3Dprintsy workflow notes

Where Autodesk Netfabb fits in a print project

  1. 01

    Identify the machine, process and software package required for the job.

  2. 02

    Inspect imported geometry and prepare it for the target build.

  3. 03

    Review the manufacturing output and preserve a record of the preparation settings.

These are planning steps, not machine settings. Use your printer and material documentation for the actual production process.

Before you choose

Understand the tradeoffs.

Availability and capabilities depend on the current Autodesk offering. Verify the exact bundle and machine workflow instead of relying on older standalone product descriptions.

Common questions

How should I evaluate Netfabb for a print operation?
