In this edition of 30 on 3D our Production Supervisor, Mike Stone, talks about why we use Magics at Purple. Materialise Magics is an STL editing software that allows us to import a wide variety of different file types and make modifications, as well as repair, and then export those files for printing.
“So why do we use Magics at Purple? It’s easy. It was designed and optimized to fix STL files. And it saves us a huge amount of time with projects across every technology, from FDM to PolyJet to SAF.”
To learn more about Materialise Magics, stop by our office or give us a call at 949.474.9222.
