Your first project
Draw a small design, choose what each layer should do, and inspect the job in software before connecting a machine.
Draw and preview a test design
- Open LaserStudio and choose File → New. Check that the canvas dimensions match the work area you intend to use.
- Choose a drawing tool on the left, then click and drag on the canvas to draw a rectangle. Press V on the canvas or click the pointer to return to selection.
- Open Cuts and Layers. Choose Line for a cut outline or Fill for a closed engraved region. Set the layer’s speed, power and passes for your own machine and material.
- Open Preview job. Show travel moves and step through the job to check the order and placement.
- Save a
.laserprojfile so you can reopen and edit the artwork and layer settings.
Work offline first. Preview and software simulation can be used without a laser connection.
