Introducing BLADE: BigRep’s Specialized Large-Format Slicing Software
BigRep is proud to introduce BLADE – a specialized large-format slicing program – to support today’s additive innovations in industrial additive manufacturing at every level. Scaling additive manufacturing to large-format sizes requires far more than just building a big 3D printer. Industrial applications require parts that can be trusted and repeatable results, so all aspects of the printing process must be taken into consideration and redesigned to ensure both part integrity and that printer hardware can handle extruding large amounts of – often abrasive – filament with extreme uptimes.
