6. How to use your ZMorph VX 3D printer
Working with ZMorph VX starts by preparing a 3D model in a modeling software that
supports les in one of the standard formats .stl, .obj, .step, .dxf or delivering a nished
model acquired from external sources.
Then, the model has to be opened in a software dedicated by the manufacturer called
Voxelizer. It allows you to manage 3D printing, CNC milling and laser engraving. It is a
unique original application for slicing 3D models into layers, creating a whole chain of
processing 3D les into G-code les and sending them to the device. The program al-
lows you to perform simple editing operations and optimize models using 3D lters and
intelligent system of support structures. Voxelizer also has advanced algorithms such
as projecting an image onto a 3D object, allowing multi-material printing of images from
.png and .bmp les.
After selecting the parameters and generating the G-code le, it should be saved. This
le can be delivered to the device using an SD card or imported to an internal memory
using a USB connection. You can also transfer a le via Ethernet, but the transfer pro-
cess will be slower. To avoid the risk of data transfer interruption, it is recommended to
use an SD card.
Alternatively, other software can be used to generate G-code les, but they do not fully
take advantage of the capabilities of the ZMorph VX device and do not provide the sup-
port for CNC and Laser toolheads.
After the nished le in G-code format has been delivered to the device, it can be started
by using the touch panel on the device, or by connecting to the device via Ethernet cable.
It can be started directly from the Internet browser on the computer.
The product is intended for indoor use only. The device is not protected against moisture
and has no air lters. The spaces in which the device operates must be dust-free, dry
and well ventilated. When working with plastics (e.g. ABS, Nylon), harmful fumes can be
released.
Unauthorised uses
• It is forbidden to operate the device near ammable substances.
• It is forbidden to install the device outside areas which are dry and free from humidity
or dust.
