| Software notes | The machine uses Duet firmware, accessible via the Duet Web Control protocol in a browser, eliminating the need for installable proprietary control software. For generating G-code files, the manufacturer recommends Simplify3D, although the system is compatible with any slicer capable of exporting code compatible with RepRap/Duet-based architectures. The interface allows for real-time adjustment of extrusion speed and print parameters, essential for managing the variable rheology of pastes and cements. | The system uses Duet firmware, offering a web-based control interface (Duet Web Control) accessible from any Wi-Fi-connected device. The machine does not require specific proprietary control software, but standard G-code-compatible slicing software is required to generate toolpaths. |
