When slicing a model for 3D printing, the part is divided into a stack of flat, 2D layers. But there’s an alternative in the form of non-planar slicing, where the layers can follow 3D curves. [Rene K.

When we say non-planar slicing is for the birds, we mean [Joshua Bird], who demonstrates the versatility of his new non-planar S4-Slicer by printing a Benchy upside down with the “Core R-Theta” ...

What Is Slicer Software and How Does it Enable 3D Printing? 3D printing, a type of additive manufacturing, works by creating objects layer-by-layer based on a digital computer-aided design (CAD) model ...

RS has added 3D print slicing as well as a ‘blend’ tool to its free DesignSpark Mechanical CAD package, raising it to Version 4.0. The slicing software – used to prepare files for layer-based 3D ...

Those of you lucky enough to own a 3D printer may be interested in a new 3D printing personal assistant that has been created by Kentstrapper and has been designed to provide an easy way to connect to ...
