STLWorkbench: Ability to import, view, edit and save STL files in Onshape

viru

Now it is possible for user to import, view, edit and save STL files in Onshape with the help of STLWorkbench. I am very excited about new App (STLWorkbench) which is introduced in Onshape app store recently. STLWorkbench has robust, fast, automatic functionality for analyzing and processing the STL files or meshes which will brings one of the most exciting additions added to Onshape app store yet.


Kindly refer below video for more detail.

Is that your product Viru?  Looks like a handy utility.

@michael3424, I found out yesterday while exploring the app store. It solved my requirement of STL import in Onshape. So I thought to share this information to other users in forum which will be beneficial to everyone.

@viru - thanks for pointing it out; I hadn't noticed it before.

@joe_dunne - have you considered SprutCAM for the App Store?  It's a CAM program written by Sprut in Russia and I know that they have integrated with several other CAD programs, including S$%^&Works.

I think it's safe to assume I have had a conversation with just about every CAM company in existence. Or at least it sure seems that way. We have a free, and open marketplace. Each vendor will make up their own mind as to when and if to participate in it. I agree SprutCAM would be a good addition to App Store. 

I can tell you this. I think you will be happy with upcoming developments in App Store.  I know I have said this before. There is a lot of development taking place behind the scenes. You will see the results of these activities when each is ready to reveal themselves.
