Run the 3D printing work your shop takes on.

From a one-off prototype to a short run of printed parts, each job carries its own routing, costs and drawing. The routings below are typical; yours are set up the way your shop runs.

Custom one-offs and short runs

Parts printed to the customer's drawing, and printed again next month. Find the last job by its UPR and re-quote it at today's prices.

Jigs, fixtures and printed tooling

A printed jig as part of a machining or assembly job. A Make line raises its own print works order, numbered under the job it's for.

Aerospace, automotive and motorsport parts

Metal parts printed on a build plate. Stress relief and cutting off the plate can go out on a purchase order linked to the works order it's for.

Large models quoted as a project on a budget figure, with the detail added as the design firms up, then delivered and invoiced in stages.

Where print jobs slip, and what Statii does about it.

Four places a print job usually goes wrong, each answered by the part of Statii that handles it. Shown with 3D printing data.

Quote every print job, from the build to the last finishing step.

The build, depowdering, blasting, fitting inserts and inspection each go on the costing against the printer or bench that does them, with a setup time and a time per part at its hourly rate. Powder goes on from stock; inserts and vapour smoothing go on as bought-in costs. Attach the customer's drawing; it stays with the job.

  • Cost a whole build once, as a setup time on the printer, if that's how you price it
  • Type in the print time and material weight from your slicer
  • Repeat parts: find the last job by its UPR and update the prices

See what each job made before the next order is quoted.

Time booked against each operation posts back to the job as it's worked. On the works order, actual time and cost turn red once they pass the plan; on the sales order, Estimated, Planned and Actual margin sit side by side, so a price that was too low shows before the repeat order comes in.

  • A part reprinted after a failed build adds its cost to the order through an NCR
  • Profit, margin and profit per hour on every row

Buy powder by the kilo, and send finishing out against the job.

Buy filament by the spool, resin by the bottle and powder by the kilo, then cost it by the part: the item's buy line converts what you buy into the unit you cost in. Finishing sent out is a bought-in cost on the quote; when the customer's order is acknowledged it becomes a purchase order, prefilled and linked to the works order and sales order, ready to check and send.

  • Material a job is short of shows pink on the works order until something is raised to cover it
  • Send parts straight to the finisher, or on to the next supplier in line
  • Attach the material certificate to the batch it came with

Plan every printer, day and night, to the delivery date.

Each printer, depowdering station, blast cabinet and bench is a resource with its own working hours, so a printer can run through the night and over the weekend while the benches keep shop hours. Autoplan works back from the date the customer needs the job and fits each operation round what's already booked. An operation expected after the required date shows red.

  • Each job's build takes its own slot on the printer; drag it earlier or later and the expected date updates as you move it
  • Parts for several jobs on one build: book it once on the shop floor with split booking, and the time is shared between them
  • Compact Left pulls a printer's work into earlier free time

Manufacture more than printing jobs?

If your shop also machines, fabricates or moulds plastics, see how Statii handles that work.

Three reasons additive manufacturers choose Statii

Created by manufacturers

Not by people who worked with manufacturers — by two who ran an engineering firm and needed this to exist.

Ring us and a person answers

No ticket queue, no per-call charge, no offshore script. The people who answer know the product because they built it.

Easy to start and use

MRP needs to be simple enough everyone adopts it. Statii is so easy, that the office and the floor are both using it in the first week.

What additive manufacturers ask us.

Anything else, ask the team who built it: 0115 647 2002

Is Statii additive manufacturing software?

Yes, for make-to-order 3D printing: prototypes, one-offs, short runs, jigs and fixtures printed to the customer's drawing, in plastic, resin or metal. It's an MRP system that takes the job from quote to sales order, works order, purchase orders for material and finishing, the schedule for each printer and bench, shop floor bookings, delivery and invoice. It doesn't slice files or run your printers. Invoices sync with Xero, Sage or QuickBooks.

Can Statii quote a 3D print job?

Yes. Cost the build and each finishing step against the printer or bench that does it, with your material from stock and anything sent out as a bought-in cost. You enter the print time and material weight from your slicer: Statii doesn't read STL or 3MF files or price a part from its volume. Repeat parts are found by their UPR and re-quoted at today's prices.

Can I schedule printers that run overnight?

Yes. Each printer is a resource with its own working hours, so it can be available day and night, weekends included, while the benches keep shop hours. Autoplan works back from the date the customer needs the job and fits each build round what's already booked on that printer.

What happens when several jobs share one build?

Each job's print operation takes its own slot on the printer's schedule. When parts for several jobs go into one build, the operator books it once on the shop floor tablet with split booking, and the time is shared between the jobs. Statii doesn't pack or nest the build for you.

Can I buy powder or resin in bulk and cost it by the part?

Yes. Buy filament by the spool, resin by the bottle and powder by the kilo: the item's buy line converts what you buy into the unit you cost in. How much material a part uses is your own figure, from your slicer. Attach the certificate to the batch, and any batch traces to the job and customer it went to. Statii doesn't track powder reuse or refresh ratios.

What doesn't Statii do for 3D printing?

It doesn't import STL, 3MF or CAD files, price a part from its volume or weight, or read print time from your slicer. There's no instant online quoting or customer upload portal. It doesn't connect to or monitor printers, pack or nest builds, keep build reports or record which build file made a part, or track powder and resin lots, reuse or refresh ratios. Failed prints are recorded as rejected parts or on an NCR, but scrap material isn't costed. Shelf life is only tracked if you set up custom fields, and traceability goes to the batch, not to serial numbers.
