| Software notes | Printer management is handled by the proprietary PreForm software, a well-proven tool that automatically optimizes model orientation, support generation, and build area layout. PreForm integrates natively with popular medical and dental CAD workflows, supporting standard formats such as STL and OBJ. The system offers advanced algorithms to calculate specific print parameters for each Formlabs resin. Connectivity is comprehensive, featuring options via USB, Ethernet, and local Wi-Fi. Although the Dashboard cloud platform is available for remote production monitoring and fleet management, the printer remains fully operational offline, ensuring the security of sensitive data within clinical environments. | 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. |
