LaserDRAW 10.0

LaserDRAW is a streamlined design-and-control app for laser cutting and engraving. Go from sketch to finished piece with intuitive vector tools, precise path planning, and a workflow built for makers, artists, educators, and small shops.

Key features

• Vector design made simple: shapes, Bézier curves, node editing, boolean operations, alignment, and text on path
• Import and export common formats: SVG, DXF, PDF, EPS, PNG, and JPG; trace bitmaps to clean vectors
• Layer-based workflow: map colors to cut/score/engrave with per-layer power, speed, passes, and order
• Image engraving tools: dithering, grayscale, contrast/curve controls, and resolution presets
• Toolpath optimization: inside-first cutting, automatic ordering, corner smoothing, lead-ins, kerf compensation, tabs/bridges
• Material presets: curated settings for popular materials, plus custom profiles you can save and share
• Preview and simulation: visualize paths, estimate time, and verify boundaries before you run a job
• Layout and nesting: arrays, offsetting, duplication, and space-efficient nesting to reduce waste
• Calibration and safety: bed sizing, step calibration, test patterns, boundary framing, pause/resume, and soft limits
• Connectivity and output: send jobs directly or export G-code and job files for common laser workflows
• Optional camera alignment: align artwork to real materials for precise placement when supported by your setup
• Project management: job history, notes, versioning, and reusable templates

Whether you’re prototyping, personalizing products, or running short production runs, LaserDRAW helps you iterate quickly and cut with confidence.
