MakeStar - Powerful Control and Operating Software
MakeStar is a powerful control and operating software for Farsoon’s metal and plastic systems. MakeStar imports the build file prepared in Farsoon BuildStar or a third-party software, and acts as the interface in which the user can assign Farsoon systems to start processing the build file. MakeStar is fully open and features a variety of functions and modules to enhance the build process.
- Ultimate process control
- Freedom for parameters optimization
- Great operational feasibility
- Expert & production mode available
- Traceable build process
- Improved productivity
- Excellent material efficiency
Open Platform
MakeStar is a fully open software package. The user is capable of editing key parameters to create the most optimized process for their individual needs. Various parameters are open to the user including laser parameters (laser power, laser spot, etc), scanning path parameters, powder parameters (recoating speed, layer thickness, etc), size compensation parameters, heating parameters and many others.
Advanced expert & Production Interface
The advanced expert mode enables the user full access to all parameters and control of the systems, which is well suited for the experienced users. The production mode features a streamlined and intuitive touch screen interface for easy daily operation of the systems in a serial production environment.
Real-Time Monitoring
MakeStar features real-time remote monitoring capability allowing the user to remotely view the build chamber as well as monitor key operation status including temperature, oxygen content, piston position, print height and other data.
Online Addition and Removal of Parts
MakeStar features “slice on the fly” capability, which enables the software to process the slicing operation as the system operates, allowing for “online” addition (polymer machines only) and removal of parts to the build file as it is being processed in the system.
Intelligent Powder Feed
MakeStarTM features the capability to analyze the build file and predict the optimum amount of powder required per build. This can then be translated into an optimized amount of powder added per layer resulting in overall reduced powder usage.
