The EIGER software offline

Keep 3D printing software up to date in offline mode

The ability to access the latest software features is one of the primary reasons customers choose cloud-based applications. Because software vendors are able to push updates to the cloud as soon as new code is available, cloud users can immediately benefit from new and improved features.

When cloud connectivity isn't possible, users often have to rely on locally installed software that may not have been updated in years. When on-premises software is frozen in time, the benefits for users of the software are also lost.

So what does a user have to do?

Software updates close this gap between cloud and on-premises software. Regularly installing new software versions allows offline users to easily keep up with the cloud.

At Markforged, most of our customers use Eiger for 3D slicing and printing in the cloud. For companies that need to store their or their customers' part information on local systems, we offer Offline Eiger, which operates 100% offline. For the past year, Offline Eiger has been available as a subscription to help our customers bridge the gap between cloud and on-premises software with quarterly updates that provide the latest features and material support.

Below are examples of new features for offline Eiger users that take advantage of the seven software updates released so far:

  • Materials: Onyx FR-A and Carbon Fiber FR-A, Precise PLA, Stainless Steel 17-4 PH v2 to meet the requirements of additional applications of additive parts
  • Printer: FX20 with Onyx, continuous fiber reinforcement and ULTEM™ 9085 filament for large, strong parts at high temperatures
  • Speed: Next Day Metal and Turbo Print for faster delivery of parts
  • View: New internal view for better visibility of toolpaths and volumes, as well as improved workflows when adding fibers or modifying groups
  • Settings: Support overrides to exclude certain areas where support might be problematic
  • Infill: Gyroid infill for high shear strength and low weight (one of five available patterns)
  • Surface finish: Unidirectional track guidance and medial axis filling for smoother top surfaces
  • Structure: Folders and subfolders for the hierarchical arrangement of the parts
  • Connection: LAN connection for sending print jobs to connected printers in private networks
