In the upper right hand corner of the STL options page, you will find units. Make sure you select your desired units. Neat Tip, once you set this, all future exports will use the same settings. No need to go in and change the settings for each export. [3d_export.png]

Set your output unit to millimeters, that should do it. The resolution dictates file size, and amount of facets. Too low and you will have a “low res” version too high and the file will be huge.
-
Check your units, what units are you using in Solidworks? Make sure that they are the same as the ones on the website. you can change units on the fly in the lower right corner.
-
Make sure your export units and the 3D Hubs import units match exactly. STL files do not have units, so you have to make sure that if you are exporting your file in mm you set the import units to mm also.

In solid works or another surface modeling program you need close all holes, couldn´t have any gap between surfaces. the best way is use knit surface in solid works. So 3D printing software understands what is inside and what is outside and can generate a g code correctly. Also is good always repair…

Hi, you can only print solid with 3D printer. Surfaces in SW has a thickness of 0. But you can create a solid with your surface by using the “thicken function” in SW. ==> 27- SolidWorks Surface TUTORIAL: THICKEN SURFACE - YouTube Good luck, AIM

Yes there is! I do this all the time, and it’s a great help for 3D printing. In solidworks, go to Sabe as STL, and then select options. One of them will be to save a single part file or save is multi-part file. Hope that helps!
-
If you select the “Options” when you are “Saving As” STL File, you will see the option of Save all components of assembly in a single file. Hope this helps. [Capture_11.PNG]
-
Yes, you can save the assembly as .stl, and select the option: “All bodies” when asked what you want to do saving the stl
-
In Solidworks, save the assembly as an STL file the same way you would do for a part EDIT: Only works if the parts are touching, sometimes…

i use multiple single edge razor blades, make sure the bed and part are cold, or else you will warp the edges/corners, start a razor blade in each corner and gently tap them around the print to loosen it. Usually it will just pop off, if it still doesnt, i take the handle of a screw driver and tap i…
