| Software notes | The machine is compatible with major slicing software on the market, offering maximum freedom in the workflow. Fully supported by CHITUBOX and Lychee Slicer, it reads the proprietary .CTB and .PRZ formats. Thanks to continuous updates of resin profiles, users can quickly import optimal printing parameters. File management and job initiation occur primarily through the local touchscreen interface and loading via USB drive, maintaining an offline and secure operational setup suitable for production environments. | The machine adopts an open approach and is fully compatible with the most popular third-party slicers on the market, including ChiTuBox and Lychee Slicer, offering maximum flexibility to expert users. This choice allows professionals to easily integrate the new hardware into established workflows without having to adapt to closed or restrictive proprietary software ecosystems. The absence of a forced cloud dependency also ensures full control over print files and the ability to operate offline in environments where data security and confidentiality, especially for industrial models or patents, are an absolute priority. |
