How to use Zmorph Fab
6. How to use your
Zmorph Fab 3D printer
Working with Zmorph Fab starts by preparing a 3D model in a modeling software that supports files in one
of the standard formats .stl, .obj, .step, .dxf or delivering a finished 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 files into G-code files and sending them to the
device. The program allows you to perform simple editing operations and optimize models using 3D filters
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 files.
After selecting the parameters and generating the G-code file, it should be saved. This file 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 file via Ethernet, but the transfer process 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 files, but they do not fully take advantage of
the capabilities of the Zmorph Fab device and do not provide the support for CNC and Laser toolheads.
After the finished file 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
filters. 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.
