What is a GOO file?
A GOO file is a 3D model sliced into layers for resin-based 3D printing. It is saved in the proprietary ELEGOO (GOO) format primarily used in ELEGOO 3D printing workflows from software to printers. GOO files store detailed instructions for a 3D printer, including exposure settings and layer thickness, and metadata, such as model dimensions and print time.
More Information
Hobbyists, designers, and professionals who work with ELEGOO's range of resin 3D printers are the primary users of the GOO format. These users typically craft high-resolution models for applications such as miniatures, prototypes, or functional parts. The format is prevalent among users of ELEGOO resin printers like the Saturn 3 Ultra and Jupiter SE.
Users generate GOO files with slicer software compatible with ELEGOO printers, most notably SatelLite. For example, the software imports a 3D model file (e.g., .STL or .OBJ) and slices it into layers, converting it into the GOO format with all necessary printing parameters. Users can then customize settings before exporting the file in GOO format.
How to open a GOO file
You can open GOO files with ELEGOO SatelLite in WIndows. To open a GOO file, click the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the upper-left corner of the app and select Open.
