Without a fine-tuned 3D slicer, getting desired results is close to impossible. A 3D slicer software works by cutting the.STL file designed with the CAD software into many different parts. These parts are the layers that the 3D printer creates when prompted for printing. After the model is designed, slicing comes next. And, this is the final. 3D printing slicing software controls every aspect of your 3D print. It translates 3D models into instructions your printer understands. Better instructions mean better prints, so a simple software upgrade makes all the difference in the world.

Object Placement

Import one or more 3D models and place, scale, rotate or duplicate them on your virtual bed.

Slice

Slice your plate with different slicers and optimal settings for perfect results.

The latest stable release of the Repetier-Host for Macintosh comes already with everything you need. Download and run the package to install. If you are using the new Mountain Lion, you need to allow installation of unsigned code!

The software is very easy and intuitive to use. To help you get started, please see our documentation. For specific questions and problems our community will help you in our forum.

Here we show how to program your own plugins for Repetier-Host: http://rhplugins.repetier.com

3d Printer Slicer Software Cura

Repetier-Host is your ALL-IN-ONE software solution, which gives you countless benefits:

Proved with more than 500.000 installations on different computers.

Multi Extruder Support

Repetier-Host can handle up to 16 extruders with different filament types and colors simultaneously and visualize the result with individual filament colors, so you can see your result before printing.

Multi Slicer Support

Repetier-Host includes directly 4 different slicers: Slic3r, Slic3r Prusa Edition, CuraEngine and Skeinforge
If that is not enough, you can use any other slicer you want with Repetier-Host.

After slicing you can see all extruder movements and support structures. You control the whole model, a particular area or individual layers and recognize potential problems before printing – this saves a lot of time and money.

Easy Multi-Part Printing

You can load or duplicate as many models that fit on your build plate and print them simultaneously. The efficient use of the build plate saves a lot of time!

You can arrange them manually or just click the autoposition button and Repetier-Host does the rest.

Gain Full Control over your Printers

Repetier-Host is easy to use, even for beginners, but gives you full control of your printer, slicer and printing process if needed.

This is the reason why you can print any filament in perfect quality like PLA, ABS, PETG, chocolate or metal, if your printer hardware supports it. Biotech companies even print organs with Repetier-Host.

Access and Control your 3D Printers from Anywhere via Repetier-Server

Repetier-Server is the perfect complement to Repetier-Host and already included!

1. You can access and control your printers from anywhere via a browser from any PC, Mac, smartphone or tablet.
2. Watch your printer working via webcam and create astonishing timelapse videos to share or control your prints.
3. Drive multiple printers simultaneously.
4. Repetier-Server runs on Windows, Mac and Linux, even on small and cheap systems like Rhaspberry Pi.
5. Print without running Repetier-Host.
6. Small Memory Requirement – Print files of any size with new file management.
7. Price Calculation – You get the production costs before printing. We even split usage by extruder.
8. Preview Images – Fully configurable high quality rendered images for all models for easy recognition.
9. Heatup and Cooldown Wizard – This feature measures heating and cooling speed needed for accurate printing time prediction.
10. Upload new printer firmware via Repetier-Server web interface – updating was never easier.

Receive Status Messages on your Smart Phone and/or Tablet

3D printing is cool, but it always takes some time and nobody wants to spend all the time sitting next to the printer. This is where the Repetier-Informer app enters the scene. This will give you the desired status reports via fast and free push messages to your smartphone and/or tablet.

In Repetier-Host (for Windows and Linux) and in Repetier-Server you can specify for which events like print paused, stopped, finished, fatal errors, … messages are sent.

With the Repetier-Informer app you are always up to date with your printer status.

Custom Repetier-Host for Manufacturers

Many manufacturers ship their 3d printers already with a custom version of Repetier-Host and use a number of advantages:

• • Get a digitally signed Repetier-Host with your own branding.
  • Get listet as distributor of your Host in “About Us”.
  • Your drivers and all printer, slicer and filament settings are already included, your customers get a PLUG & PRINT EXPERIENCE.
  • Less support questions and satisfied customers with your predefined presets.
  • No personnel and hardware costs for expensive software development.
  • With constant updates the software remains always up to date.
  • You get banner ads on our homepage to show you are an official supporter and get high quality visitors for your website.

PrusaSlicer (formerly known as Slic3r Prusa Edition or Slic3r PE) is our own in-house developed slicer software based on the open-source project Slic3r. It's open-source and you can get it in our Drivers & Apps Package. PrusaSlicer is a feature-rich, frequently updated tool that contains everything you need to export the perfect print files for your Original Prusa 3D printer.

PrusaSlicer is available for Windows, Mac and Linux

PrusaSlicer is based on Slic3r by Alessandro Ranellucci. It's completely free and open-source. Thanks to the strong community and core team of developers in Prusa Research we can continually add new functionality. You can follow the development process on Github.

Slic3r was always known to be powerful and versatile, but some features were difficult to use, if not outright hidden behind obscure menus and dialogs. Our goal with the reworked UI was to expose all the power features while making the UI clear and simple to use at the same time.

PrusaSlicer lets you create support blockers and enforcers. Support blockers are useful when you’re generally happy with the automatic supports, but you want to exclude some areas. With support enforcers, you can turn automatic supports off and select specific parts which need supports.

With the release of our Original Prusa SL1 resin 3D printer, we’ve added masked SLA (MSLA) mode into PrusaSlicer. As far as we know, PrusaSlicer is the first high-quality open-source MSLA slicer available. PrusaSlicer also supports multi material FFF printing with the Original Prusa MMU2S.

Testers and developers at Prusa Research are constantly working on presets for 60+ filaments and resins. We are adding profiles on regular basis, following materials by the most popular manufacturers. You will get new profiles automatically through auto-update function.

3D printing is always about the quality versus the print time. In PrusaSlicer, you can select the layer height for each part of the object separately. Our software takes care of smoothing so the final print looks best as it can and the printing time remains acceptable. Check out the video.

PrusaSlicer includes built-in firmware flasher for Original Prusa i3 printers. You can just connect your printer to computer via USB cable and easily flash the firmware via PrusaSlicer. Don't forget to upgrade your printer regularly! 😉

You can prepare prints with color change directly in PrusaSlicer. Just insert the “pause for filament change” code at layers which you marked in the print preview screen. A preview is displayed instantly so you’ll see exactly how your model will look with color-change.

With Octoprint application, you can control your printer via web browser. PrusaSlicer is now supporting advanced features of Octoprint like upload queue or Cancelobject plugin, which allows you to cancel printing of one particular object on the print bed.
