EnvisionTEC announced the newest iteration of Perfactory Software, Version 3.1 at Euromold.
A number of new features and improvements are available in this version, including a more streamlined user experience, unification between all EnvisionTEC 3D printer families, upgraded support construction capabilities, and integration with the 3D-Bioplotter®.
Dr. Carlos Carvalho, EnvisionTEC’s 3D-Bioplotter specialist, confirms the advantages of the new supports, “The previous version automatically added supports, which worked great for more casual users, but when specific designs came about that deviated from the norm, our engineers needed a much more finite level of control.”
Other changes are also readily apparent. Continued Dr. Carvalho, “Most of our bioengineering customers need to create multiple parts grids. The new updates allow users to then arrange these arrays in both the X and Y axes, and input the distance between parts. It’s all organized onto one screen, and confirmed by using a mouse to click OK.”
Another customer-requested update to the software is geared towards more serious users of EnvisionTEC machines. This new unified version of the software allows users to maintain their settings between different 3D printers, saving both design time, and the output should they wish to switch between the varied functionality of the 3D-Bioplotter, the DLP machines, and the 3SP machines.
