3D Printing Software Integrates 3D Manufacturing Format
March 1, 2024
CT CoreTechnologie has joined the 3MF industry consortium and optimized the latest version of its 3D printing software 4D_Additive for the 3D manufacturing format, 3D Manufacturing Format (3MF). The integration of the 3MF open source file format into the 4D_Additive software is another step to strengthen the increasingly important industry standard for additive manufacturing (AM).
The 4D_Additive software is a modern technological bridge between CAD and AM that supports all major 3D printing methods. The tool reads and writes also the modern 3MF data format. The open 3MF printing format makes it possible to send 3D models and production data for AM independently as well as cross-platform to different software, hardware and service providers.
Based on CoreTechnologie's expertise in interoperability, 4D_Additive also enables the reading and writing of all common 3D data formats and offers automatic functions for 3D nesting as well as high-precision slicing of tessellated and accurate CAD B-Rep models. The software was developed for professional use and is suitable for experts and beginners due to a user-friendly, intuitive and ergonomic graphic interface.
CoreTechnologie's software enables direct processing as well as correction and optimization of CAD models to ensure a seamless as well as automated workflow for all major 3D printing processes.
CEO Armin Brüning said: "We are excited to be part of the 3MF consortium and to bring the unique capabilities of 4D_Additive, especially in terms of using accurate B-Rep CAD models for the AM process. The industry is ready to embrace this technology, which brings precision and traceability of the established CAD standard as well as manufacturing information such as 3D dimensions and tolerances to the AM process."
The potential applications for the new technology are diverse and range from the aerospace and automotive industries to medical technology.
