Slicer
Pantheon Slicer is how we convert our 3D models into g-code the HS3 can use to make parts. Slicing software is equivalent to CAM or programming in the CNC world. The slicer takes parts and “slices” them into layers that the printer prints. The slicer generates the exact path the nozzle follows. Things like wall thicknesses, top and bottom thicknesses, speeds, support structures etc. are all configured in the slicer.
...
Once installation finishes you can launch the application. The config wizard can be skipped with the “x” button as the HS3 is the only option for configuration.
