…the 3D models with highest precision and according to CAD engineering standard. With conventional 3D printing software, CAD models are usually triangulated, i.e., converted to STL in the reading process, which makes it impossible to handle or repair the geometry without deviating its original shape. In comparison, 4D_Additive avoids such deviations because of its exact geometry kernel and the fact…
