The short version

What you cannot get elsewhere.

Most of what a cutting program does, every cutting program does. These are the places where this one is genuinely the only option, or clearly the better one, and each is something you can check yourself in an afternoon.

AreaStateWhat it means on the bench
Making tools ▲ only here Box generator, finger joints, living hinge, press-fit slot, dogbone relief, kerf strip, puzzle maker, slot tray. Ten of them. The software that ships with these machines has no joint generator at all, so a shop doing flat-pack work draws every tab by hand and scraps a test sheet each time the thickness changes.
Marks found for you ▲ ahead One Scan button walks the registration marks, sharpens its own guess at each one, and refuses a fit that came out mirrored. The usual way is to jog the head onto every mark by hand and hope you clicked the right pixel.
The camera already on the machine ▲ only here The camera fitted to these beds is not an ordinary webcam, and most cutting software cannot talk to it at all. This drives it directly on Windows and macOS, with no vendor driver to install, so a machine that already has one keeps it.
Two tubes ▲ ahead Aimed separately, as a real feature, with a crash guard for the head that has no limit switch. Elsewhere it is a virtual array plus two settings buried behind a vendor password, and it goes wrong quietly if either one is off.
A connection that repairs itself ▲ ahead Stale ports picked up again, the same machine listed twice collapsed into one, and the sibling machine named when you choose the wrong one. A machine that will not connect is the most common reason people give up on the software that came in the box.
Errors that name the next step ▲ ahead Including a check before anything is sent, for the trap where a layer's output toggle quietly decides what cuts and what does not.
It does not lose the afternoon ▲ ahead Tabs come back after a crash or a restart, offered rather than silently put in front of you. Closing one with unsaved changes says so first. A running job can be stopped from the software instead of by killing it. And the coolant interlock refuses to fire a dry tube whatever anyone has clicked, because that is the one failure where the machine destroys itself rather than the work.
One button, and it says what is in the way ▲ ahead The run panel works out the whole path from this drawing to a cut part, in the order it has to be walked, and shows all of it at once. Every step reads the real state of the machine and the file. Not one of them is a box you tick yourself, because a checklist you fill in by hand drifts out of step with the bench.
The file does not leave ▲ ahead Draw it, repair it, joint it, nest it and cut it in one place. No round trip out to a drawing program and back, and no export step in the middle that quietly drops a curve or flattens a layer on the way through.
Files it opens ▲ ahead SVG, DXF, PDF, AI including the older flavour, CorelDRAW, HPGL and photographs. CorelDRAW files in particular are what a lot of job shops actually draw in, and most cutting software will not read one, so the file goes through an export step that loses something every time.
Price ▲ ahead One subscription covers every machine on your floor and both platforms. There is no higher tier that holds the making tools back, and no charge per bed.

Prices, platforms and controller support checked on each vendor's own site, 2 September 2026. They change; if you are deciding on price, check before you buy.

Where RDWorks is still the right answer

It came with the machine and it writes settings into the controller. Laseras deliberately never writes controller settings: they are the recovery path when everything else has gone wrong, and a program that can overwrite them can lose them. If you need to change what is stored on the controller itself, that is RDWorks' job, and it should stay installed.

Where LightBurn is ahead

Breadth and years. It drives galvo and fibre machines and dozens of controller brands that Laseras does not touch, it runs on Linux, and it has been refined by a large community for long enough that the corners are worn smooth. If you own several kinds of laser, it is the one program that runs all of them.

Where Laseras is ahead

The work that happens either side of the cut. No other program here generates a joint, packs parts onto a remnant it traced off the bed, merges three orders onto one sheet without tripling the cutting passes, or remembers what a material actually did last time. That is where a shop loses hours and material, and it is what Laseras was built to take back.

The full comparison, all 38 rows

One operator, several machines

Every machine on one screen.

Add all of them. Each keeps its own bed size, its own camera and its own settings. A dropdown above the canvas says which machine this design cuts on, so the same file can go to whichever bed is free.

1300 x 900one head1200 x 1200two tubes900 x 600one head

Three beds to each other's scale: 1300 x 900 and 900 x 600 with one head, 1200 x 1200 with two tubes

Before the first cut

It finds the machine, and it opens the file.

These are the two ways a morning gets lost, and neither of them has anything to do with cutting. A machine that will not connect, and a drawing that will not open. Both were built before anything else here.

found on its ownSVGDXFPDFAICDRPLTopened as they are

The machine answers on its own, and the drawing opens as it is

The connection repairs itself

A port that went stale when the machine was power cycled is picked up again on its own. The same machine listed twice by the operating system is collapsed into one entry. And when you have two machines and choose the wrong one, it tells you which one you actually chose instead of cutting on it.

Six drawing formats, and photographs

SVG, DXF, PDF, AI, HPGL and CorelDRAW files open directly. CorelDRAW in particular is what a lot of shops actually draw in, and most cutting software will not read it, so the file goes through an export step that loses something every time.

It says what it skipped

Anything the drawing contained that could not be cut is listed after import, along with what was repaired. Silence would be worse.

