Add CurviSlicer #4076

CurviSlicer integration

CurviSlicer integration would be an amazing option in the slicer. Printer clearance being set be the printer profile with a setting to change the clearance angle.

CurviSlicer is research project about achieving curved printing on standard, off-the-shelf, 3-axis FDM printers. By curving the layers not only at the top, but also throughout the part. This reduces internal porosity and fragilities, and allows to accurately position the top curved surfaces.

Curvislicer integration in another slicer

CurviSlicer was developed using IceSL, however it can easily be used with different slicers. The optimizer generates a model that has to be sliced 'flat'. The model is called after.stl and can be found in the sub-directory having the name of your model and created during processing. However the slicer has to output a special GCode format. The uncurve tool also needs to know how the 3D mesh spatially relates to the trajectories produced by the slicer, as well as the layer thickness.
