Interactive tools to help you get better results from your laser engraver or cutter. No signup required — all free.
Calculate the optimal DPI, line interval, and image dimensions for any laser engraver. Works with LightBurn, xTool Creative Space, and all major software.
Answer a few questions and get matched to the right laser, CNC, or 3D printer for your budget, space, and projects.
Select your materials and instantly see which laser types are compatible — sorted by performance. Covers CO₂, diode, fiber, and UV lasers.
Interactive heatmap showing how well each laser wavelength is absorbed by different materials. See at a glance which laser type dominates for wood, metal, acrylic, and more.
Explore how laser wavelengths interact with materials. Visualize absorption rates for diode (450nm), CO₂ (10.6µm), fiber (1064nm), and UV (355nm) lasers.
Find the right laser for any material, or discover what materials your laser can process. Covers 48+ materials across all laser types.
Battle laser types head-to-head. Compare diode, CO₂, and fiber lasers by material compatibility, cutting speed, and price to find your winner.
See why "faster" doesn't always mean better. Interactive simulator showing the real tradeoffs between speed, acceleration, PWM frequency, and engraving quality.
Test laser settings virtually before cutting. Simulate speed, power, and material combinations to dial in your parameters without wasting material.
