Searching FAQ for 'What is an STL file?'
An .STL file is a standard file format used by most additive manufacturing systems. The file contains the surface geometry of a 3D part as triangles, which in turn communicates with a 3D slicer and the 3D printer. As .STL flies are made up of triangles, if the file resolution is too low, faceting occurs and rounds may not appear round on your physical part. At Ogle we will catch this at an early stage and advise you to re-export the file, so you get an accurate part, true to your expectations.
