3D printing software suite

2D nestingCADfor dental applications

Gamechanger for additive manufacturing ointly developed by Photocentric and CoreTechnologie, the innovative Photocentric Additive software suite has been designed for Liquid Crystal Magna. The software doesn’t just handle the file to make it ready for printing by slicing and supporting, it does something very special… It allows you to modify the exterior of the surface of your part to not just remove the layer lines, but also add the texture of your choice. 3D textures Select your desired surface area with a single click, and the program applies that surface texture from the database. The Texture Module provides more than 5,000 different 3D texture structures. You can upload their own texture or logo. The size, resolution, position and height of the structure can all be adjusted. CAD engineering With conventional 3D printing software tools, CAD models are already triangulated and converted to an approximate and imprecise STL description, so that further operations like model repair, result in significant deviations from the original shape. In the B-Rep kernel of Photocentric Additive you can create a quality check, repair and preparation of models in exact accordance with the exact geometry. Nesting and optimisation Photocentric Additive delivers intelligent 2D nesting. The extremely fast nesting function uses superfast multiprocessing to provide ultimate automation. You can specify the number of parts and minimum distance. The build volume is filled automatically, so the optimised number of components is placed on the platform. Support generation The automatic analysis tool identifies areas where support structures are required.
