🛠️ Let VARVX configure it for me – choose the best orientation and strength Answer 4 quick Yes/No questions below, pick the usage class & material, and describe the part.

💪 Must the part withstand force / load?

✨ Must the exterior be ultra-detailed? ?We print with a very fine layer height (0.12 mm instead of standard 0.20 mm). This brings out fine details and smoother shallow curves, but significantly increases print time (and price) and can slightly reduce mechanical strength. 💡 Tip: On standard straight and functional parts the difference is barely visible to the naked eye – standard layers are usually best (choose No).

🪄 Must supported surfaces look as clean as the rest of the part? ?When part of the model overhangs in the air (angle > 45°, red areas in 3D view), temporary supports must be printed underneath. Choosing "No" (standard supports): a tiny air gap (~0.2–0.3 mm depending on nozzle) is left so supports can break away, leaving the supported surface slightly rougher with ~0.2–0.3 mm dimensional variance. Choosing "Yes" (dedicated support interface): we print the contact layer with a 2-nozzle printer using a separate release material at 0 mm gap, keeping the supported surface smooth, strong and accurate (slower & higher cost). 💡 Tip: If the supported side is hidden and ~0.3 mm variance does not matter, choose No – it is much more affordable.

☀️ Will it be used outdoors, in a car or warm area?

🧪 Choose usage class and filament: Click a usage class and select a filament below – see heat resistance and best use cases, and the price updates instantly.

Describe what the part does and how it is loaded:

Where and in what direction do forces, bending or tension act? (e.g. "bolt pulls from this hole", "clip bends outward" – we orient the layers for maximum strength)
Where is the part used and which surface must look the cleanest?

✓ We will orient the part on the build plate and configure print settings based on your answers.

3 Supports

Automatic (recommended)The 3D view highlights all surfaces that may require support. Exact supports are reviewed and configured for the best result before printing. No supportsIf the model prints fine without supports.

✨ Smooth & stronger support surface – dedicated interface material (Support Interface, Z=0 mm)The support contact layer is printed on a dual-nozzle printer using a separate release material (e.g. PETG ↔ PLA) with zero air gap (Z=0 mm). This leaves the supported surface smooth and dimensionally accurate, and adds significant strength on thin or curved parts because the bottom layers are pressed firmly together rather than printed loosely in the air. 💡 For thicker parts where the underside appearance does not matter, you can leave this unchecked – standard single-material supports are much more affordable.

3D Printing Wavefront OBJ Models & 3D Scans

Seamless online quoting for Blender, ZBrush, Maya, and 3D scan meshes

🎨 Automatic Quad & N-Gon Triangulation

Unlike basic viewers that only accept triangles, our OBJ engine triangulates quad and polygon faces on the fly and supports negative relative vertex indices.

📐 Interactive Millimetre Rescaling

Models exported from Blender or ZBrush often arrive in metres or arbitrary scene units. Click any X/Y/Z dimension in the 3D viewport to scale your OBJ to the exact millimetre size.

✨ Fine 0.12 mm Layers & Zero-Gap Supports

For organic sculptures, props, and detailed housings, select our 0.12 mm detail preset and dual-material Support Interface (Z=0 mm) for clean undersides.

Frequently asked questions

Does my OBJ file need to be manifold (watertight) for 3D printing?

Yes. A 3D-printable OBJ mesh must be a closed solid volume with wall thickness of at least 1.0–1.2 mm rather than zero-thickness single-sided planes.

Why did my Blender OBJ import at 1/1000th scale?

Blender defaults to metres (1 unit = 1 m), while 3D printers read 1 unit as 1 mm. Either set Scale to 1000 when exporting from Blender, or type your desired mm size directly in our 3D viewer.

Are .MTL colour textures printed from an OBJ file?

FDM parts are printed in your chosen engineering or aesthetic filament colour. You can also emboss or deboss an SVG vector logo onto any surface in the calculator.

Which material gives the best surface finish for OBJ models?

PLA and matte carbon-reinforced PLA-CF produce crisp details and hide layer lines remarkably well.

What is the maximum OBJ file size supported?

Up to 120 MB directly in the browser calculator.
