| Software notes | The system is fully compatible with LightBurn, the industry-standard software for advanced vector preparation and control, and AtomStack Studio, the manufacturer's proprietary solution. It also features a built-in touchscreen for offline control, allowing complex jobs to be started without the need for a constantly connected computer. | Operational management is flexible, adapting to various workflows through dual software compatibility. The manufacturer provides xTool Creative Space, a free, proprietary application that is intuitive and beginner-friendly, supporting connectivity via Wi-Fi, USB cable, or TF card for offline operation. For experienced users requiring advanced vector editing capabilities and precise control over scanning parameters, the machine fully supports LightBurn. The latter requires a separate license purchase and initial setup via dedicated configuration files, but it unlocks the hardware's full potential for optimizing execution times and managing complex multi-layer projects. |
