| QuickARC announced the release and commercial availability of Scale Model 3D Printing from Google Sketchup Models as a new feature in its free 3D CAD model viewer called QuickARC 3D.
QuickARC's free 3D computer model viewer, QuickARC 3D, now reads Google Sketchup files directly, and then converts them to the 3D Print format without any user manipulation. The Google Sketchup user can now easily turn design concepts captured in Sketchup into real physical 3D printed scale models with a simple 'Save As' operation within QuickARC 3D.
Google Sketchup is in wide use by Architects and Designers due to its easy-to-use interface, and its low cost. QuickARC 3D is compatible with all versions of Google Sketchup, including the free version, Google Sketchup 6, and the professional version, Google Sketchup Pro 6.
"Our mission is to make it easy for our clients to buy custom scale models. We recognized that most Sketchup users don't consider printing scale models of their designs due to the incompatibility between the Sketchup format and the 3D Printing format. QuickARC 3D and the direct Sketchup conversion capability, now opens wide the 3D Printing door to thousands of Sketchup users," stated Mark Mackie, Executive Vice President of QuickARC.
QuickARC 3D with the Sketchup-to-3D Print capability is available now for free download in the Architect's Zone at www.QuickARC.com
