  • Log scanner trajectory and output signals with plotted graphs
• Powerful Marking Options
  • MoF (Marking on the Fly), 2nd head, 3D
  • Sky Writing Mode 1/2/3 and 4
• Ramp (Automatic Laser Control) – Position dependent
  • Velocity(set or actual) dependent
  • Encoder speed dependent
• Scanner Field Correction
  • 2D / 3D correction
• Laser Power Control
  • Frequency, Duty Cycle, Analog, Digital
  • Built-in vendor integrations: AdvancedOptoWave, Coherent, IPG, JPT, Photonics Industry, Spectra Physics and more
• Powermeters & Powermap
  • Coherent (PowerMax), Thorlabs (via OPM), Ophir (via StarLab)
  • Powermap-based output compensation
• Various Entities and Formats
  • Point(s), Line, Arc, Polyline, Triangle, Rectangle, Spiral, Trepan, Spline
  • Layer, Group, Block and BlockInsert
  • Text, SiriusText, ImageText, Circular Text
  • Image, DXF, HPGL, ZPL
  • QR, DataMatrix, PDF417 Barcodes
  • 3D Mesh Format like as STL, OBJ, PLY
• Open Architecture
  • Editor and laser-source control code are open for customization

Major Changes

• Faster rendering with updated shader engine
• 3D-printer features: slicer integration and contour extraction
• Multiple hatch patterns with path optimizer
• Scanner, layer pen property system
• Various rendering modes (per-vertex, Z-depth, etc.)
• Multi-page documents
• Built-in wafer, substrate editor
• Switchable camera: orthographic / perspective

Packages / DLLs

• SpiralLab.Sirius3.Dependencies — SCANLAB RTC4/5/6, syncAXIS runtime, fonts, sample data
• SpiralLab.Sirius3 — HAL controllers (scanner/laser/powermeter, etc.)
• SpiralLab.Sirius3.UI — Entities, 3D renderer, WinForms UI controls
