Icelandic software startup Euler has released Euler Viewer, a browser-based tool that gives metal 3D printing operators live visibility into their builds at no cost, with no hardware required. Each laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) build generates thousands of high-resolution images, one after every layer. Until now, that data has had nowhere useful to go. Operators running builds remotely have instead depended on remote desktop software connected to the 3D printer’s control PC, a machine that typically shares a factory network with proprietary build files and sensitive intellectual property. Euler Viewer is designed to make both practices unnecessary. Euler Viewer’s layer interface displaying recoat and exposure images with defect annotations. Image via Euler. Secure browser access for live builds The platform streams powder bed images directly to a browser as a build progresses, built on SOC 2 Type II security controls and requiring no connection to the printer’s control PC.…
