Note for experienced users: If you already understand the difference between importing geometry vs. opening a Bambu Lab project file directly (and the potential G-code issues), this tool is primarily a convenience for you. The main benefit is that it loads the model with the original color mapping intact, rather than defaulting to whatever filaments you currently have active in Snapmaker Orca.
What it does:
Converts Bambu Lab/Bambu Studio .3mf files to Snapmaker U1 compatible format
Applies the 0.20mm Standard print profile
Remaps colors and filament types to U1 compatible profiles
Automatically enables Tree Supports (auto) if the original model has supports enabled
Supports up to 4 filaments/colors
How to use:
Upload your Bambu Lab .3mf file
Adjust filament colors and types if needed
Click “Convert and Download”
Open the converted file in Snapmaker Orca for final slicing
Sorry, but what are the advantages of this conversion besides automatic color assignment?
I import models from MakerWorld via Ctrl+I (File → Import → Import 3MF/STL) and don’t get any errors. The only thing I have to do is manually assign colors to the extruders.
Also, it would be great to know what’s ‘under the hood’ to be sure that it works correctly and is safe for the U1.
Wouldn’t it also be possible to convert the other settings? For example, layer height - fill density, etc.
This makes a lot of sense for lithophane prints, for instance. You wouldn’t need to load the *.3mf file in Bambu Studio first just to transfer the settings to the U1.
