Software Specifications
1: 3D Printer Software: The 3D Printer system must include Insight and Control Center job processing and management software and be compatible with GrabCad Print for use with job reports, scheduling, and remote monitoring.
GrabCAD Print: GrabCAD Print simplifies the traditional 3D print preparation workflow and provides intelligence around printer usage, so your team can get quality prints, faster. Print directly from CAD, organize print queues, monitor material levels and work with detailed views of your model. The tray and slice preview feature support adjustments before going to print.
Insight: Insight Software lets you print directly from CAD formats, eliminating the STL conversion. It can optimize productions with advanced control options that automatically adjust support structures and material extrusion paths, while providing the ability to pause production in order to change materials or embed hardware or circuitry. Control Center lets you seamlessly share project information between users, creating a more streamlined, efficient workflow.
2: 3D Scanner Software: The 3D scanner must include Artec Studio Pro and Geomagic for SolidWorks Bundle.
