Hello everyone, I recently purchased the Form 3 3D printer and I want to use it to print models that I have created using a 3D scanner and C4D modeling software. I usually use Chitubox as my slicing software. I wanted to ask if Chitubox is compatible with our Form 3 for the pre-printing preparation.
Hi Kely, we recommend using our PreForm software for printing on the Form 3. PreForm is specifically optimized for the highest success rates for your prints, taking full advantage of the unique capabilities of our printer and materials. It includes material-specific support structures for achieving the best print quality and integrity.
PreForm is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to learn and use, regardless of your experience level with 3D printing software. If you have any questions about getting started with PreForm or how to use it, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Hello! The Form 3 3D printer is designed to work seamlessly with Formlabs’ own slicing software, PreForm. Unfortunately, Chitubox is not compatible with the Form 3. You’ll need to use PreForm for the pre-printing preparation of your models. PreForm is specifically optimized for Formlabs printers and will ensure the best results for your prints. You can export your models from C4D and import them into PreForm to prepare them for printing.
