| Software notes | The system supports file formats generated by the most popular third-party print preparation software, such as ChiTuBox and LycheeSlicer, ensuring operational flexibility and a consolidated workflow. The manufacturer also provides Anycubic Photon Workshop, the proprietary application optimized to fine-tune exposure parameters, manage advanced supports, and fully exploit the screen's pixel density without slowing down layer calculation. | The software ecosystem relies on the proprietary HALOT BOX application, developed to optimize model layout and automatic support generation. The user interface simplifies the processing of complex files and supports network connectivity via Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi, enabling remote monitoring and machine control. In addition to the official software, the printer guarantees native compatibility with widely used third-party slicers such as CHITUBOX and Lychee Slicer, giving advanced users the necessary flexibility to customize exposure parameters and printing profiles for specialty resins. |
