Export to a 3D Printer Slicer in Shapr3D

Shapr3D integrates directly with a range of industry-standard slicers, letting you send your design from the Export menu to your slicer of choice without any manual file handling. No need to export a file, locate it, and import it separately — the integration handles the transfer automatically and opens your model in the slicer, ready to prepare for printing.

Video walkthrough

General workflow

Exporting to a slicer follows the same general steps across all supported integrations.

  1. Open the Export menu and choose the 3D Print category to display the available slicer integrations.
  2. Select your slicer.
  3. Your model is transferred and opened automatically in the slicer.
  4. Set up your print settings, supports, and slicing parameters directly in the slicer.

Before you export

Review the following before sending your model to a slicer.

  • Your model is complete and ready to print. Any changes made after exporting will require a new export.
  • All bodies are in the correct position and orientation. What you see in Shapr3D is what gets sent to the slicer, including scale and placement.

Supported slicers

Shapr3D currently supports direct integration with a selection of widely used slicers. Each integration follows the same general export flow, but the options and settings available will vary depending on the slicer. For step-by-step instructions, visit the article for your slicer:
