| Software notes | The system supports the proprietary HALOT BOX ecosystem, developed to optimize digital model transition and support generation. The electronic architecture is fully compatible with widely distributed third-party formats and programs such as CHITUBOX and Lychee Slicer, ensuring workflow flexibility. Connectivity features file transfer via an integrated USB port and remote management through wireless networks, relying on the mobile application for progress monitoring without binding the user to exclusive cloud infrastructure dependencies. | The device offers flexible connectivity manageable via integrated wireless network or standard USB port, facilitating the transfer of print files without physical proximity constraints. It natively supports the main formats generated by the most popular slicing software in the resin 3D printing landscape, such as CHITUBOX and Voxeldance Tango, ensuring full compatibility and flexibility in the digital workflow. The proprietary firmware ensures smooth management of settings directly from the touch screen interface integrated on the machine. Since no mandatory dependencies on closed cloud platforms are found, the user maintains total control over their files and local print preparation, guaranteeing maximum data privacy and operational continuity even without an internet connection. |
