Dual-Extrusion 3D Printing Management Software
The Dual-Extrusion 3D Printing Process
Step 1: Add Your File
Step 2: Prepare Your File
Step 3: Preview and 3D Print
Using your 3D Design software, save your file as an STL or OBJ file type. Then import the file into MakerBot Desktop Software. If you plan on using the Dual-extrusion capabilities make sure your file has the designated components
Desktop software will provide intuitive options to manipulate the file to your desired size, scale, rotation, and placement on the build tray. You can also experiment with dual-extrusion by setting the extruders to print in ABS or dissolvable filament
Here you will be able to adjust you 3D printing settings such as infill and resolution as well as seeing how support structures will be created. You will be able to get a preview of build time estimates and material consumption
