Birlo 3D Print Lite for WooCommerce

Description

Birlo 3D Print Lite for WooCommerce adds an FDM 3D-printing configurator and manufacturing workflow to WooCommerce.

Customers can upload STL, OBJ and 3MF files, preview the model in 3D, choose FDM material and print settings, receive an automatic estimate and add the configured part to the WooCommerce cart.

Main features:

  • STL, OBJ and 3MF uploads.
  • Local 3D model preview.
  • FDM materials, colours, infill, quality and quantity configuration.
  • Built-in geometric estimator for quotations.
  • Optional local CuraEngine or OrcaSlicer integration when available on the server.
  • WooCommerce cart, checkout and order integration.
  • Production jobs and basic manufacturing workflow.
  • Private handling of uploaded model files.
  • Three.js r128 bundled locally with the plugin.

Birlo 3D Print Lite does not require a Birlo licence and does not use the Birlo commercial update service or Birlo Slicer Cloud.

Real G-code generation requires CuraEngine or OrcaSlicer to be installed and available on the server with a valid slicing profile. When a local slicer is unavailable, the built-in estimator can still calculate quotations.
