Slicer
The slicer (slicing software) allows your 3D models to be understood by your 3D printer. Once you have modeled the object you want to print, you obtain it in the form of an STL file. The 3D slicer converts the model into a series of thin layers and generates a G-code file containing all the instructions for the 3D printer in use.
We offer you the 5 most commonly used slicers.
- Step 1 - Download the software.
- Step 2 - Install our profiles following the installation instructions.
If you are using different software, please note that the settings required for the Wanhao Duplicator 12 can be adapted from printers with equivalent volume.
The slicer profiles provided below are basic profiles. They are here to assist you in getting to know your printer. Developed and tested on a Duplicator 12-300 with Wanhao filament.
Caution: Depending on the type of part to be printed and the filament used, the settings will need to be adjusted.
