What LunarWerx 3D Print is built for

LunarWerx 3D Print is made by the team that publishes this site. It is a set of browser tools for ironing settings, injection moulding checks and foam inserts. [1]

The ironing helper works out settings for your printer, material and finish and exports a ready 3MF file. [1] It makes a 9-pad or 16-pad test plate, and you mark each pad as worked or not. [1] You can click flat top surfaces, and the export adds a modifier part over each picked surface. [1]

The mould helper runs 13 checks, shows shrinkage, pressure and weak-point maps, and builds the two mould halves; all numbers are estimates. [1] The foam tool lays parts out in a box, designs a foam tray and top pad that each part lifts out of, and splits the insert into pieces that each fit your printer's bed. [1] [1] It also turns backwards faces in an STL file right side out and says how many it fixed. [1]

Pricing and fees

The Simplify3D facts given here do not state a price, so its price is not published in these sources. No facts for SuperSlicer were gathered, so its price is not published here either; check its own page for it. LunarWerx 3D Print says its tools are free to use.

Setting it up and printing

The Simplify3D facts gathered here say nothing about installation or which computers it runs on, so check its own page for those details. No setup facts for SuperSlicer were gathered, so check its own page as well.

LunarWerx 3D Print runs in a web browser. [1] You use it on its website, which is hosted on Cloudflare. [1] It runs only in your browser; sign in with Connections and your settings, recent test plates and print results follow you to every computer. [1]

For printing, an uploaded Bambu or Orca project gets per-object ironing settings, and the rest of the file stays unchanged. [1] One checkbox slows just the first layer to 15 mm/s by default, and the claims say the part then sticks to a clean plate without glue. [1]

Things to check before you choose

Ask which job you need done: slicing and printer control, or settings and design helpers. Check what each rival's own page says it does, because the facts here cover only Simplify3D and say nothing about SuperSlicer.

Ask what the price is for each rival, since none is published in these sources. Ask whether a browser tool suits your workflow, since LunarWerx 3D Print runs in a web browser. [1]

If you want to see the code of the tool you use, check each one's licence. The LunarWerx 3D Print code package is marked private, not public. [1] Mould numbers are estimates, so decide how much weight to give them. [1]
