3DPrinterOS is an easy way to use complete software packages for 3D printers (Firmware, Software, Cloud platforms etc.). The system covers every aspect of 3D printing and advanced manufacturing workflows, solving the fragmentation of many disparate 3D printers and their associated software. 3DPrinterOS is like Android for 3D printers. Users can go directly from CAD to STL/OBJ/Step, prepare a build tray allocation, slice for 150+ types of desktop 3D printers or queue for 1200+ industrial 3D printers. The system can also monitor real time prints and share projects and printers with your colleagues or friends.

Is 3DPrinterOS a cloud software?

3DPrinterOS can be deployed in the cloud and on local servers. Its deployment depends on its intended use. 3DPrinterOS has successfully deployed private internal instances within F2000 companies and government institutions without an internet connection.

Is 3DPrinterOS a slicer?

3DPrinterOS is an operating system that allows you to run multiple slicers and software on one platform. It supports many different 3D printers, and firmware.

How secure is 3DPrinterOS?

3DPrinterOS has the highest security levels for end-to-end encrypted 3D printing workflows in the industry. It is also partnered with cloud solution providers like Microsoft, Google and Amazon, in order to offer a pre-approved IT solution that can easily be deployed in any enterprise. For example, Microsoft’s Azure cloud is internationally recognised as being a secure cloud private platform, and it is installed in over 90% of Fortune 500 companies.

Rapide 3D and 3DPrinterOS collaborate to make cloud 3D printing accessible

Rapide 3D has signed with 3DPrinterOS to bundle their entire suite of printers moving forward with 3DPrinterOS’ cloud operating system. Starting with the Rapide 200 and 200 XL, Rapide owners will have access out the box to all the features of 3DPrinterOS. Rapide users will be able to connect their printers to the cloud via Windows, Mac, Ubuntu or Raspberry Pi.Since opening to the general public in mid-March, 3DPrinterOS has seen over 4000 hours of printing across 1200+ printers in 68 different countries and 517 cities. 3DPrinterOS’ operating system opens up a whole new world of possibilities with their app engine, which powers features such as “Magic Fix” which can analyze, repair and orientate files for printing on specific machines, greatly reducing the chances of failure and wasted material for new users.

“3DPrinterOS will revolutionize the 3D printing industry with their cloud based operating system for 3D Printers. What Windows achieved in the personal and desktop PC environment in the late 80’s and early 90’s, 3DPrinterOS is about to do in the 3D printer space. 3DPrinterOS will launch 3D Printing to the masses with its intuitive interface and user-friendly commands and Rapide 3D wants to be a part of this both now and in the future” said Rapide 3D CEO Ethan Hunt.Users will be able to manage, edit, fix, slice, share & print objects via phone, tablet, computer or any other smart device. Connecting Rapide printers to the cloud also gives remote control and live viewing of printers from anywhere there's an Internet connection available. Rapide owners will get expanded access to cloud storage for their files, walkthrough videos, customer support and other materials to help get more out of their printers.[caption id="attachment_1190" align="aligncenter" width="640"]

Rapide users will be able to access Cloud Slicing as well as other features[/caption]“We design, develop and produce hardware that is functional, reliable and innovative so it makes sense for us to partner with 3DPrinterOS so we can focus on making our machines even better” said Hunt. “Rapide 3D is excited to be partnering with 3DPrinterOS as we see this as the way forward for all 3D Printers of the future. “
