MARKETING@SOLUKON.DERecently, Solukon launched a new version of its depowdering software: SPR-Pathfinder PRO®. SPR-Pathfinder PRO® was developed as a direct response to the growing complexity of industrial AM parts and offers significantly higher simulation resolution, precise process time forecasting, and improved validation of the depowdering process already during the design phase.
Since the launch, we have received a number of questions. We have compiled the most frequently asked questions and answers about SPR-Pathfinder PRO®.
What are the key features of SPR-Pathfinder® PRO?
SPR-Pathfinder® PRO
- offers 20x higher simulation resolution.
- enables a transparent cross-sectional view of the part in all planes (X, Y, Z).
- indicates how long depowdering will take in the Solukon system.
When do I need SPR-Pathfinder® PRO, and when is SPR-Pathfinder® BASIC sufficient?
SPR-Pathfinder® BASIC is ideal for medium-complexity parts and customers who do not need simulation or Design for Depowdering insights and just want to have a depowdering program. It supports files up to 100 MB. For highly complex components, larger files, and full depowdering simulation with design recommendations, SPR-Pathfinder® PRO is required.
I want to upgrade from an “old” SPR-Pahtfinder® version or SPR-Pathfinder® BASIC to SPR-Pathfinder® PRO. Is this possible?
Yes. There are special conditions for existing SPR-Pathfinder® users. Please reach out to our Team.
I have an older SPR-Pathfinder® license. Can I still use it?
Existing software licenses remain valid, of course. If you would like to upgrade to SPR-Pathfinder® PRO, please contact us for a quotation.
DO I NEED A SUBSCRIPTION
FOR THE SPR-PATHFINDER®
SOFTWARE?
No, the SPR-Pathfinder® software is not used on a subscription basis. Users purchase the software once and have lifelong access.
Can I use one software license to calculate programs for multiple Solukon systems?
