You may have a look on our latest release update of VisCAM RP (Version 1.15)
available on our webiste at http://www.marcam.de since today.

With VisCAM RP you could generate slice files with controlled variable slice
thicknesses from STL files (and several other 3D formats like VRML, 3D Studio,
DXF, PLY, VDA-FS and IGES). The slice files can be exported to CLI, SSL, SLC,
F&S, HP-GL or DXF files. Futhermore, BMP or JPG bitmap files with definable
resolution and size can be generated from each indiviudal viewed slice.

VisCAM RP is a complete software suite for all processing steps from CAD towards
RP.

Our base module VisCAM Solid Viewer is offered as freeware:
- view, verify, measure and communicate 3D Models (STL, 3DS, VRML, DXF, PLY and
ZCP)

Further VisCAM RP modules are available for:
- additional import of VDA-FS and IGES
- fixing and editing of 3D models
- colour handling and manipulation for 3D colour printing
- reduce and optimize the triangle number for 3D models
- scale, mirror, rotate, move and duplicate 3D models
- build preparation with part placement, nesting, cost calculations
- slice generation with controlled variable slice thicknesses
- hatch generation for many RP machines
- slice based support generation for stereolithography
- slice export for CLI, SLC, SSL, F&S, HP-GL, DXF

Please don't hesitate to contact us for more informations.
