Accessory
LightBurn software
Paid laser design and control software that drives most diode machines from one interface.
Which machines it fits
Universal — works with every machine we cover.
Why it matters
LightBurn combines design, layer settings, material tests, camera alignment and machine control. Most diode owners move to it for finer control over cut order, fills and test grids. It has a free trial, and every machine we cover also ships with free software.
What to look for
- Your machine on LightBurn's supported device list
- The right licence type for your controller
- Time in the free trial to set up your device profile and material library