Broken paths get closed

Gaps too small to see are joined, duplicate lines on top of each other are removed, and specks of debris are dropped. All of it reported.

Over USB or the network

Whichever the machine has. If it drops mid job, the job is not lost with it.

Print and cut

You do not need a camera to cut a printed sheet.

Touch the four corners of the print with the laser head. Laseras reads the rotation and the size error out of those four points and bends the cut path to match. A sheet that went in a couple of degrees crooked still comes out right, with no camera to buy, mount or calibrate.

Touch each corner of the print with the head, in order

bed 1 2 3 4 READ FROM THE FOUR POINTS rotation 3.40 deg scale X 0.998 scale Y 1.001 cut path corrected

With a camera, if you have one

The camera visits four marks and corrects its own aim between each one. The last mark is held back as a check: if it is not where the fit says it should be, nothing cuts.

Line the camera up in three steps

Cut a cross, send the camera to it, click the middle. A camera that got knocked is back in a minute instead of an afternoon.

Lining things up

The camera lines itself up.

The head burns four marks on a scrap sheet and the camera reads them back. Because the machine put them there, it already knows where they are, so calibration is two presses instead of a tape measure and a page of arithmetic.

It burns the marks itself, then reads them back

Print and cut, with a camera

Put the printed sheet on the bed and press Scan. The camera finds the registration marks itself, works out how the sheet is sitting, and cuts to the print. No jogging the head to each mark by hand.

Print and cut, without one

The same job on a machine with no camera at all. Touch the head to each corner of the print and the maths is the same. Nobody has to buy a camera to line up a printed sheet.

Measure with the head

Jog to one point, then another, and it tells you the real distance between them. The machine is already an accurate measuring instrument.

Two heads, measured

The gap between two tubes is measured the same way, and the second tube stays off until you have confirmed it.

The lens, corrected

A wide lens bends straight lines near the edges. Both correction models are fitted from the marks, so the bed reads flat corner to corner.

Dual tube

Engrave with one tube. Cut with the other.

Two tubes, two separate aims, one job. Engrave and cut without unloading the sheet or splitting the file. It ships switched off, because aiming a second tube is powerful and unforgiving, and it turns on only once you have measured the distance between the heads and confirmed it.

The inside is engraved first, then the outline is cut

The same material three ways: scored, engraved, and cut clean through

Auto-nest

Fit more parts on every sheet.

Select the parts and let it pack them. It works on the real outline, not the bounding box, so a part drops into the hollow of another instead of reserving a rectangle it never fills. Material is the cost you pay on every sheet, and this is where the software pays for itself.

The same nine parts, laid out by hand and packed automatically

AS DRAWN 2 sheets nest NESTED 1 sheet offcut WHAT IT DID parts turned 4 sheets used 1 of 2 gap held 2.0 mm grain kept yes one sheet saved

It packs the shape, not a box around it

A rectangle drawn around a circle wastes the four corners. Nesting on the outline lets a small part sit in that corner, which is where most of a sheet actually goes.

Grain direction respected

Turn grain lock on and parts only rotate in ways that keep the grain running the right way. On plywood and veneer that is the difference between a part you can sell and firewood.

The gap works itself out

Give it the kerf and the thickness and it widens the spacing on its own, because thick material welds itself back together when parts sit too close.

Mirroring, only if you say so

A flipped part often drops into a pocket the original cannot. It is off by default, because a mirrored part is the wrong part on anything with a printed or finished face.

Leftovers are shown, not dropped

Anything that will not fit stays where it was and becomes the selection, so you can see exactly which parts are over instead of counting what moved.

Making things that assemble

Tools that turn a flat sheet into a finished thing.

This is the part you will not find elsewhere. Say how thick the material is and the joint maths is done: fingers cut, kerf allowed for, slots sized to press together. Twenty minutes of paper work and a scrapped test sheet, gone, every time the thickness changes. The puzzle maker is the same idea taken to its end: it puts a curved tab on every internal line of the grid, so the pieces hold each other the way a bought jigsaw does.

Five panels, teeth cut to the material thickness, and what they stand up into

Box generator

Type the outside size and the material thickness. Every panel comes out finger jointed, kerf allowed for, laid flat and ready to cut.

Finger joints

Put a real finger joint on any edge. Tooth count, depth and fit are worked out from the thickness, so the parts press together instead of rattling.

Living hinge

Fills a panel with flex cuts so a flat sheet bends. Wrap a curve, make a rounded box corner, or hinge a lid without a hinge.

Press-fit slot

A slot cut to the material so another panel presses straight in and stays. Set the width to the thickness and the fit is handled.

Corner relief

Dogbone reliefs in inside corners, so a square tab actually seats in a square pocket instead of jamming on the radius.

Holding tabs

Leaves short uncut bridges so parts stay in the sheet until you snap them out. No more small parts dropping through mid-job.

Slot tray

A flat-pack tray with an interlocking divider grid. The dividers slot together like an egg box, no glue and no fasteners.

