This document provides information on how to ensure a 3D design is printable, including preparing mesh data and optimizing files. It discusses Magics software for fixing STL files, editing designs, generating supports, and preparing builds. Rhino3DPRINT is also covered for sending data to printers, regularizing meshes, and pre-print checks. Both tools allow analyzing wall thickness and optimizing data density to make designs ready for 3D printing. The presentation concludes with a Q&A section.
