F | Preparing a Print
With your Gigabot
®
profile imported into Simplify3D, you now have the power to create
.gcode from which Gigabot
®
will print your sliced 3D models. For those who have used
open source slicing programs, you may notice one of the best features of Simplify3D; it
slices objects much faster--especially when it comes to large and/or multiple objects.
The general steps for preparing .gcode will be the same for Simplify3D as they would be for
other slicing programs, if users choose not to use it.
For a quick video demonstration of these steps, feel free to watch our video on this process
