(3DPrint.com) — California-based Trimble and Belgium’s Materialise are partnering to connect it with Materialise’s Cloud Services. With this integration of resources, users are able to flag files that are printable, saving hundreds of thousands of users inestimable amounts of time in the future. Using SketchUp 3D-modeling software will be that much easier for users who are busy with both creating and sharing.
The new features also take some of the frustration factor out of 3D printing as well as the intimidation factor for novices, in ensuring them less chance of confusion and failed prints. Users are able to analyze and fix files as needed. They are then processed by Cloud Services as high-quality STL files, which can be downloaded from 3D Warehouse. “Through our combined efforts, Trimble and Materialise aim to make 3D printing technology more accessible to the design community,” said Mike Tadros, SketchUp web and mobile product manager at Trimble.
