Engrave Photos with your Laser Upgrade Kit!

We have teamed up with the folks over at PicEngrave.com to add support for our upgrade kits in their photo engraving software.  With the software you can create awesome engraved images on your CNC machine or your 3D printer!  Take a standard .BMP image, load it into the software and generate the G Code file to make it come alive on wood, mirrors, and other materials.

Engrave with your 3D printer or CNC!

If your printer or CNC set-up has PWM control, then you can use this software!  The software takes each pixel value and turns it into a power level for the laser.  When running, the laser will change its power level on the fly to give the correct power level to match the pixel value.  This will turn the image into a perfectly engraved 256 level greyscale reproduction in your favorite material!

Image Editor Now Included!

Now easily manipulate your images to make them perfect for laser engraving.  You can adjust and make sure your image is the correct format for G Code translation.  Also, includes dithering algorithms for engraving with a TTL (ON/OFF) signal if you don’t have software power control of your laser (like most mach 3 machines).
