Materialise Introduces the Latest Version of 3-maticSTL: 3-maticSTL 9.0
Friday 08. August 2014 - Belgian Additive Manufacturing pioneer Materialise is thrilled to announce the launch of 3-maticSTL 9.0. 3-maticSTL is an innovative, flexible software tool that allows for design modification and simplification, 3D texturing, remeshing, forward engineering, and much more - all on the STL level.
With this release, Materialise took many of the suggestions of its customers into account. The main priorities for the users were to focus on rendering, robustness, usability and new design functionalities. This updated software enables the creation of watertight designs that will ensure the quality of 3D Printed parts.
New key features and improvements include:
New rendering with a ruler to allow faster manipulation and visualization of models
Automatic rib pattern – creates a clean rib structure that conforms to the 3D model
Point-based patterning – create an overall pattern in one click.
Randomized porous structures
Conformal structures that follow the geometry of the 3D model
2D UV page for easy positioning of the 2D texture
Slice-based texturing – export a 2D texture to the Magics Build Processor, which handles the slicing of even large 2D textures
