3Data Expert Free - free and easy 3D CAD viewing, checking and repair

3Data Expert Free is entry level tool targeted for viewing, verifying, repairing, dimensioning and communicating 3D geometry information. 3Data Expert Free allows you to input triangle models, create consistent topology, check errors, repair normals, stitch and fill gaps as well as output STL data for 3D printing without any cost.

Save time by validating your 3D model data

3Data Expert Free is a software tool for CAD designers who want to provide perfect solid data to downstream applications. Import STL models into 3Data Expert Free. Locate costly errors and correct them using your own CAD system. Verify the integrity of the data before sending it to AM, 3D Printing, CNC or CAE systems.

View, verify and communicate faceted 3D models

3Data Expert Free can input and output all relevant faceted 3D file formats for Additive Manufacturing. Automatic model verification, measuring and clipping commands help you to easily decide if the model can be printed or not.

Input various faceted models: STL, 3MF, VRML, ZPR, OBJ, DXF, PLY, 3DS, Collada, FBX and proprietary 3DE Files. Output following faceted models: STL, 3MF, VRML, ZPR, DXF, PLY and 3DE Files. Automatically orient triangle normal direction for correct 3D Printing. Viewing with rotate, pan, zoom and clipping commands, real-time slices for internal geometry checking. Measuring with distance, radius, angle, wall thickness and 2D Drawings commands. Export bounding box, area and volume for build time estimation.

Upgrade to professional STL repair tools.

Expert Series product suite offers a modular path to full STL file repair and manipulation. Start from model repair with 3Data Expert Free, and when necessary, continue to full model manipulation with 3Data Expert offset, hollow, drain hole and support commands. All DeskArtes products offer state-of-the-art model preparation functionality with reasonable prices. 64 bit implementation allows the handlng of the largest and most complex 3D models for Additive Manufacturing, Simulation and 3D Printing.
