Slicer (3D printing) A slicer is a toolpath generation software used in 3D printing. It facilitates the conversion of a 3D object model to specific instructions for the printer. The slicer converts a model in STL (stereolithography) format into printer commands in G-code format. This is particularly usable in fused filament fabrication and ...
Ultimaker is a 3D printer -manufacturing company based in the Netherlands, with offices and assembly lines in the US. [1] They make fused filament fabrication 3D printers, develop 3D printing software, and sell branded 3D printing materials. [2] Their product line includes the Ultimaker S5 and S3, Ultimaker 3 series, Ultimaker 2+ series and ...
FreeCAD is a general-purpose parametric 3D computer-aided design (CAD) modeler and a building information modeling (BIM) software application with finite element method (FEM) support. [2] It is intended for mechanical engineering product design but also expands to a wider range of uses around engineering, such as architecture or electrical ...
Developed by. 3D Systems. Initial release. 1987. Type of format. Stereolithography. STL is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. [3][4][5] Chuck Hull, the inventor of stereolithography and 3D Systems’ founder, reports that the file extension is an abbreviation for stereolithography. [6] An STL file ...
OctoPrint was created by Gina Häußge in 2012, [2] who initially developed the software to support her first 3D printer. OctoPrint [3] was forked from Cura, and is available under the same AGPL license. Development is hosted on GitHub. [3] Between August 2014 and April 2016, Spanish smartphone manufacturer BQ financially supported OctoPrint ...
3D printing or additive manufacturing is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. [1] [2] [3] It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, [4] with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer.
