3D Software

3D software are an important part of 3D printing as they allow users to perform a number of critical tasks. Among these are modeling software, which are used to design the parts that will be 3D printed. However, many of…

As you may know, before starting a printing process, it is first necessary to obtain a 3D digital model of a part. Perhaps the best-known modeling method is computer-aided design (CAD). It can be used to create individual models with…

Today, there are many different types of 3D modeling software for different types of users, from beginners to professionals, depending on their needs. CATIA (Computer-Aided Three Dimensional Interactive Application) software is a complete multi-platform solution for computer-aided design, manufacturing, engineering,…

Simplify3D is a slicer designed to help you import a model from online platforms, modify it to your liking, and send it to your 3D printer as G-code so that the object can be printed. Although some programs, such as…

Created in 2007, Grasshopper is an algorithmic modeling tool that runs inside Rhinoceros CAD software. Previously an installable plug-in, the tool has been fully integrated into Rhino 6 and all subsequent versions. An easy-to-learn CAD program, Grasshopper is based on…

When it comes to 3D printing, one of the most critical steps is obviously having a 3D model to print. There are a number of different ways these can be obtained including CAD and other modeling software and scanners, but…

As many of you will know, in order to get a piece 3D printed, you need a slicing software, more commonly known as a slicer. The slicer converts the 3D model into a G-code file that will provide the 3D…

3D printing requires for a 3D model to be sent to a slicer, before being sent to the 3D printer. There are sites such as Thingiverse where a variety of such models are available to download. But if you want…

As we know, the use of artificial intelligence in our daily lives is becoming more and more accessible. In fact, more and more companies are developing AI software for all kinds of fields and utilities. One of the most popular…

One of the most popular 3D modeling software is Rhinoceros 3D, also known as Rhino. Based on NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational Basis Splines) geometry, this surface modeling software is commonly used for architecture, prototyping, engineering, jewelry and industrial, graphic, naval and automotive…

In the world of FDM/FFF desktop printing, the importance of the 3D model and the platform it is stored on is almost as important as the printer itself. From CAD programs to slicer programs, software is key to a successful…

Astroprint is a software platform designed to help users to manage 3D printers It was launched in 2015, and is available through applications like Google Play and the Apple Store. It is open source, free and available on all operating…
