Manage your whole filament inventory from a single place.
Filament is one of the most important resources in any 3D printing workshop. Keeping accurate stock control not only prevents running out of material mid-print, it also lets you quote more accurately, plan production better and cut unnecessary purchases.
With the MakerUp Filaments module you can manage your whole materials inventory easily, keeping the real stock of your workshop always up to date. Whether you have a few spools or hundreds of references from different manufacturers, MakerUp helps you keep everything organized and under control.
Track stock in real time
Each filament spool has its own card with all the important information:
- Remaining amount.
- Initial amount.
- Material.
- Color.
- Manufacturer.
- Finish.
- Diameter.
- Purchase price.
- Purchase date.
- Filament status.
- Location within the workshop.
So you always know exactly which materials you have available before accepting a new order.
The inventory updates itself
Forget adjusting stock by hand after every print. MakerUp automatically updates the remaining amount of each spool when you log a print or finish a project.
Every inventory movement is also recorded:
- Purchase of new spools.
- Consumption during a print.
- Manual adjustments.
- Material losses.
- Spools used up.
- Location changes.
That guarantees the inventory always reflects the real situation of the workshop.
Quote knowing you have the material
One of the most common mistakes is accepting an order without checking whether the material is available.
With MakerUp, before generating a quote or accepting a new project, you can immediately check whether you have the filament you need. That avoids delays, urgent purchases and problems with delivery dates.
Check the full history of each spool
Each filament keeps a complete record of its use. You can see:
- Which projects it was used in.
- How much material was consumed.
- Date of each print.
- Associated client.
- Printer used.
- Remaining amount after each use.
Thanks to this history you get full traceability of each spool.
Organize your inventory the way your workshop works
Each filament can be classified by different attributes to make organization easier. For example:
- Material.
- Manufacturer.
- Color.
You can also use filters and search to find any material in seconds.
The most complete filament catalog on the market
MakerUp includes a catalog with dozens of manufacturers and hundreds of filament references.
Our goal is to offer the most complete database in the industry so you can look up any material without leaving the platform. Each reference includes information such as:
- Brand.
- Material.
- Color.
- Finish.
- Diameter.
- Weight.
- Real color sample.
- Official purchase link.
All available from a single platform.
Compare colors across manufacturers
Finding the perfect color is not always easy. Two manufacturers can use similar names for completely different colors.
That is why MakerUp includes real filament samples to make it easy to visually compare the same colors across brands.
So you can pick the filament that best suits each project.
Buy filament straight from the catalog
Each catalog card includes a direct link to the official page of the manufacturer or an authorized distributor.
That way you can buy the material without searching for references in different shops.
MakerUp aims to become the starting point for managing both your inventory and your restocking.
Ready to automate filament purchasing
The MakerUp catalog is only the first step.
In future versions of the platform we will work with manufacturers and distributors to fully automate the restocking process.
Our goal is to let you set up smart rules such as:
- Automatically generate a purchase proposal.
- Add products to the cart automatically.
- Sync orders with partner suppliers.
- Automate restocking of your most-used materials.
That way your workshop will always have the material it needs to keep producing.
We invite manufacturers and distributors to join MakerUp
We want to build the largest ecosystem for 3D printing.
If you are a filament manufacturer or distributor, MakerUp offers an opportunity to give your products visibility within a community of makers, professionals and companies that use 3D printing every day.
In future phases of the project we will work together to offer new integrations, automate purchasing processes and make it easier to connect manufacturers with end users.
Everything connected with the rest of MakerUp
The Filaments module is integrated with the whole platform. Each spool can automatically be linked to:
- The projects where it has been used.
- The Calculator, to work out the real material cost.
- Compatible printers.
- The Dashboard, to show the value of your inventory.
- The production calendar.
- Quotes.
- Purchase history.
All the information stays in sync without entering data more than once.
Designed for any type of workshop
It does not matter whether you use five spools or manage a warehouse with hundreds of references.
MakerUp suits individual makers as well as professional workshops, print farms and companies that need precise inventory control.
Its scalable design keeps stock organized as your activity grows.
Why manage your filaments with MakerUp?
Because good inventory control means saving time, cutting costs and avoiding mistakes.
MakerUp lets you know at all times which materials you have, where they are, how much is left on each spool and which projects they were used in. And thanks to the most complete filament catalog on the market and upcoming integrations with manufacturers, the platform will evolve into a system able to automate materials management and restocking.
More than an inventory, MakerUp turns filament management into a smart tool to optimize production, improve planning and grow your 3D printing workshop.
