Raise3D

Files MUST:

• be named correctly

  • The format is YourEID_Mon-DD_UniqueName[# of parts]

    • Mon = 3-character month abbreviation

    • DD = 2-digit day of the month

    • UniqueName = a 10-character-max unique name for the 3D print job

    • # of parts = the number of parts in the idea file

  • Examples:

    • eid123_Jan-02_coolparts[4]

    • eid123_Mar-25_projectcool[1]

    • eid123_Apr-13_omgfinally[3]

• be less than 11” x 11” x 23”

  • a 1/2” (12.7mm) of empty space around the edge of the tray is required

• have a minimum feature thickness of 1/8"(0.125)

  • We will not print any files containing feature thickness under 1/8"

  • 1/8" is the minimum for simple and rectilinear geometries on Raise3D

    • More complex geometries (such as curves) should be thicker to avoid printing issues

    • Your print may break if complex features are 1/8"

• be repaired in Netfabb

  • You must provide a screenshot of step 11

    • If you change your STL files in any way after you run the repair in Netfabb, you need to run it through again

  • We will not print any files without an associated screenshot that shows your models have been repaired

• be in IDEA format (grouping of all your parts scaled)

  • if your IDEA file contains more than one physically independent model, each must be its own STL*

  • Models must show only green checkmarks

*This means that all components of your idea file/group are within their own STL file. For example: if you expect 3 standalone models, each of those models needs to be its own STL. The example screenshots below show copies of the same model, but the rule still applies for unique models.

Good Example:

This user needed multiple copies of a model, so they made duplicates of their STL in ideaMaker. Note how each copy is individually selectable.

Bad Example:

This user needed multiple copies of a model, but they made their duplicates in Rhino and exported all of them together as a single STL. Notice how all copies aren't individually selectable.

Stratasys

Files MUST:

• be named correctly

  • The format is YourEID_Mon-DD_UniqueName

    • Mon = 3-character month abbreviation

    • DD = 2-digit day of the month

    • UniqueName = a 10-character-max unique name for the 3D print job

  • Examples:

    • eid123_Jan-02_coolpart

    • eid123_Mar-25_projectcool

    • eid123_Apr-13_omgfinally

• be less than 14" x 10" x 14", scaled in inches

  • A 1/4” (6.35mm) of empty space around the edge of the tray is required

• have a minimum feature thickness of 1/16" (0.0625)

  • We will not print any files containing feature thickness under 1/16"

    • Even the 1/16" features are only made possible due to the use of soluble support material

  • 1/16" is the minimum for simple and rectilinear geometries on Stratasys

    • More complex geometries (such as curves) should be thicker to avoid printing issues

    • Your print may break if complex features are 1/16"

• be repaired in Netfabb

  • You must provide a screenshot of step 11

    • If you change your file in any way after you run the repair in Netfabb, you need to run it through again

  • We will not print any files without an associated screenshot that shows your model has been repaired

• be exported to STL format, one model per file!*
