10 free 3D printing software downloads

3D print models are typically distributed in a file format called STL. 3D printer slicer software is needed to convert an STL file into G-code, language which can be understood by a 3D printer. It’s called a slicer because that’s literally what it does; it chops up the 3D model into thousands of flat 2D layers that the 3D printer can fabricate as a physical object.
Cura is the standard slicer software for all Ultimaker 3D printers, but it can also be used with most other 3D printers, including RepRap, Makerbot, Printrbot, Lulzbot, and Witbox. It’s fully open source and can be extended via a plugin system.

This 3D printing software is very easy to use and allows you to manage the most important 3D print settings in a clear interface. Start in “Basic” mode for rapid onboarding, where you can choose reconfigured printer quality settings. When you need more precise control over the print quality settings, switch to over “Expert” mode.
You can also use Cura as 3D printer host software for direct control over your machine, but the 3D printer needs to be connected to the PC for the duration.
