3D20 Printer - Dremel Software???

[Jtheisen79]

We recently purchased the Dremel 3D20 Idea Builder and are really excited to see what it can do. The preprogrammed builds (T Rex, frog, school bus, child dice, etc) are great, but we feel it can do much more. When reading the instructions and looking online we are unable to find the Dremel software that it mentions both on the outside of the box AND in the manual. 

Where can this software be found so we can download it? Are there any other softwares that are compatible with this 3D20 printer that we can use?

Thank you for the information.

The software we provide for use with the 3D20 printer can be found on our direct distributors website. Link below.

The software Dremel provides is called Slicing Software. This takes your already designed files (.stl file) and turns them into a file type the printer can read, which is a gcode file.

Dremel doesn’t offer design software. We do offer the software to bring YOUR creations to life.  

Any design (CAD) software can be used, as long as it can saved as an .stl file type. 

Tinkercad, (www.tinkercad.com) is not affiliated with Dremel in any way, but it is a free design software that is compatible.

Does this information help you?
