What makes it different

3dSynth bypasses traditional mesh-based workflows entirely. Your printer receives instructions generated directly from parameters you control.

SynthBlocks

Build toolpath logic visually—loops, math, conditionals, and custom behaviors. Designed for creative technologists.

Profile Shape

Parametric spline profiles + modulators to sculpt form. Fast iteration without mesh artifacts.

Simulation

Preview the exact toolpath before you print. Inspect layers, travels, and retractions in the viewport.

300+ Printer Profiles

Built-in configuration for major brands. Select your machine and export with safe start/end G-code.

31+ Effect Modules

Stack Ripple, Twist, Noise, Blobs, Contour Waves, and Fractals. Mix and match to discover new surfaces.

Vase & Contour Modes

Switch between Spiral Vase mode (continuous Z) and layered workflows. Discover woven textures.

Professional UI

Fast, clean workflow with efficient panels and clear visual feedback—built for iteration.

Two ways to create

Choose your workflow. Design with parametric curves or program custom logic visually.

Profile Shape Parametric

The classic vase-mode workflow. Draw a spline profile and stack powerful modulators to sculpt the form.

  • Bezier spline profile editor
  • 30+ stackable modulators (Ripple, Twist, Noise)
  • Julia Set fractals & Contour Waves

SynthBlocks Visual Logic

Program your toolpath directly. Drag and drop blocks to build custom loops, patterns, and logic.

  • Visual block programming (Scratch-like)
  • Full control: Variables, Loops, Math, Logic
  • Design impossible geometries directly

Learn & resources

Get productive fast. Then go deep: blocks, effects, transforms, and real printing workflows.

Questions & answers

Everything you need to know before you start printing.

What is SynthBlocks?
SynthBlocks is a new visual programming environment inside 3dSynth. It lets you create custom toolpaths by dragging and connecting blocks—like Scratch for your 3D printer. You can build loops, logic, and math-driven patterns that are impossible with standard slicers.
Do I need coding experience?
Not at all. The standard "Profile Mode" uses sliders and curves—no code required. If you want to use SynthBlocks, it's designed to be visual and intuitive, but it's completely optional.
What printers are supported?
3dSynth includes over 300 built-in profiles for major brands like Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality, Voron, and Anycubic. It generates standard G-code compatible with almost any FDM/FFF printer.
How is this different from a slicer?
Slicers take a 3D model (STL) and slice it. 3dSynth generates the toolpath directly from math or logic. This gives you control over every single movement, allowing for single-wall prints with perfect surface quality and zero mesh artifacts.
Is the G-code safe?
Yes. The generated G-code includes verified start/end sequences for your specific machine (heating, homing, purging). The built-in 3D preview lets you inspect every travel move before you export.
Can I use prints commercially?
Yes. The Professional license includes full commercial rights. You own everything you generate.
