Slicing software
Slicing software is a tool used in 3D printing that converts a digital 3D model into instructions a 3D printer can follow. It "slices" the model into many thin horizontal layers, generating a detailed plan for each layer's material deposition. This process allows the printer to build complex objects layer by layer, ensuring precision and quality. Think of it as a recipe that guides the printer step-by-step to create the finished object, handling settings like layer height and print speed to optimize results.
