The Powerful CAM Solution for Metal 3D Printing: 2Build
The in-house developed, integrated metal 3D printing software solution optimizes the workflow from the 3D part to the successful print. Print exactly what you want—just the way you want it.
Reduce Preperation Time
Set up your prints faster with automated parameters, ready-to-use strategies, and seamless import of common 3D file formats.
Optimize your Printing Results
Achieve precise, high-quality prints with intelligent calculations and clear visuals for easier print evaluation and optimization.
Minimize Post Processing
Save time and materials with accurate G-codes, optimized parameters, and streamlined workflows from start to finished part.
Optimized Workflow from the 3D Part to the Successful Print
Strategy Editor
Tailored Print Strategies
Print strategies are the recipes for 3D printing. Each powder type and manufacturer requires a tailored strategy, which can be easily created and managed in the cloud with full parameter control.
Key Features
- Easy creation of new print strategies
- Cloud-based management of print strategies (auto update of new strategies)
- Complete control over all parameters (e.g. hatching, contour)
Support Editor
Smart Support Configurations
The right support structures are crucial for successful 3D printing. Our software provides full control over support configurations with automatic and manual generation, plus cloud-based strategy management.
Key Features
- Automatic generation of rod and lattice supports based on part properties
- Manual design and removal of supports
- Cloud-based management of support strategies
Design of Experiments
Parameters Development Module
Developing new printing strategies is time-consuming and complicated? Not with our Parameters Development Module: automated DoEs, smart density calculation, and optimal point analysis with visual results.
Key Features
- Smart and automated generation of DoEs for the most critical process parameters
- Automatic part density calculation using microscopic images and smart image processing
- Calculation of the optimal working point and graphical evaluation of the results
Full Integration
Fully Compatible with Your Integrations
Easily import STL, 3MF, and other common 3D formats, convert G-code via CLI, and export all native elements—contact us if you need another format.
Key Features
- CLI import and G-code conversion
- Export of all native elements created in the software
G-CODE Approach
Customizable Print Data
This is example copytext. We are passionate about Additive Manufacturing and the ability to create solutions based on individual needs and product-visions. We came together to reduce the complexity in 3D printing.
Key Features
- Our software exports print data in G-CODE format
- Each laser line is represented by a simple G-command
- The same applies to laser settings, BeamExpander, and laser speed
- This allows for easy reproduction of effects
Project Report
Detailed Print Job Reports
Along with the finished G-CODE, 2Build exports a detailed project report with an overview image, precise time and cost calculation, and a numbered list of all printed parts.
Key Features
- An overview image of the printed parts
- A precise time and cost calculation, including material, energy, and gas costs
- A numbered list to identify the individual parts
