SmartWiper – new script for stable wipe towers (MMU / PrusaSlicer)

Hi everyone,

I’ve developed an open-source script that helps to solve the common issues with wipe towers in multi-material printing:

● no more “elephant’s foot” at the tower base

● fewer blobs, strings, and clumps

● reduced risk of nozzle collisions and crashes

● less delamination of layers when printing with different materials

● stronger towers thanks to improved geometry (also supports spiral towers with inner hole)

● configurable parameters via a simple GUI

👉 The script works as a post-processing tool for PrusaSlicer / OrcaSlicer:

it modifies the generated G-code and automatically generates the wipe towers.

GitHub (download & documentation):

On GitHub you will also find the link to the explanatory video.

If you like to try it out, feedback is very welcome – especially from other MMU users struggling with unstable towers.

Best regards,

Nicola
