SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires requests, and includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Turning an AI-generated 3D model into a physical print requires slicer detection, format conversion, coordinate fixes, printability checks, and multicolor segmentation — this Skill automates that entire pipeline via the Meshy API. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Slicer Detection & Integration: Automatically detects installed slicers (OrcaSlicer, Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer, Cura, Creality Print, Elegoo, Anycubic) and opens models directly in them. - White & Multicolor Pipelines: Generates untextured OBJ models with coordinate/scale fixes for single-color prints, or runs the Multi-Color Print API to produce 3MF files for multicolor slicers. - Printability Analysis & Repair: Runs free mesh analysis (watertightness, non-manifold edges, holes) and conditional repair before printing. - Creative Lab Products: Turns a photo into printable consumer products — figures, lamps, keychains, and fridge magnets — via a two-stage prototype/build pipeline. - Use Case: A user uploads a photo and asks for a multicolor keychain; the Skill prototypes it, builds the 3D model, segments colors into a 3MF, and opens it in Bambu Studio ready to slice. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to 3D print a model, for example: "Generate a dragon figurine with Meshy and prepare it for multicolor printing in Bambu Studio."

Frequently Asked Questions about meshy-3d-printing

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I 3D print a model generated with Meshy AI?▼

Generate the model via the Meshy text-to-3d or image-to-3d API, download it as OBJ for single-color prints or run the Multi-Color Print API for a 3MF, then open the file in a detected slicer like OrcaSlicer or Bambu Studio.

Which slicers support multicolor 3MF printing?▼

Multicolor-capable slicers supported are OrcaSlicer, Bambu Studio, Creality Print, Elegoo Slicer, and Anycubic Slicer Next. PrusaSlicer and UltiMaker Cura are detected but only suitable for single-color printing workflows.

How many credits does multicolor 3D printing cost with Meshy?▼

A full multicolor pipeline costs 40 credits: 20 for generation, 10 for texturing (refine), and 10 for multi-color processing. Printability analysis is free, and mesh repair adds 10 credits only if errors are flagged.

Can I turn a photo into a printable keychain or figurine?▼

Yes, the Creative Lab API converts a photo into printable products — figure, lamp, keychain, or fridge-magnet — through a prototype stage (6 credits) and a build stage (30 credits) that outputs a textured GLB or OBJ.

Why does my printed OBJ model import with wrong orientation or scale?▼

Meshy OBJ exports use glTF Y-up coordinates while slicers expect Z-up. The included fix_obj_for_printing function rotates axes, scales to a target height in millimeters, centers the model, and aligns its base to Z=0.

Does mesh repair preserve textures for multicolor printing?▼

No, the repair API preserves geometry only and strips textures. For multicolor prints needing repair, run repair first, then re-texture the model, then submit it to the Multi-Color Print API.
