![]() ![]() You can connect your printer to this software, import your 3D files and print them directly. You are lucky if you have one of their printers, but they also provide free software to control almost any 3D printer: Ultimaker Cura. Cura is the software they created to control their printers. Ultimaker is a manufacturer that creates and sells high-end 3D printers for companies and individuals. Can a Raspberry Pi run Cura? What is Cura? I don’t really need one, but it’s becoming more and more appealing as a hobby :-). Even for models with a solid reputation ( like this one on Amazon), you can find them at a price closer to that of a traditional printer. I will also give you alternatives you can use for 3D printing on Raspberry Pi.īy the way, 3D printers are no longer that expensive. So, the answer to your question is yes, it’s possible. There is no official release for the Raspberry Pi, but a fork has been created for ARM. Ultimaker Cura can be installed on Raspberry Pi by downloading the AppImage file in the releases section from the GitHub project. I don’t have a 3D printer (yet), but I was interested to see which applications can run on a Raspberry Pi. ![]() Using a Raspberry Pi to control a 3D printer is pretty common as it brings many benefits (low power-consumption, connectivity, remote access, etc.). 3D printers and Raspberry Pi are good friends.
