| Software notes | 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. | Workflow management relies on a proprietary software ecosystem developed to optimize model preparation and machine control. The slicing software performs advanced calculations for automatic part orientation and optimized support generation, minimizing material consumption and facilitating post-print removal. Integration with remote monitoring platforms allows users to supervise job progress, residual resin levels, and hardware diagnostics via local networks or dedicated tools. Regular firmware updates ensure continuous refinement of printing parameters for the various supported materials, ensuring maximum compatibility and operational stability throughout the device's entire lifecycle. |
