In their own words
BCN3D Stratos
BCN3D Stratos is free slicing software for preparing 3D prints with BCN3D Omega, Sigma, and Epsilon printers. It imports STL, 3MF, OBJ, and AMF files, then lets users translate, scale, and rotate parts. Validated printing profiles are included, while expert users can adjust more than 500 parameters. For IDEX technology, the slicer supports multi-material models, support structures, mirror mode, and duplication mode for two print heads. Layer View displays print sections; X-ray View reveals internal parts and hidden geometries. Completed G-code can be sent to a networked printer or saved to removable media such as an SD card. Other listed options include gyroid infill, brim and raft adhesion settings, and bridges. BCN3D says Stratos is based on the open-source slicer Cura. It runs on 64-bit Windows 10 or higher, Mac OSX 10.11 or higher, and Linux, but is not available for older 32-bit systems. The product page links to a knowledge base, onboarding video, and feature tutorials. The listed plan is free.
