Hi All, We’re excited to announce that the Snapmaker Orca and Snapmaker App V2.3.5 Beta are now available for testing! We welcome you to join the test and share your feedback with us.
New Features
Added Top Cover controls.
Added a filament sync feature. You can sync filament information from the printer to Orca using “Match Mapping” or “Direct Override”.
Added an official filament color library panel with support for dual-color official filaments.
Added a warning when Variable Layer Height and Subdivide Mix Layer are enabled simultaneously.
In Color Mixing mode, if an incompatible filament combination is used, slicing is blocked and an error is displayed.
Added support for Snapmaker PVA and optimized the print profiles for Snapmaker PLA-CF and Snapmaker TPU.
Improvements
Optimized the wipe tower structure by adding an opening in the outer wall.
Optimized the Snapmaker Orca startup animation.
And I also want to share that, to keep improving the software experience, we’re making Beta testing a regular thing for Snapmaker Orca and Snapmaker App. Going forward, we’ll be running tests on an ongoing basis and plan to build a team of at least 100 community testers over time. Participants will receive gift cards as a thank-you for each test they take. If you’re interested in becoming a long-term testing partner, feel free to reach out anytime – we’d love to have you on board!
Hi, you can DM your Snapmaker Orca/App email account first.
The first few Beta rounds will be public, so everyone gets a chance to jump in. Over time, as we build a reliable group of active testers, we’ll likely shift to a private Beta to keep things more focused.
So if you’re interested, now’s a great time to start with V2.3.5!
PLEASE!! Put my name in the hat to become a tester!! The first machine I had was the 3 in 1 A350 (needs new stop switches, 2 linear rails & new handheld controller to get it up & running again, but the other 15 printers and lasers I own make up for it till it’s fixed). I know I don’t have the following the others that have been working on this opportunity do, but I can get it started and hopefully make something big happen! I’ve been waiting for this!! Was actually looking to see if you guys were hiring earlier today.
It is corrupt, I downloaded it this morning and it crashes, I had to fully remove all of my Snapmaker Orca files and lost my saved settings, shame you didn’t fully test it before sending it out!
Also is there a way to implement to the slicer like “smooth timelapse” which moves the toolhead to a predetermined position before takeing a photo to create an illusion that it prints by itself
