| Software notes | The system uses the Duet Web Control firmware, which allows for complete management via a web interface on any Wi-Fi-connected device, without requiring dedicated control software installed locally. For toolpath generation (slicing), the manufacturer recommends using Simplify3D, although the machine is compatible with any software capable of exporting G-code files. The architecture is open to the integration of auxiliary systems for material flow management via standard protocols. | 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. |
