| Software notes | The device natively supports the proprietary ChituBox preparation software and is fully compatible with popular third-party slicers in the industry. File management and remote monitoring are handled via the desktop application connected to the local Wi-Fi network. Advanced functions of the integrated camera enable automatic time-lapse video generation and anomaly identification during the placement of initial layers. File transfer is not bound to mandatory proprietary remote servers, ensuring operational continuity offline via the USB port. | The device ensures broad compatibility with the main third-party slicing software programs available on the market, including widely used solutions such as ChiTuBox and Lychee Slicer. File management is primarily handled via offline transfer using the USB port located on the front of the chassis, or by utilizing the wired Ethernet network connection for remote monitoring within a local network. There are no restrictions or dependencies on proprietary cloud platforms, allowing users to work in complete autonomy and protect the intellectual property of their print files without requiring an active internet connection during the manufacturing process. |
