon fiber) is wound around a mandrel to make strong lightweight structures. Since leaving my previous startup in composite materials I have been working on a tool called CamyPro.

When you click "Find Patterns" the tool runs a wind simulation and finds optimal fiber paths on the geometry. You can view the coverage analysis of various patterns by clicking "Show Coverage".

I am steadily increasing the complexity of the geometry. Perhaps working up to shapes as complex as a bike frame in the future.

Hope this is of interest!
