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 machine uses Simplify3D as its official, licensed slicer, whose workflow is optimized to handle the specific parameters of fluid-dense materials via the screw extruder. The system supports remote management via the network and monitoring via a TFT touchscreen interface, with control logic that allows for the configuration of variable retractions and flows, critical when working with ceramics, porcelain, or geopolymers.
