new version of the package , providing a graphical interface for preparing models for 3D printing (slicing). Based on the model, the program determines the printer's operation sequence for applying each layer sequentially. In the simplest case, you just need to import the model in one of the supported formats (STL, OBJ, X3D, 3MF, BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG), select speed, material, and quality settings, and send the print job. There are plugins for integration with SolidWorks, Siemens NX, Autodesk Inventor, and other CAD software. The engine used to translate the 3D model into a set of instructions for the 3D printer is . The project code is written in Python and licensed under LGPLv3. The GUI is built using the , which utilizes Qt 5.
In new standard profiles have been introduced, automating the settings considering materials such as polycarbonate, nylon, CPE (polyester), and CPE+. The interface provides a display of active scripts for post-processing. A setting has been added to enlarge all holes by applying an offset on each layer, allowing manual adjustment of holes to compensate for horizontal expansion. The preview window now includes the ability to render support material transparently.
