In the world of 3D printing, choosing the right file format is a crucial step in guaranteeing the quality and efficiency of your prints. But a multitude of formats available, it can be difficult to ...

STL has been widely accepted as the standard file format for models meant for 3D printing, so manufacturers of 3D printers have designed their products to work with it.

So, it will not only have 3D model information, but will also contain information, like how fast should the print speed work at while printing. This file is suitable for Makerbot 3D printers.

Yes, G-Code can be converted back to STL using a few special tools. However, the conversion process is less than perfect and you probably will not recover the STL file completely. To avoid this ...

Once the 3D model is finished, it is necessary to export it into a file that can be read by a slicer, a software that acts as an intermediary with a 3D printer. And at this point, several choices are ...

The most common reason an STL file may be not quite right is a mechanical connection where some piece isn’t quite as the designer expected, so the 3D model that interfaces with it no longer fits.

3D printing can be a fun and productive hobby and skill, but there can be a lot of confusion around the files involved. Here are some you should know about.

The aim of this project is to enhance the precision and quality of (large) 3D-printed parts for industrial usage. This is done by optimizing STL (Stereolithography) files by compensating for material ...
