I'm looking too for dual nozzle for my Klipper modified Raise3D N2 plus. I'm still under prusaslicer for dual nozzle and orca for single noozzle. |

More / better support for multiple extruders would be great! Would love to use my IDEX more often. |

This would be great!!! I would rly like to switch to Orca Slicer for my E3D Toolchanger. But this is simply not possible at the moment =( |

What slicer are you using currently for your E3d Tool changer? I have a ProForge 4 and it's based on the E3d. |

Currently using PrusaSlicer which is working reasonably well... I can send you the profile if you want. |

I want to 100% switch from Prusa Slicer to Orca Slicer for my Sovol SV04. However, Orca Slicer does not support multi extruder printers apparently. So now I'm stuck using 2 different slicers. Prusa Slicer for dual material and Ocra for single extruder prints. Quite bummed :( |

I don't understand how they have profiles for the RatRig V-Cast and the Snapmaker J1. Both are IDEX machines. Are they really limited to using just one extruder in Orca Slicer? More info would be great. |

J1 owner here: actually yes, I'm using Prusa Slicer for IDEX prints and Orca for the rest. I was not able to figure out how to use Orca for IDEX reasonably well. (eg. it doesn't pre-heat other head, can't use wipe tower efficiently etc.) |

I also have a printer with 4 extruders and I would like to use Orca.... |

Im working on a toolchanger for my Voron 2.4, having multiple toolhead support would be a GODSEND as i realy prefer orca.. |

In theory you can use more extruders (I currently use them with Orca) but with Prusa Slicer it is easier to configure them... in the sense that you can set the diameter of the nozzle and everything else much faster |

How can you do that? |

I just built a 6-in-1 printer and I would love to be able to use Orca. I hate having to use SuperSlicer just for multi-color prints - I find the UI much more difficult to use. |

Add another vote for this. Having a toolchanger and like the interface of Orca so much better, I would love to see it added! |

Another one with 6 tool changer here also. Would really prefer to stick with Orca Slicer as it does such a great job. |

Just adding my voice to the mix. Multi-tool support is baked into PrusaSlicer and Cura. Would love to just use Orca, instead. |

+1 here too, defiantly a feature that will become more mainstream |

If everyone here could also go add a thumbs up to the issue and add a comment there as well, it would be helpful! This is the link: #5079 |

@SoftFever What can we do to help with this? Do you have an IDEX printer? Maybe we can see about raising some funds for one? (I already sponsor, but that is just in general). Maybe someone from Prusa could donate (at least temporarily) a multi tool head XL? Maybe the folks behind one of the other IDEX printers could donate (at least temporarily) one of their IDEX printers? Something else? While I am a "programmer" this whole area and code base are not in my wheel house, so I don't feel comfortable attempting to help more actively. |

But I am willing to test since I do have a 5 TH Prusa XL. |

I would put a little money on this as well if that would help I am sure there's a few of us that could put up a few bucks. We could easily cover a idex.

First of all I wanted to thank you for making such an amazing slicer. For single material printing I couldn't have a better slicer to cover all my printers than orca. Even multicolor works great with it in some regards. Sadly multi material prints are next to impossible with only having one configurable process ore one single tool head. Personally I have a batch of fully customized idex printers running Klipper that have in itself two completly different tool heads and nozzle sizes. Having the option to not just customly change the tool heads via custom gcode, but rather change the whole slicing process per tool head would be a great way too fully use the potential of not just those but rather every multi tool/extruder headed printers out there. Since multi tool headed printers are getting more and more popular it would be a great implementation |

Is this being worked on for IDEX machines? Have a RR V4 and honestly hate Prusa Slicer, I use Orca for all my other printers. Would prefer to stick to Orca for all printers. |

There's a beta version on the github that supports multitool machines.

It would be fantastic to have multiple extruders added to OrcaSlicer. My printer has four extruders, two with 0.4 mm nozzles, another with a 0.6mm, and another with a 0.8mm. Typically different materials are loaded in each tool. Both Slic3r and Superslicer can add multiple extruders and profiles. Can this functionality be added to OrcaSlicer? It would be nice to perform all my slicing needs with one slicer.
Regards,
