4. Export

The Export tab provides options for exporting your orthotic designs and sending them to production. It's organized into three main sections: Export, Order, and Produce.

Export​

Export STL​

Exports the insoles as separate files in STL format.

Account Deduction

When using this option, one pair of insoles will be deducted from your account.

Export Design​

Exports the file in .ldes format, which can be sent to a third party to open, check, modify, and export the design.

Account Deduction

This option does not deduct any insoles from your account.

Order​

Visibility

This section is only visible when your account is configured with at least one outsource partner.

Account Deduction

Ordering will not deduct any insoles from your account.

Save Order​

Saves the design in .l3z format as a production item. Unlike the design export, these files cannot be modified.

Place Order​

Uploads the design to the order/outsource platform of your selected outsource partner.

Produce​

Account Deduction

Placing in production will not deduct any insoles from your account.

Produce Now​

Adds the item to the production queue and immediately opens it as a production item, so in the next step it can be exported. This opens the interface for generating gcode for milling or preparing slicing for 3D printing.

Place in Production​

Adds the design to the production queue for later processing. This option is typically used when milling multiple pairs of insoles on a larger table.
