| Software notes | The system supports standard file formats derived from the main slicing software on the market, offering full compatibility with Anycubic Photon Workshop. The native application provides advanced tools for optimal model orientation, automatic or manual generation of complex supports, and geometric resin compensation to prevent shrinkage issues. Although the printer includes network connectivity features for optional remote monitoring of the work cycle and file transfer via local network, all fundamental configuration and printing operations remain fully accessible offline via the integrated touch screen and USB input. | The system natively supports files generated by the most widespread industrial and commercial slicing applications, such as ChituBox and Voxeldance Tango. Built-in networking features allow for remote monitoring and file transfers via integrated Wi-Fi or a dedicated Ethernet interface, simplifying deployment within connected digital manufacturing pipelines. Firmware updates are regularly released by the manufacturer via downloadable files for USB installation, ensuring continuous optimization of curing algorithms and broad compatibility with newly developed photosensitive polymer resins. |
