| 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 firmware is based on open architecture, ensuring compatibility with major slicers such as Ultimaker Cura and Slic3r. The official ecosystem is optimized for Simplify3D, which allows granular control over retraction and ceramic printing parameters. Users also have access to the WASP application, designed for parametric generation of complex geometric shapes specifically for clay processing. |
