Good day,
We're considering using AB3d for our project, but I'm having trouble finding all the features that we need. We are trying to make 2-part molds for 3D objects to print. We need to:
Could AB3d handle these? Which functions cover which?
We're considering using AB3d for our project, but I'm having trouble finding all the features that we need. We are trying to make 2-part molds for 3D objects to print. We need to:
- import a STL file
- mesh offset (inflate the mesh, not scale it)
- flatten the offset mesh at the top and bottom
- add the original mesh with inverted normals to the mesh offset
- add air channels (boolean-subtract some cylinders) to create the mold
- calculate a split line and break the mold into two parts
Could AB3d handle these? Which functions cover which?
