| Cloud dependency | No | No |
| Software notes | The machine is fully analog and mechanical, with no digital components or control interfaces requiring the use of external software. Speed and positioning control is done manually using levers, cranks, and by repositioning the transmission belts. | As a traditional, entirely analog machine, it does not require any management software for its operation. The workflow is completely manual and controlled via physical switches and levers directly on the unit. There is absolutely no dependency on cloud services or network connectivity. |
