Software notes Compatible with LightBurn, LaserGRBL, and any software that outputs G-code to a GRBL controller. The board uses open GRBL firmware, allowing for customizable engraving parameters without locking you into proprietary software. LightBurn requires a separate license (about €99). The system is fully compatible with major industry software packages, offering users maximum operational flexibility without relying on internet connections or cloud platforms. It natively supports LightBurn, the industry-standard premium software for those needing advanced design tools and optimized laser parameter control. For users seeking a free solution, the machine integrates seamlessly with LaserGRBL, still ensuring excellent results for standard engraving and cutting operations. The file format handling is highly versatile, encompassing vectors and raster images such as SVG, DXF, JPG, and PNG, thereby allowing operators to easily import design projects from virtually any CAD modeling or two-dimensional graphics environment.
