Which Data Preparation Software Suits Your Customer?
Magics Print is a group of products offering you all the tools you need to prepare your files for 3D Printing, from file repair to part orientation on the build platform and processing 3D printable slices. Thanks to a one-on-one relationship between hardware and software, you are able to guarantee excellent results for your customers. Each Magics Print product is linked to a technology-specific Build Processor.
The Perfect Support Generation Software for Your Customer
Manual support generation can take a lot of time. Why not offer your customers automated support generation software? With Materialise e-Stage, they can save time by relying on automated support generation for any laser-based machine. The software only generates support structures where needed, and easy break-off points make support removal much easier.
Machine Communication Software to suit your machine
We believe that your machine will give the best results when it is paired with state-of-the-art machine communication software. We have developed a set of Build Processors that will help your customers realize their projects on your machine. No matter what technology you are using, we are able to provide you with a fitting solution to help you realize a faster route-to-market strategy.
The Materialise Build Processor contains:
- Output to an efficient job file format with data structure optimized for Additive Manufacturing
- Unique ‘slice-based’ processing algorithms for handling complex designs
- Zone-based slicing and hatching strategies
- Material-based printing profiles
In addition, all of our Build Processors are seamlessly integrated with Materialise software for data preparation, production planning, machine control, and more, as well as third-party solutions.
The Machine Control Platform you are looking for
The need for broader, more straightforward control over the Additive Manufacturing process keeps growing. That’s why we developed the Materialise Control Platform for machine manufacturers, R&D institutes, and anyone who wants to control or adapt the production process to their needs.
With this modular, software-driven, embedded hardware solution, you can take full control over your laser-based AM machine. It embeds a large amount of AM-specific R&D opportunities, leading to a fast time-to-market and great control over quality and process repeatability. In addition, it is fully compatible with the Materialise Magics 3D Print Suite.
Ready to experiment with your Additive Manufacturing machines?
Control Your Production Process
Is your 3D printing machine equipped with a camera? And what do you do with the build images? Many people don't know how to get the most out of their build images, while these can be a great tool for taking your quality inspection to the next level! Materialise Inspector allows you to quickly process thousands of images in a straightforward way, pointing out areas that require your attention. It will generate an overview of 5,000 images in around 5 minutes, requiring only around 15 minutes of your time to detect errors compared to up to 8 hours before. Start reaping the benefits of your machine camera today!
