Software notes Machine management is handled by the proprietary HALOT BOX software, developed to optimize curing parameters and advanced support generation. The printer also features seamless, native compatibility with widely used third-party solutions such as CHITUBOX and Tango, ensuring maximum flexibility in the digital workflow. Thanks to integrated network connectivity via Wi-Fi and Ethernet, users can monitor progress and manage files remotely using the proprietary cloud platform. However, this ecosystem remains entirely optional, allowing for full offline operation via standard USB flash drives. The system integrates seamlessly with the leading third-party slicing software available on the market, offering substantial operational flexibility. Users can utilize popular solutions such as ChiTuBox and Lychee Slicer, which feature pre-configured and optimized profiles for this specific model, simplifying file preparation and advanced support management. Connectivity occurs primarily via a USB port for offline file transfer, ensuring total stability during the printing process without the risk of interruptions caused by network fluctuations. Exposure parameters are fully customizable directly within the software, allowing for precise optimization across a wide range of both proprietary and third-party resins.
