ideaMaker is the slicing software from Raise3D that turns 3D models into printable files for FFF and DLP printers. You import a model, pick a template that matches your printer and material, adjust the settings you care about and slice, then preview the result layer by layer before anything reaches the machine. It ships with profiles for Raise3D printers and also works with many third party machines, and it is free to use, which makes it a practical choice for both Raise3D owners and general print work.
