A physics-based multi-material FDM color system. Converts images to full-color 3D prints via calibrated light-transmission mixing. Supports 2-8 color systems with slicer-ready 3MF export (BambuStudio/OrcaSlicer).

Latest version of the SMuFF firmware to be compiled in PlatformIO

Flexible OrcaSlicer for the Snapmaker U1 - Color Patch prints painted surfaces as a shell over a different-material core (soft grip on a rigid body, see-through layers), plus mixed nozzle sizes with per-nozzle line width & speed.

OctoPrint Plugin for SMuFF

Extended Klipper toolchanger with enhanced safety features and complete 6-tool ATOM TC configuration for VORON printers

Experimental Python tool for smarter wipe tower generation in multi-material 3D prints.

Firmware code for Smart Filament Buffer

Code for single-variable-based multi-material topology optimization

Simpler version of the SMuFF-Ifc

Multi-Material Computational Fluid Dynamics

This project is a hardware and software solution designed to enable multi-material resin 3D printing on an Anycubic Photon Mono X 6k printer. It was developed as a collaborative project between Scion and the Massey AgriFood Digital Lab.

SMuFF WebInterface

Turn SVG/PNG logos into layered, gap-free multicolor STL plates — for MMU/toolchanger or single-extruder (filament-swap) 3D printing. CLI + web GUI.

Adaptive mesh refinement and performance portability for CFD applications

Open Source toolpath generator for 3DMMLPBF process based on Slic3r

SMuFF GCode Post Processor for Multi Material printing

In process- Simulation setup for FSI case of a multi-material solid using solids4Foam in OpenFOAM v2412 with SAS turbulence model

The intelligence layer for open 3D printing — a local-first pre-print checker for the Snapmaker U1. Reads a 3MF/STL, compares it against your actual printer over Moonraker, fixes only what it can justify, and proves what survived. Orca still slices.

Procedural low-poly hexagonal biome tiles, generated in the browser and exported for 3D printing in 1 to 4 colours.

Headless OrcaSlicer automation — batch slicing plus a Snapmaker U1 multicolor pipeline that turns a JSON job spec into a queued print, using each spool's own RFID temperatures.
