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. 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.
