SuperSlicer
SuperSlicer converts 3D models into G-code for FFF printers or PNG layers for mSLA printers.
What SuperSlicer is
SuperSlicer converts 3D models into G-code for FFF printers or PNG layers for mSLA printers. It accepts STL, OBJ, AMF and 3MF files and is available for Linux, macOS and Windows. The project describes compatibility with modern printers using the RepRap toolchain and firmware based on Marlin, Prusa, Klipper and others. SuperSlicer is a free personal fork of PrusaSlicer, which is based on Slic3r, and is licensed under GNU AGPL version 3.
Print preparation includes controls for surface quality, infill, thin walls, hole dimensions, overhangs, brims and seams. It supports multiple extruders, objects with separate settings, variable layer heights and different infill patterns. Generated tests and built-in prints support calibration. A command-line interface allows use without the graphical interface; customizable G-code macros and post-processing scripts provide further processing options. Prebuilt 64-bit releases are listed for the three platforms, though the maintainer says Linux and macOS builds were compiled but not tested.
Good
- Handles FFF G-code and mSLA PNG layer output.
- Supports STL, OBJ, AMF and 3MF inputs.
- Includes generated calibration tests and built-in prints.
- Supports multiple extruders and variable layer heights.
- Provides a command-line interface and post-processing scripts.
Watch out
- Linux and macOS builds are compiled but not maintainer-tested.
- The listed 2.7.63.0 beta 2 release is a pre-release.
Who it suits
SuperSlicer suits users preparing prints for FFF or mSLA printers who want calibration and detailed print-tuning controls. Its command-line interface may also suit users who need to work without the graphical interface.
Verdict
SuperSlicer combines broad printer-preparation controls with support for both FFF and mSLA workflows. Check the platform build caveat if you use Linux or macOS.
