It seems that nowadays artificial intelligence<\/a>, or AI as it is more commonly known, is on everyone\u2019s lips. And though there is significant discourse centering on ethical issues with the technology, it is undeniable that AI could be a great tool for many different industries, including 3D printing. Indeed, AI has a role in many different aspects of 3D printing. To shed light on how it is being used, we have compiled the following list of AI software that is compatible with 3D printing<\/a>. From design to management and quality control, check out the solutions already available on the market below.<\/p>\n

Software for Management and Maintenance<\/h2>\n

InTinker Uses AI for Better 3D Printing Calibration<\/b><\/h3>\n

inTinker was founded by Trevor Haas and Matt Milanek and is a software that uses AI to make 3D printing calibration easier. Available for both OEMs and hobbyists, this software seeks to create a calibration process that can lower the barrier of entry into 3D printing thanks to customized pre-configured downloadable calibration files and smart suggestions for slicer settings. Essentially, the algorithm works by drawing on results from users, as they test settings and submit feedback it grows smarter and allowing it to in turn give suggestions for calibration while printing parts. Considering the large role that calibration plays in ensuring that printing errors such as with stringing will not occur during the printing process, it could be a useful tool for beginners and experts working with desktop 3D printers.<\/p>\n
