TransMagic Introduces STL PRO for RAPID Manufacturing

By DE Editors

TransMagic, Inc.’s TransMagic STL PRO is a new software product for the rapid prototyping and direct manufacturing markets that enables anyone to view, repair, and convert 3D CAD models into STL.

TransMagic STL PRO opens and views many 3D CAD formats without needing any additional CAD software. The product gives customers “best practice” options to quickly repair geometry. This helps ensure that the STL models have the quality needed for applications that require watertight geometry, according to the company. STL PRO offers options to control surface deviation and maximum chord length, putting the user in control of the STL file parameters.

"Many people are not familiar with the best practices for creating STL files and may not have the native CAD software available to optimize the model before converting to STL," said Ken Feitz, marketing manager of TransMagic. "With TransMagic STL PRO, manufacturers can use the original CAD file to create an STL model with the exact parameters required for the job, any time they need it. Having tight control over the CAD to STL conversion process will produce accurate parts and reduce wasted time and materials."
