3D Print QR Code Maker
Checked and verified · September 5, 2026
Turn any text or URL into a scannable QR code and export it as a ready-to-print STL file — pick the size, thickness, error-correction level, and whether the code is raised or engraved, with a live 3D preview. Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
Drag to rotate the preview, scroll to zoom.

- Type the text or URL you want the QR code to encode.
- Choose whether the code is raised (emboss) or carved in (engrave), and set how deep.
- Pick an error-correction level — higher levels stay scannable even with some print imperfections, at the cost of a denser code.
- Set the tag's width, height, and thickness, then pick sharp or rounded corners.
- Optionally add a keychain or lanyard hole — the code automatically shifts to avoid it.
- Drag to rotate and scroll to zoom the live 3D preview, then click Download STL to get a file ready to slice and print.
Frequently asked questions
Is my text or URL uploaded anywhere?
No — the QR code is generated and the 3D model is built and exported entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
What file format does this export?
A standard binary STL file — the format nearly every 3D printer and slicer (Cura, PrusaSlicer, and similar) expects.
What's the difference between raised and engraved?
Raised (emboss) modules sit on top of the plate. Engraved (intrude) modules are carved into it instead. Engraved depth automatically caps itself so at least 0.8mm of solid plate is always left underneath — enough to stay printable, even on a thin plate.
What does the error-correction level do?
A higher level (Q or H) keeps the code scannable even if part of it is damaged, dirty, or slightly misprinted — but it packs the data into more, smaller modules. For most short URLs, the default (M) is a good balance; go higher only if you expect the printed part to get scuffed or dirty.
Will the printed code actually scan?
Yes — the geometry this tool generates has been verified by actually decoding the produced 3D model with a real QR reader. If the preview warns that modules are very small, though, use a larger plate, shorter text, or a lower error-correction level for a more reliably scannable print.
Do I need a 3D printer to use this?
You'll need access to one (your own, a friend's, a local makerspace, or a print-on-demand service) to actually print the exported STL file — this tool only designs and exports it.
Your files are never uploaded. Gotool.xyz runs entirely as JavaScript in your browser. Your files are processed in memory and never touch a server — nothing to breach, nothing to clean up. Close the tab and it's like it never happened. The only thing we count is which tool ran (just the name, e.g. "merge") so we know what people find useful — never your file, its name, its size, or anything in it.
