| Software notes | Printer control is managed by PreForm, Formlabs' proprietary print preparation software. This application automatically optimizes model orientation, support generation, and layout arrangement, integrating specific algorithms to maximize the yield of medical resins. The system supports standard file formats such as STL and OBJ. Through the Dashboard cloud platform, users can monitor print status, track material consumption, and manage job queues remotely for entire fleets of machines. Although network connectivity (Wi-Fi and Ethernet) facilitates advanced management, the printer retains the ability to operate in local mode via data transfer via USB. | The printer is fully compatible with leading resin slicing software, including Chitubox and Lychee Slicer, ensuring flexibility in model preparation. A key advantage is its seamless integration with the Phrozen GO mobile app, which allows for 24/7 monitoring and remote management of the printing process. Firmware updates may be required to unlock certain advanced features, such as time-lapse photography in synergy with specific software versions of Chitubox. |
