OpenSCAD is a free and open source software that uses scripting to design 3D objects. [16] Many 3D printers can be upgraded with 3D-printed parts. Thingiverse users produce many improvements and modifications for a variety of platforms. Popular examples of community-based 3D printer projects include the RepRap project and the Contraptor project ...
Cults was founded in 2014 and is the first fully independent 3D printing marketplace. [1]In 2015, La Poste established a partnership with Cults and 3D Slash to develop impression3d.laposte.fr, a digital manufacturing service, allowing users to have objects printed and shipped to them on demand.

It was created by David Braam who was later employed by Ultimaker, a 3D printer manufacturing company, to maintain the software. Cura is available under LGPLv3 license. [ 3 ] Cura was initially released under the open source Affero General Public License version 3 , but on 28 September 2017 the license was changed to LGPLv3 . [ 4 ]
There are many techniques for converting a point cloud to a 3D surface. [12] Some approaches, like Delaunay triangulation , alpha shapes , and ball pivoting, build a network of triangles over the existing vertices of the point cloud, while other approaches convert the point cloud into a volumetric distance field and reconstruct the implicit ...
A desktop FFF printer made by Stratasys. Fused deposition modeling was developed by S. Scott Crump, co-founder of Stratasys, in 1988. [6] [7] With the 2009 expiration of the patent on this technology, [8] people could use this type of printing without paying Stratasys for the right to do so, opening up commercial, DIY, and open-source 3D printer applications.
ModelCenter, developed by Phoenix Integration, is a software package that aids in the design and optimization of systems. [citation needed] It enables users to conduct trade studies, as well as optimize designs.
