Objects
You can use the Split Object feature to produce objects larger than the tray
area by dividing the model into separate parts. With this feature, you produce
only a specific section of a model.
To split an object:
1. Select the object.
2. From the
Object
menu, select
Split
.
3. In the
Split Object
dialog box, enter the values to determine how Objet
Studio will divide the object. You can divide an object along any of its axes,
by entering either exact measurements or the number of parts.

The composite parts are saved as new
stl
files with “Part 1,” “Part 2,” etc.,
added to the original file name.
Note:
Before printing the newly created
stl
files, it is recommended that you
check them for defects in an STL-repair application, such as Magics™, by
Materialise
®
.
