    how useful is meshlab?

    in UltiMaker Cura

    Posted

    hi,

    I downloaded meshlab, cool piece of software indeed but... I really don't undertand the large number of filters it has.

    Is Meshlab useful for something in particular (more than converting files) like repairing or visualizing defective meshes?

    How to use it in a 3dprinting common workflow like this:

    1 3d editing (sketchup or blender or sculptris etc etc)

    2 file conversion (original to stl)

    3 slicing

    4 gcoding

    5 printing

    COuld meshlab repair, edit, verify or at least doing something useful more than file conversion?

    thanks!

    hi,

    I am still waiting for my UM but I have a good experience with cnc.

    Verify if the non-roundness is the same if you print on different place of the base, verify if there is non-roundness also in multiply of the measure you told (15-30-45), verify again if the calibration (mm/step) is correct at different scale objects, verify if the mechanical movement is fluid. at the end you could think about swapping the x and the Y motors to see if the squashing is changing axis, try to plot different gcode ( I mean use a pen and not the PLA/ABS) and use simple gcode for different shapes of different sizes. (a simple mach 3 demo could be useful to obtain the gcode)

    last but not least: good luck!

    Come on delivery boy...I'm waiting and I'm starting to be nervous... :lol:
