| Software notes | The system offers excellent versatility in terms of software control, ensuring native compatibility with standard solutions in the maker industry. It fully supports LightBurn, the most popular professional application for laser cutting and engraving management, and LaserGRBL, an open-source alternative ideal for more straightforward operations. Additionally, the machine features wireless connectivity capabilities that allow file transmission and monitoring via a proprietary mobile application, optimizing the workshop workflow. The absence of restrictions tied to proprietary cloud ecosystems ensures complete offline operational continuity, protecting project privacy and ensuring that the machine remains fully functional regardless of local network conditions. | Control is managed exclusively via xTool Creative Space (XCS), the proprietary software compatible with major desktop and mobile operating systems. XCS handles the multi-tool ecosystem, allowing seamless switching from laser cutting setup to blade cutting or inkjet printing within the same project. The software supports standard vector and raster file formats and includes automatic path optimization tools. Due to the complex multi-tool architecture, the system does not offer native compatibility with industry-standard software like LightBurn, binding the user to the manufacturer's official interface, which receives regular updates. |
The differences that matter
- Work area: A70 Max Laser Cutter 850×800 mm vs M1 Ultra Craft Machine 385×300 mm — A70 Max Laser Cutter wins (+489%)
