It appears that Fusion 360 will now be able to slice for Elegoo Mars & Saturn printers and export .goo files (see New Additive Machines and Print Settings)

 

I recently became aware of some of Fusion 360's additive manufacturing capabilities. Has anybody sliced their model in Fusion 360? Other than convenience, is there any advantage to preferring Fusion over Chitubox for that task?

 

FWIW, I recently learned that Chitubox will not lay down a raft without also adding supports. I found this out after a couple of unexpected result when I expected Chitubox to print a raft below a collection of 30 small parts with modeled supports. The first time I got a collection of 90 small parts directly printed on the bed I assumed I forget to add a raft. The 2nd time this happened, I realized Chitubox didn't follow through. I then added a token, useless, support and all 90 parts were printed on a raft, just as I wanted.

I don't have one of those printers, but I do use Fusion 360.  I'm curious how it will turn out.

Fusion 360 already supports other printers. Have you used any of the additive manufacturing capabilities? I'd seen some vids on the capabilities, but I haven't yet used them.

 

I used standard modeling tools (sketch, extrude, combine) to create the supports in this
