Who writes this
Encrust is one person’s project. I write the slicer, print with it, and write the guides and posts on this site. Below is what I have tested myself and what I have not, so you can tell which pages rest on a print and which rest on the code.
What I build
Encrust is a slicer for MSLA and SLA resin printers: import, repair, orient, hollow, support, slice, check the layers, send to the printer. It is written in Rust, runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, and is free under AGPL-3.0. It is alpha, and the code is open, so what this site says the app does can be read in the code that does it.
What I have actually printed
One printer is proven: an ELEGOO Saturn 4 Ultra has printed files Encrust wrote. The other 99 profiles come from the makers’ published specifications and are very likely close, but no print confirms them.
Exposure and lift in the bundled profiles are a starting point, not a calibrated setting. Your printer’s and your resin maker’s instructions come first. Where an exposure or lift figure here is one I measured, the printer, the resin and the layer height are written beside it; the rest of the numbers on this site come from the app’s code or from a format’s own description, and each article says which. Start with a calibration piece rather than the model you care about.
How the guides and posts are written
Guides come from the app’s own source and documentation, not from other people’s articles. A guide names the version its steps were walked through in, and goes stale when the app moves on. A post that turns out wrong gets a dated correction rather than a quiet rewrite.
AI writes and checks the drafts. I read every article before it is published and answer for what it says; the Impressum names me for that. Nothing goes up that I have not read.
Reach me
A bug or a question about the app belongs in the repository, where the answer helps the next person too. Anything else: hello@encrust.app.
