How to Create a Good STL File from Your Solid Modeling Software
How to Create a Good STL File from Your Solid Modeling Software
A Good "STL"... what's that?
STL shows the triangled based mesh of a 3D Design. What's the difference between a CAD and an STL file?
A CAD is defined by its parameters, whereas an STL file is defined by triangles made of vertices and normals. The CAD file is therefore more precise, whereas the STL is a close approximation. CAD is focused on designing for traditional manufacturing, and does not include information...
