Software
Each Fortus system includes Insight and Control Center job processing and monitoring software.
Insight software
Insight software prepares CAD STL output for 3D manufacturing on Fortus machines by automatically slicing, creating support structures and material extrusion paths. For maximum control, users can manually edit parameters that determine the appearance, strength and accuracy of parts, as well as specify the speed and material usage of the FDM process.
Functions:
- Optimizing the placement of the printed part to achieve maximum strength and the smoothest possible surface
- Customizing support materials for quick and easy removal and best material utilization
- Programming pauses into the printing process, for example to insert hardware or circuits
- Modify toolpaths for fine-grained control over element properties
Insight also includes Control Center software
This sophisticated software application communicates with user workstations and Fortus systems to manage tasks and monitor production status. Design, engineering and manufacturing teams can network and share their 3D manufacturing capabilities for maximum efficiency and performance.
