| Software notes | The system relies on an architecture based on native Klipper firmware, a configuration that guarantees advanced kinematics management and precise control of accelerations through input shaping algorithms. The local and remote user interface is managed fluidly, allowing full monitoring of print parameters without the need to depend on mandatory external cloud services. For file preparation, the machine supports the main slicing software available on the market, including Qidi Print, OrcaSlicer, and PrusaSlicer, offering optimized profiles to enhance production times and the surface quality of components. Connectivity options include wired network and Wi-Fi, facilitating the integration of the device into local networks of laboratories or digital workshops. | The printer is managed by the proprietary Snapmaker Luban software, which is free, intuitive, and offers pre-configured profiles for common materials. However, it is also fully compatible with leading third-party slicers such as Ultimaker Cura, PrusaSlicer, and Simplify3D. The machine is equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity and a USB port for flexible file transfer, along with a built-in 5-inch Android touchscreen for seamless local control, without requiring any cloud connectivity. |
