What does the Xpress3D browser plug-in do?
The plug-in measures your parts statistics and checks the file for unmatched edges or bad geometries. Once this is completed, the plug-in then sends the file statistics, not your part geometry, to our server for quoting. When you decide to order, the plug-in then compresses your STL file into a proprietary format and uploads it to our server. The plug in allows you to obtain many quotes through Xpress3D without anyone even seeing your proprietary data. Only when you decide to buy does the plug-in send the file to the appropriate location. The plug-in works with Internet Explorer 4.0 or later.
