| Software notes | The operational control of the device interfaces natively with the industry's leading third-party software, ensuring broad configuration flexibility. Compatibility with professional programs like LightBurn allows advanced users to manage complex vector workflows and detailed engraving parameters, while support for LaserGRBL offers a functional alternative for quicker operations. Additionally, the integrated wireless connectivity permits a direct connection via the proprietary Inspiraesth application, facilitating project transmission and basic settings management from mobile devices. The system does not impose cloud-dependent workflows, maintaining complete local operability to protect project confidentiality. | The machine can be controlled via the proprietary Ortur app, available for mobile and desktop devices, which simplifies the engraving process with pre-configured settings for various materials. |
