Slic3r has an extensive manual that gives information from print configurations to troubleshooting and advanced topics like command line usage. It has direct integration with Octoprint (which I’ll discuss next in this article) so when you slice files from your computer, you can directly upload them to OctoPrint and get printing quickly. The newest version is 1.3.0 which was released in May 2018 and it includes many new features such as new infill patterns, USD printing, experimental support for DLP and SLA printers and much more. One example of this is the honeycomb infill function within the app, which creates sound structural shapes all through the print internally. Slic3r is an open source slicer software which has a great reputation for modern features that are unique and hard to find in other slicers. It gets the job done very effectively and is very useful to getting your prints just how you want them. If you’re in the 3D printing industry, you most likely have heard about this software already.
You have the simple beginners side of things, and the more advanced custom mode that gives users complete customization of your objects.Ĭura allows you to upload a 3D model file then slice it, creating usually an STL file that is broken down into G-Code so the printer can understand the file.

This is Ultimaker’s free slicing software, probably the most popular one due to it’s open-source nature and beginner-friendly features. Using the right slicer can make a huge difference in the final quality of your prints so try a few out and choose a good one that suits your needs. You can set quality, material, speed, cooling, infill, perimeters and several other settings in a 3D printer slicers by yourself.
