NC Sender is the most common mode of engraving,it can satisfy most of the engraving needs,fast and Very good effect.
Here are the details.
Load NC file: load NC file (g-code file);
load CAD DXF filetips: Some versions of the file are not compatible, When you save DXF files,
select version: AutoCAD 2000, and the unit is mm).
Start /speed: Repeats(Repeated several times when used for cutting);
Speed(to adjust the speed); test size: test the size before start,for positioning).
Create image Nc file: load picture from computer,adjust the details and size.
Select the mode that you like. Look at the difference:
Create text Nc file: enter the text and select one of the font ,setting the char height

LaserWeb is open-source laser cutter and engraver software, and [JordsWoodShop] made a video tutorial (embedded below) on how to convert a cheap laser engraver to use it. The laser engraver used in the video is one of those economical acrylic-and-extruded-rail setups with a solid state laser emitter available from a variety of Chinese sellers (protective eyewear and any sort of ventilation or shielding conspicuously not included) but LaserWeb can work with just about any hardware, larger CO2 lasers included.
LaserWeb is important because most laser engravers and cutters have proprietary software. The smaller engravers like the one pictured above use a variety of things, and people experienced with larger CO2 laser cutters may be familiar with a piece of software called LaserCut — a combination CAD program and laser control that is serviceable, but closed (my copy even requires a USB security dongle, eww.)
LaserWeb allows laser engravers and cutters to be more like what most of us expect from our tools: a fully open-source toolchain. For example, to start using LaserWeb on one of those affordable 40 W blue-box Chinese laser cutters the only real hardware change needed is to replace the motion controller with an open source controller like a SmoothieBoard. The rest is just setting up the software and enjoying the added features.
If you’d prefer to roll your own machine from scratch, we have a list of helpful hints on homebrewing a system. Since handling exhaust is always an issue, check out this DIY fume extractor and filter setup for a laser cutter that took advantage of some items from IKEA.
Thanks for the tip, [Peter]!
