Online service cleans up CAD data
The DataFix service provides efficient and economical Iges surface triangulation and STL/VRML fixing help.
It also transforms files that were never originally intended for 3D printing, including those produced by 3D digital content creation software used in animation and architecture.
ZEdit Pro makes these files 3D printing-ready, often with a single click.
"The use of 3D is spreading across industries but users are often slowed or even prevented from creating 3D physical models of their work for design reviews, marketing, sales, entertainment, collecting, clinical diagnosis or visualisation", says Roger A Kelesoglu, Z Corporation Director of Customer Development.
"With ZEdit Pro these users can easily engage in 3D printing without laboring over files or investing in costly, sophisticated file-fixing software".
"ZEdit Pro helps make any 3D data printable and powerful, with a minimum of mouse clicks and the ease of a document printer".
"DeskArtes is proud to be able to help Z Corporation deliver the most efficient and easy to use tools to its customers with ZEdit Pro software", says Ismo Makela, Managing Director for DeskArtes.
"ZEdit Pro is a result of close co-operation between the two companies and we are prepared to create new and even easier to use tools for 3D file preparation for Z Corporation 3D Printer customers in the future".
