What slicer to use for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan
Use OrcaSlicer, ElegooSlicer, CrealityPrint, or Cura: each has a ready-made profile for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan.
Ready-made profile for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan
We only list slicers you can use in the SimplyPrint cloud, so there may be others for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan.
Cloud-Based Slicer for Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan: Use OrcaSlicer Online
Use OrcaSlicer and other slicers - directly in your browser with SimplyPrint's online cloud slicer. No installation required. Slice your Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan models from any device, anywhere in the world!
Automatic Profile Updates: Profiles are automatically checked and fetched from the slicer GitHub repositories every day, as well as from our own open-source community-driven slicer profile database. This ensures you always have access to the latest profiles.
Note: Other slicers, such as Simplify3D, ideaMaker, SuperSlicer and KISSlicer, aren't in our cloud, so we don't track their profiles. They may still work well with your Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan: check the slicer's own documentation or forums for a profile. You can also contribute profiles to our open-source slicer profile database on GitHub.
The app for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan
SimplyPrint works as the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan's app: on your phone and in any browser, with a slicer in the cloud.
There's no plate swapper or auto-ejection kit for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan in SimplyPrint yet, but AutoPrint can still keep it printing: once the plate is clear, it starts the next job from your queue.
Bed slingers are the easiest to automate
The Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan moves its bed back and forth, so its plate comes out to the front of the printer. That's what plate swappers like these use: they take the finished plate off and slide a fresh one on. Without a kit, a G-code routine can push cooled prints off with the toolhead.

What filament can the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan print?
Filament compatibility for the Bigtreetech BIQU Hurakan: the materials it can handle, judged from its hotend, bed, chamber and enclosure.
Filament
Suitability
Notes
PLA
Great
The easiest filament to print. Works on almost any printer; a heated bed helps adhesion but is not required.
PETG
Great
Comfortably in range (PETG likes a ~230-250C hotend and a ~70-85C bed).
TPU & flexibles
Great
The direct-drive extruder feeds flexible filament well. Print slowly for clean results.
ABS & ASA
With care
The bed is hot enough, but ABS and ASA warp without an enclosure, which is strongly recommended for clean prints.
Nylon (PA)
With care
Possible with care - an enclosure and very dry filament are essential.
Polycarbonate (PC)
Not ideal
Not recommended - PC needs very high hotend temps and an enclosed chamber.
Carbon-fiber & glass-filled
With care
Possible if you fit a hardened or wear-resistant nozzle - the abrasive fibers quickly wear a stock brass nozzle.
Tip: this is a general guide from the printer's specs - always check your filament's recommended settings. With SimplyPrint you can save a profile for each spool and track exactly what filament you have in stock.

BIGTREETECH (BTT) is a Shenzhen electronics company established in 2015, best known for 3D printer mainboards (SKR, Octopus, Manta), Klipper compute boards and other add-on hardware. BIQU is its sister brand for printers, extruders and upgrade kits. Its own printers (BIQU B1, BX, Hurakan) are a small part of the range; much of what it launched in 2025-2026 is add-ons for other brands' printers, such as the Panda line for Bambu Lab machines.
Founded:
2015 ·
Headquarters:
Shenzhen, China ·
Ownership:
Founder-led (founder and CEO Eric, per BIQU); BIQU and BIGTREETECH are sister brands ·
Website:biqu.equipment
Open: open-source firmware, published printer files, standard parts and no cloud. BTT is mainly an electronics and parts maker, so it has few printers of its own.
Firmware and custom firmware ●●●●●
BTT keeps an active GitHub with firmware, Klipper images and per-printer repositories (BIQU-Hurakan, BIQU-BX, B1). The Hurakan ships with Klipper and can also run Marlin, and upstream Klipper ships configs for its boards and the BIQU BX and B1 SE Plus.
[8][9][5][12]
Local control and integrations ●●●●●
Klipper is pre-installed on the Hurakan, and its built-in Wi-Fi lets you print, pause, check progress and change settings from the Mainsail interface on the local network; a USB drive prints without internet. Mainsail runs on Moonraker, whose API is documented. We found no BTT cloud or account.
[5][14]
Third-party filament, slicers and parts ●●●●●
Any filament, any slicer, and standard parts: BTT's business is interchangeable boards, extruders, hotends and plates that fit many brands, including its own printers.
[6][4]
Repairs and spare parts ●●●●●
Parts for its printers are sold one by one (H2 extruders, nozzles, boards, screens), and printer files are public on GitHub, including the Hurakan's 3D files and manual.
[6][9][10]
Community and documentation ●●●●●
BTT Wiki, a docs repository on GitHub, a company forum linked from its site, and a large user base for its boards; repositories for older printers are no longer updated.
[13][11][1]
Pros
Open-source firmware and published files across its printers and boards.
A huge range of standard spare parts and upgrades from the same company.
No cloud or account: Klipper and Marlin run on your own network or from USB/SD.
Active GitHub, wiki and forum.
Cons
Few complete printers; the Hurakan (2022) and B1/BX are older designs.
Its printers suit tinkerers; the Hurakan needs some assembly.
Most new BIQU products in 2025-2026 are add-ons for other brands' printers rather than new BIQU printers.
Track record
October 2022: BIQU released the Hurakan, a Klipper printer built around BTT's Manta M4P board and CB1 core, in the BIQU store.
