Objet Studio Software
Objet Studio software for the Objet30 3‐D printing system consists of two
main sections:
•
Objet Studio
•
Job Manager
Objet Studio
With Objet Studio, you prepare source files for production in Objet30 3‐D
printers. Objet Studio offers you a wide variety of file‐preparation options,
but always consists of the following basic procedure:
1. Inserting one or more objects on the build tray
2. Positioning the object(s) on the tray
3. Configuring object and tray parameters
4. Saving the tray configuration as an objtf (Objet Tray Format) file
5. Sending the objtf file to the Objet30 3‐D printer for production
Using Objet Studio to perform these tasks is described in detail in chapter 5,
Job Manager
Job Manager is different for client workstations and for the computer
connected directly to the Objet30 3‐D printer.
•
In Objet Studio installed on the directly‐connected computer (server),
Job Manager displays the queue and status for all jobs sent to the 3‐D
printer by the client computers on the network, and allows editing and
manipulation of all jobs.
•
In Objet Studio installed on client computers, Job Manager displays the
queue and status only for jobs sent to the 3‐D printer server from that
computer, and allows the user to edit only these jobs.
Client computers can be connected, via the local network, to different
Objet30 3-D printers, but only to one at a time. The client Job Manager
displays the status of the 3-D printer to which the client is currently
connected.
