As technology advances, 3D printing has become widely applied in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and design. In 3D printing, there is a standard file format—STL files, which can simplify data structures while enhancing the efficiency of design and production processes. It is compatible with nearly all 3D printers and design software. If you are […]
Higher versions of AutoCAD can open older DWG files, but not the other way around. For instance, AutoCAD 2017 cannot open DWG files from the 2019 version. However, not everyone has access to the latest version of AutoCAD. Besides, upgrading to the higher version may involve additional expenses. If you receive a CAD file created […]
How to view STL files for 3D printing and additive manufacturing? As a standard format, STL are generated by CAD software to describe the surface geometry of 3D models. Given such technical applications and requirements, STL files cannot be directly viewed. Instead, they need a tool called an STL viewer. Desktop software, online tools, and […]
STL, an acronym for STereoLithography, is a 3D file format to represent the surface geometry of a model. It typically consists of small triangular facets. Therefore, an STL editor allows you to add, delete, or manipulate triangular meshes to meet design and technical requirements. In CAD design, meanwhile, an STL file editor can optimize geometry […]
2D CAD online tools are usually a good starter for anyone to get down to 2D drawings and designs without any software installation. You can access these web-based services from any device with an internet connection. Better yet, you can start or continue designing whenever an idea pops up in your mind. That also makes […]
3D modeling software is widely used among industrial equipment, consumer goods, plastic molds, CNC machining, automotive parts, and so on. There is plenty of free 3D modeling software for beginners, meaning you can practice and gain the 3D modeling skills you require to produce a final product of your own. Tools that are developed in […]
3D printing is a revolutionary technology that can bring virtual 3D models to life. Nowadays, it has been widely used in various fields, spanning from industrial design and healthcare to education, art, and beyond, offering endless possibilities. However, to turn your ideas into reality, you need to use advanced 3D printing design software to create […]
3D CAD software has opened a new door for designers, allowing them to enter the barrier-free three-dimensional space. With a tool like that, you can observe at any angle as you like, rotate, enlarge, or finely carve the 3D model in real-time, just as intuitive and flexible as holding a real object. 3D CAD design […]
The advancement of 3D modeling and printing technologies has transformed the visions of many designers into tangible realities, bringing significant changes to the realms of creativity, design, and manufacturing. However, professional CAD software is typically costly, posing a challenge for beginners or those looking to save on expenses. This is where free CAD software for […]
