3Z Analyzer
3Z Analyzer is a Windows application program that runs on the operator’s workstation. It
permits job file viewing, analysis and correction of the job file for pre-build evaluation, repair
and diagnostic purposes. It also allows the operator to view the job file one ‘slice’ at a time
exactly as it will be printed on the system. This tool is valuable for observing features,
searching for potential defects and identifying anomalies from the 3D CAD process that
appear to represent a unified solid model but in fact have internal seams or voids that will
ultimately result in several separate model pieces or other model defects. Anomalous layers
can be removed or replaced to permit successful model building despite CAD model
defects. Break points can be inserted into job files to permit the system to pause when that
layer has been completed on the 3Z Printer.
