BCN3D Stratos is compatible with the following operating systems:

idex-mode-stratos

The IDEX functionality allows you to choose the printing mode and which extruders will be active during the printing process.

	Dual Mode Both extruders will be enabled to print the part. This printing mode is used when it is necessary to use different materials or colors to build the model.
	Single Mode Only one extruder is enabled to print the model, in this way all the parameters are configured to print with the material that you have loaded in this extruder.
	Duplication Mode Both extruders will print symmetrically to build twice as many models at once. The printing capacity is doubled but the available build plate will be reduced by half.
	Mirror Mode It is similar to the duplication mode, although in this case one of the extruders will move as a reflection of the other to build the model and its mirror copy. The printing capacity is doubled but the available build plate is reduced to less than half the original size.
