About:
UVtools is a powerful, cross-platform tool for analyzing, calibrating, repairing, converting, and manipulating MSLA/DLP 3D printing files. It provides an extensive suite of features to inspect and modify layers within supported file formats like .cbt, .photon, and .goo. The tool's main value is in preventing print failures and optimizing resin prints through detailed analysis and automated corrections.
Key Features:
  • Layer-by-layer analysis and editing
  • Print failure detection and prevention tools
  • Supports a wide range of resin printer file formats
  • Built-in calibration tests (e.g., exposure, UV)
  • Image manipulation and conversion capabilities
Use Cases:
  • Inspecting and repairing sliced files to prevent print failures
  • Converting 3D models between different printer formats
  • Running calibration tests to find optimal exposure times
Alternatives:
  • Chitubox – Chitubox is primarily a slicer, whereas UVtools excels at post-slicing file analysis and repair.
  • PrusaSlicer – PrusaSlicer is a general-purpose slicer with resin support, but UVtools offers more granular file manipulation.
