Slicer

command line STL file slicer for 3D printing

Command line program to slice STL files and use ezdxf to write each layer to a seperate DXF. The program creates a directory to place the layer DXF files.

Make something in CAD

Then export your CAD model to a STL file

Use MooseSlice CLI to slice STL file along arbitrary axis

Automatically pack the layers into sheets for Laser or CNC cutting

Dependencies

You need the following python packages:

ezdxf version 0.6.2 https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ezdxf/0.6.2

There is a later version available, 0.6.5, which should work as the API is the same.

Roadmap

• Add slicing along user defined direction
• Add sheet packing output
• Replace brute force O(n^3) slicing with elegant O(n^2)
