KiriMoto
Developed by stewartallen
tl;dr -- just start playing with it at https://grid.space/kiri *** Kiri:Moto is an integrated browser-based slicer and tool-path generator for 3D Printing, CAM / CNC and Laser cutting. *** 3D printing mode provides model slicing and GCode output using built-in and customizable profiles for many types of 3D printers. A high degree of control over slicing parameters coupled with a powerful print preview capability ensures that you get the most out of your 3D printer. *** CAM mode provides 2.5-axis tool path generation for facing, roughing, profiling and finishing (waterline, linear-x and linear-y). Fine-grained controls give you the ability to optimize your tool use and tool paths. A preview capability lets you check tool paths with the ability to step through individual z levels. The application also provides a customizable tool library and customizable GCode post processors. *** Laser mode will intelligently slice a 3D model and layout the cross sections for export to DXF or SVG. *** Kiri-e is the Japanese art of papercutting
Platform: Thing
Requires at least one of these types of files: STL

I’ll have to look deeper into Kiri:Moto, it looks like a very clean workflow, and it’s the first CAM app I’ve seen recommended or used other than F360 or Makera’s own in-development CAM solution. Knowledge taken from https://docs.grid.space/projects/kiri-moto/ https://dinosaurgame3d.com
how to get your own infill
I use repetier slicer for connecting with the easythreed it worked
i have been using an easythreed printer and it worked for one day but then i couldnt slice the stl files anymore
I want to love this program but its giving me a lot of grief. I am printing in SLA yet only 2 printer models appear: Anycubic Photon and Anycubic Photon S. And I cant 'select' either of them to even try to customize them as a compromise. I did get a file to load once... but it also loaded the default model. I deleted both and now no file will load, which, I guess wont matter since the printer selection area is a hiccup. I tried reverting the version to older but that made the program sad.
Is there way to utterly nerf/reboot/start over my settings? Maybe its trapped in some way?
I'll edit to say I have an Anycubic Mono SE, same result in Chrome or Edge. Weird.
shit + Z then a page reload will reset all settings. only Photon and Halot Sky are supported at the moment. you don't need to customize them because their parameters are fixed. everything else is controlled with slice settings on the right.
Cool, thanks for the information.
Switched machines and still get SIGILL error when slicing/exporting. I wonder what's causing the instruction snafu...
what browser / os? SLA requires WebAssembly support
Is it possible to run Kiri:Moto locally or self-host it? I'd like to be able to use it on my own home server instead of something over the internet. Thanks!
certainly. check out the docs page https://docs.grid.space/projects/kiri-moto and then visit the github source
Thank you! I should have done more research before asking. Keep up the good work!
the Wiki link is broken in the description - Kiri:Moto Wiki for Quick start Instructions
should be linking to : https://wiki.grid.space/ or even a page with links to Getting Started videos.
Great! It is killing me to not have finished my vacuum system for the cnc machine yet and get back to throwing chips around using Kiri:Moto. So many nice features you have been adding.
thanks. I've updated the description. I'm working on a complete guide video to the latest (2.5) which will go live at the same time as the new version later this week.
Crashed twice in a row after taking 5+ minutes to slice a small model.
do you mind sharing the model and settings? [email protected]

Default settings I didn't change anything at all. I tried many different things but no matter what part of the model I wanted to slice it failed. It hits the end and gives me a grey box with a face in the middle of it. The model has been printed before by at least one person.
This is using Chrome.
This was just a heads up, I don't plan on slicing with this software as I didn't see a place that showed the total amount of material used. I could have missed this though.
when you export / print, the dialog shows the amount of material used and final printed weight.

Wat format of cad file ar suported and can be lode in kiri:moto?
STL
need to rotate at least 5 degrees increments, not just 90° or 10°, otherwise it is impossible to achieve 45° rotation. Better even would be to allow arbitrary angles or simulate gravity to let it fall flat once it is rotated enough.
select any object (it will turn green). then SHIFT-R and a dialog will allow you to enter arbitrary X, Y, Z rotations
how does it save slicing settings?
settings are saved in your browser's localstorage
darn, I was hoping it was linked to accounts, it would be nice to log on anywhere and slice and print anywhere using this and octoprint. I wonder if they plan on giving developers any storage. I don't know how good the api is but, you could probably use private things to save print settings. Either using the description, a config file in the download section, or maybe even stl files writing and creating a binary(or other bases) converter, representing 1 and 0s with different triangles.
Another thing you could do is an octoprint plugin that uses setting saved on the octoprint server.
I'm planning to add accounts so that settings persist across devices and sites (thingiverse, onshape, grid.space). Storage isn't the problem. It's just a matter of time. This is a one-man effort at the moment.
Kiri:Moto already spools to octoprint and astroprint (from the export/print dialog)
I've spent that last one or two months working on a chat program using sockets in java, I understand how slow the development cycle can be.
I saw the octoprint gcode upload, that's the reason I'm interested. I was saying the octoprint server would be a good location to save the config files.
I'll see what I can do next week with server-sync and persisting settings across devices / sites.
Modifying MY things ?
access to MY information ???
Kiri:Moto does not modify your things and it does not access your information. It uses only publicly accessible data about your Thing models.
we need a pcb creating tool with CNC!
