MiniMagics2 Released

Materialise has released a new version of their MiniMagics software, which is used for management of STL files. What can it do? Here's a short list:

 

• Import and save .STL, .magics or .mgx files
• Compress STL files up to factor 20
• View parts and rotate, pan or zoom
• Detect bad edges and flipped triangles
• Make a section
• Request part information, such as XYZ measurements, volume, surface area or number of bad edges
• Measure parts
• Add text annotations
• Create a print-out of parts 

 

The new version includes features to enable more precise measurements using points, circles and planes, additional viewing options and a "silent server installation option" for sites with locked-down computers. 

Did we say that this software is free (with registration)? It's available in English, German and Japanese versions, but only runs on Windows platforms.
