How to Design STL Files for 3D Printing in Your CAD Program
Try these tips to optimize your design for STL-the common CAD format used in additive manufacturing We know you have a range of CAD programs and file format options to choose from when designing and sharing your part designs. The STL file, short for stereolithography, is the primary CAD file format that’s used foradditive manufacturing (3D printing)design projects. This tip covers how to effectively design 3D-printed parts for STL.
