What is the HueForge Color Swap Planner?

A workflow planner that organizes filament transition layers into a clear checklist for manual or automated multi-color prints.

Formula Used

• Swap Checklist = Array of { Layer_Index, Z_Height_mm, Color_Name, Hex_Code }

Real-World Example

Start with Black (L1–L7, 0.00–0.64mm) -> Swap to Navy Blue at L8 (0.72mm) -> Swap to Crimson Red at L14 (1.20mm) -> Swap to White at L19 (1.60mm).

Accuracy and Limitations

Always purge thoroughly during manual swaps to ensure clean color transitions without bleeding.

Who It Is For

Makers creating multi-tonal lithophanes, portraits, and decorative wall art.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I print HueForge art without a Bambu AMS or multi-material unit?
Yes! Because HueForge swaps colors across entire horizontal Z layers (only 3–5 swaps per print), you can simply add M600 filament change pauses in your slicer and swap spools manually.
