How to convert STL to GCODE
Converting a .STL file to .GCODE lets you open the content in software that prefers the .GCODE format, though some details may change compared with the original. We are still putting together the list of programs that handle .STL files.
A full step-by-step guide for this conversion is on the way; the information above is drawn straight from our database.

.GCODE
G-code File
A .gcode file holds machine instructions -- coordinates, speeds, temperatures, and tool commands -- produced by slicer software for a 3D printer or CNC machine. Open it in Ultimaker Cura,…
