The Anycubic Automated Color Engine, in your SimplyPrint panel

ACE Pro is to Anycubic what AMS is to Bambu Lab - a slot hub for unattended multi-colour printing. SimplyPrint tracks every slot, every chained unit, in real time across your fleet. The Anycubic ACE Pro is Anycubic's official multi-material system - 4 slots per unit, on-board filament drying, and the ability to chain up to 4 units together for 16 colours on supported Anycubic printers. SimplyPrint reads which slot has which spool, displays the live slot strip in the printer panel, and lets you track every spool through your Filament Manager.

Every slot tracked, every spool counted

Each ACE slot in SimplyPrint carries the loaded spool's colour, brand, material type and remaining weight. When a multi-color print finishes, the right amount comes off the right spool in your Filament Manager - so your inventory stays accurate even as the ACE swaps colours mid-print. No spreadsheets, no "which one did I use".

Slice multi-color files online - on any device

SimplyPrint's online slicer (OrcaSlicer, BambuStudio and PrusaSlicer engines) handles multi-color slicing for ACE-equipped printers. Add up to 4 filaments per ACE (16 across a chained x4 setup), assign colours to bodies or modifiers, slice, and queue - all from your browser, on any device. Even a Chromebook will do.

Chain up to 4 ACEs - one unified slot list

SimplyPrint treats a chained ACE setup as one continuous slot list per nozzle. Two chained ACEs show 8 slots in the panel; four chained ACEs show 16. Multi-color jobs can reference any slot across the chain, and the live slot view stays in sync with which spools are actually loaded.

Mapping support today, and what's coming

Mapping G-code for ACE depends on Anycubic publishing a stable command interface. SimplyPrint monitors Anycubic firmware releases and will ship mapping support within weeks of the spec becoming public. In the meantime, slot tracking and inventory deduction work fully - the slot strip in the panel tells you exactly which colour sits in which slot, so you can match your slicer assignment to the physical order in a few seconds, and Filament Manager deduction stays accurate.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. ACE Pro is a first-class multi-material system in SimplyPrint - live 4-slot strip, chain support up to 4 units, Filament Manager spool tracking and online multi-color slicing.
Not yet - we track and display the mapping for Filament Manager deduction and live slot view, but the printer-side mapping G-code is still on the roadmap. It'll ship once Anycubic publishes or stabilises the ACE mapping interface. In the meantime, load your slots in the order your slicer expects (you can see the assignment in the slot strip) and the print runs normally.
Yes. ACE Pro supports chaining up to 4 units, and SimplyPrint represents the full chain as one continuous slot list per nozzle - so a 4-ACE chain shows 16 slots in the panel and 16 selectable colours in the slicer.
Yes. SimplyPrint's online slicer supports multi-color slicing for any number of filaments you've loaded. The sliced file carries its extruder assignments into the print queue and the panel, so you can slice for ACE the same way you'd slice for any multi-material setup - in the browser, on any device.
ACE Pro works with Anycubic printers that have ACE compatibility built in - check Anycubic's product pages for the current compatibility list. SimplyPrint supports the ACE on any of those printers once you connect them.
ACE Pro live view, slot tracking and multi-color slicing are included on every plan, including Free. Auto eject and auto load during slot swaps is included from Basic upwards. Print queue auto-routing is included from Pro upwards.
