Academy library

Setup guides, workflow notes, and application studies

This library collects the practical layer of Academy: setup, path generation, G-code, plugins, video studies, and operating context.

Setup

Getting started

Start with unpacking, assembly, and first machine preparation if you are new to the system or setting up after delivery.

Open setup guide
Plugin

Plugin and path generation

Go straight to the Inkscape workflow if your next step is converting patterns into sprayable paths and G-code.

Workflow help

Need workflow help for a real application?

Use the direct support route when the guide is no longer enough and the workflow already depends on your material, substrate, or process window.

Use the knowledge base by task, not by archive order

The key questions usually repeat: how to set the machine up, how to generate paths, how to estimate process limits, and where to find a fast answer before starting a custom exchange.

Typical workflow

Most teams move through the same three questions before the process becomes stable

01

Prepare the machine and material

Start with assembly, safe handling, substrate choice, and the material conditions that will shape the spray result.

02

Generate the path and process logic

Use the plugin and workflow guidance to translate the geometry into paths, nozzle motion, and machine instructions.

03

Tune the deposition, then document it

Adjust speed, stand-off, nozzle opening, and heat until the process becomes reproducible enough for the real experiment.

Need a direct answer?

If the workflow question is already specific to your material, substrate, or target geometry, ask us directly

We can help you decide whether the next step is standard guidance, a machine recommendation, or a custom project discussion.
