| Software notes | The management of 3D models and print file preparation is supported by the main resin slicing software on the market, ensuring significant operational flexibility. Users can rely on widely used and appreciated solutions such as Chitubox and Lychee Slicer, which offer advanced tools for support generation and part orientation. Alternatively, the manufacturer provides the proprietary HALOT BOX software, specifically designed to integrate natively with the electronics and systems of this machine line. The motherboard is equipped with a built-in Wi-Fi module, enabling remote project submission and over-the-air firmware updates. Remote monitoring can be done via application, although the classic and stable file transfer via USB port remains fully supported. | Machine control and management rely on a flexible and modern software ecosystem. The device natively supports leading industry slicing programs, including ChituBox and Voxeldance Tango, ensuring extensive customization of printing parameters. Integrated Wi-Fi connectivity allows for remote monitoring and file transmission via cloud functionalities or cluster management, streamlining the workflow in multi-unit laboratory environments. The proprietary firmware handles real-time error notifications, such as resin shortage or residues in the vat, interfacing directly with the touchscreen display to guide the user through operational troubleshooting independently and safely. |
