New open-source software revolutionizes 3D printing with multiple materials

A new open-source software tool is changing the way engineers design and print complex 3D objects. Developed at the University of Colorado Boulder, the program-called OpenVCAD-lets users easily design 3D-printed objects made from multiple materials, blending engineering precision with the flexibility of coding. Created by Charles Wade, a Ph. D. student in computer science, OpenVCAD is [.] The post New open-source software revolutionizes 3D printing with multiple materials appeared first on Knowridge Science Report.
