Live farm dashboard
Every printer on one grid — status, progress, and the loaded spool at a glance. Stop walking the farm to check on a print.
All-in-one print farm management
Every printer. Every spool. Every order. One dashboard.
Built for small and mid-size print farms: live printer monitoring, finished-goods and consumables inventory, and spool tracking down to the gram — so you never run out of stock, and never bin a half-used spool.
- Bambu Lab printers
- Shopify sync
- Web & desktop app
Visibility
No more walking the farm
Check every printer from your desk instead of the shop floor — status and progress, always live.
Accuracy
No more stockouts
Filament and finished-goods counts keep themselves current as prints finish and orders ship.
Control
Suggestions, not autopilot
The queue suggests what to print next from real stock and sales — but every job starts on your say-so.
Smart suggestions
The software suggests. You decide.
PrintFarmCompanion watches your stock and sales and builds a suggested queue for every printer — what to print, how many, and why. But it never fires a job on its own: you see the reasoning, adjust the queue, and press start.
- Every suggestion shows its reason — out of stock, below minimum, or selling fast.
- Reorder, skip, or pin your own jobs — the queue adapts around your decisions.
- Suggestions match the filament already loaded, so starting a job is one click.
Everything the farm needs, in one place
From the printers on the floor to the orders going out the door — every part of the operation, connected.
Filament & spool tracking
Every open spool tracked by material, color, and grams remaining — so partial spools get planned into the next job instead of binned. Less waste, lower cost per part.
Inventory & stock counts
Precise counts of finished products and consumables, backed by an append-only log. Low-stock thresholds flag what to reorder before you ever run dry.
Smart print suggestions
Suggests what to print next from real sales and stock levels — with the reason attached. You review, reorder, and hit start. It advises; you decide.
Queue & start prints
Queue jobs and start them across the whole farm — manual, Pi bridge, or direct — from one place, with live start states.
Statistics & analytics
Total runtime, filament usage by color and material, failure analysis, and wasted-cost tracking — the numbers behind the farm.
Modules & products
Define reusable print modules and assemble them into sellable products, so the same part feeds every order it belongs to.
Desktop & web app
Run it in any browser, or as a native desktop app on the shop floor for direct printer control. Your farm, wherever you are.
Shopify integration
Your store and your farm, in sync
Connect Shopify once and every sale flows straight into the farm. Inventory deducts itself, forecasting reacts, and you print to meet real demand — no spreadsheets, no overselling.
- Orders sync automatically — no manual entry, no CSV exports.
- Inventory deducts the moment an item sells, so stock stays accurate.
- Forecasting sees real sales and tells you what to print next.
- Map each SKU to a product once — it stays linked from then on.
Connect the farm your way
Three ways to bring printers online — mix and match across the farm, no two machines need the same setup.
Manual mode
Track any printer by hand with time-based progress. Perfect for older machines or a quick start.
Pi bridge
A small Raspberry Pi service relays files and live status to each printer over your local network.
Direct connection
The desktop app talks straight to your Bambu printers over MQTT — no middleman required.
How it works
Three steps from bare printers to a fully managed farm.
01
Connect your printers
Set up a Pi bridge or connect directly over your local network. Bambu printers come online in minutes.
02
Configure your farm
Add filament materials, build print modules and products, and link integrations like Shopify.
03
Monitor & manage
Watch every print, track inventory and costs, and review what the queue suggests next — you stay in control of every start.
