1. Automatic correction of 3D data errors

Depending on the method of data creation, the data may not be suitable for 3D printing. The product is a software featuring automatic error correction of 3D data, optimizing the model configuration as required.

Workflow of 3D printing



2. Ease of Use


Simplistic browser-operated workflow. Simply specify the correction method to complete the correction after data upload. An automatic notification email will be sent when correction is complete.



3. Appropriate correction method can be selected from among four available options.


Software allows for quick specification of conditions for automatic correction depending on the type of 3D models by selecting from among “three simplistic correction types”: “Character” suitable for character models, “Mechanical” suitable for mechanical models, and “Vehicle” suitable for automobile-like models. In addition, the “Pro” option offers an alternate method of data correction. The conditions for automatic correction can be specified according to the intended application.

4. Eight primary functions


THICKNESS (thickness correction)

This function increases the thickness of the thin part of the 3D data. By increasing the thickness, the strength of the object is increased. This function is also effective for 3DUJ series when the color is transparent due to the thin thickness.

CLEARANCE (gap-filling correction)


This function fills in the internal gaps of the 3D data. By filling in the internal gaps, you can increase the strength of the printed object.

HOLLOWING (hollow shape correction)


This is a function to make the shape of 3D data hollow and useful for reducing the weight of a printed object.

CUT TRANSPARENT PARTS (clear part* cut correction)


3D data such as 3D games and videos that are not created for 3D printing may contain clear parts that are unnecessary for 3D printing. This function removes these clear parts.
*Part to be used as guidelines in the process of creating 3D data

TEXTURE OPTIMIZATION (texture data optimization)


Automatically optimizes the placement of texture data. Multiple texture data can be consolidated into a single data, which improves the processing speed during 3D printing.

MIX TEXTURE AND MATERIAL COLORS (material color* activation setting)


This function reflects the material color and texture in the 3D data to the 3D printing data. This function is effective when the design of the object is specified in terms of both material color and texture.
*The color of the material itself.

CLOSE HOLES (hole-filling correction)

This function fills in the holes in the 3D data by automatically adding color and filling in the holes with reference to the texture information around the 3D data.

USE VRM PIPELINE (VRM data* correction)


This function specializes in modifying "VRM data" created for avatars. It performs multiple modifications such as removing clear parts used as guidelines in the creation process and smoothing the surface.
*Dedicated file format for avatars used in VR applications

5. Easy-to-understand confirmation screen


The number of errors, model information, shape and color of the 3D data can be confirmed before and after correction, also allowing for the confirmation of correction result by showing cross-section of the 3D data with the slice-view function.