Puzzle maker

A jigsaw cut pattern with proper curved tab connectors, so the pieces actually hold each other rather than falling apart.

Auto-nest parts

Packs the parts onto the sheet, rotating them to fit, with the spacing you set. More parts per sheet, less offcut in the bin.

Grid of copies

Fills the sheet with a grid of whatever is selected, with the gap you choose. One part becomes a full sheet in a couple of clicks.

Remove shared cuts

Where two parts touch, the beam cuts that line once instead of twice. Faster job, less scorch, and no double-burnt edge between parts.

Photo engrave

Turns a photograph into engrave scan lines with proper dithering, so a picture survives being burnt into wood instead of going to mud.

Making tools

Box generator, finger joints, living hinge, press-fit slot, dogbone relief, holding tabs, slot tray, puzzle maker, kerf strip, test square.

Kerf, allowed for

The beam has width. Every joint here takes it out of the right side of the line, so parts press together instead of rattling.

Nesting that packs

Auto-nest rotates and spaces parts to get more out of a sheet, and can leave holding tabs so nothing drops through mid-job.

Why this matters more than it sounds

Working out a finger joint by hand is twenty minutes and one wasted sheet every time the material thickness changes. Doing it from the thickness, automatically, is the difference between quoting a job and turning it down.

Everything in the box

61 tools. A shop uses six.

All of them are in one searchable list, and the six you actually reach for stay pinned at the top. Search understands the words other programs use, so a rename never costs you the tool you already knew how to find.

The tool catalogue in the application, grouped by category with a count on each heading and the pinned tools kept at the top.

Pinned stays put

Pin the six you use. They sit above everything else, in every session.

Search knows synonyms

Type what you called it somewhere else. Offset finds three different tools here.

Counted, not endless

Each category says how many are in it, so the list has a shape instead of scrolling forever.

Tap any tool in Laseras University for what it does, the steps, and a drawing of it working.

Making things that assemble

10

The joint maths, done for you. Most of this exists nowhere else.

Box generator

Type the box size and get every panel finger-jointed and laid out, ready to cut. Sizes are outside dimensions.

Corner relief (dogbone)

A panel with a notch whose inside corners get a small round relief pocket, so a square tab seats fully. Useful for acrylic and slots a peg pushes into.

Finger joints

A panel with one edge turned into interlocking finger teeth. Make one with tabs and one with slots for a mating pair.

Holding tabs

Breaks a short uncut gap into every closed cut shape so parts stay held in the sheet. Snap them free by hand after the job.

Kerf test strip

A strip of numbered slots to measure the beam width. Cut it, slide a scrap of the same material into each slot, and the snug one's number is the kerf.

Living hinge

Fills a panel with flex cuts so it bends. Fills the selected shape if one is selected, otherwise draws its own panel. Cut a test strip first to check it bends without snapping.

Press-fit slot

A slot sized to the material so another panel presses straight in. Set the width to the thickness minus the kerf; a scrap edge should push in snug.

Puzzle maker

A jigsaw puzzle cut pattern. Every internal grid line gets bezier tab connectors so the pieces lock together like a real jigsaw.

Slot tray

A flat-pack tray with an interlocking grid of dividers. Col and row dividers slot together egg-crate style; the base has edge notches to seat them.

Test square

Draw a square of a given size for focus and power tests.

Cutting and paths

8

What the beam does, in what order, and how far it travels.

Auto-nest parts

Packs selected shapes onto the sheet with rotation and spacing to cut waste.

Calibrate axis

Generates a calibration square to check if your machine's X and Y axes are accurate.

Cut order

Sets the order the machine cuts in, and how much it allows for the width of the beam. These are job settings, not a change to your drawing.

Focus test

Cuts a line at each of a series of focus heights, with the height engraved beside it, so you can pick the sharpest one off the sheet.

Measure the beam width

Generates a calibration pattern to measure the laser beam width.

Remove shared cuts

Removes duplicate line segments shared between adjacent shapes.

Reverse cut direction

Reverses the direction of selected paths.

Test burns

Generates a power and speed test grid so you can find the right settings for your material.

Drawing and editing

26

Everything you need so a file never has to leave for another program.

Barcode (Code 128)

Generates a Code 128 barcode as laser-cuttable vector bars.

Clean up paths

Tidies the points inside each selected path: repeated points, points on a straight run, segments too short to be worth a command, surplus nodes, and circles drawn with far more points than they need. Says how far the path moved.

Clip art

Inserts common laser-cut shapes: arrow, star, hexagon, cross, heart outline.

Close open shapes

Closes selected open paths by connecting the last point to the first.

Copies along a path

Lays copies of the selected parts along a path, evenly spaced by distance travelled. Select the parts, then add the path to the selection last. Turn the copies to follow the path, or keep them all upright.

Copies in a circle

Arranges copies of the selection in a circular pattern.

Cut one shape out of another

Cut a hole in a panel with the shape lying on top of it. Select the panel first and the cutter last: the topmost shape is cut out and disappears, the panel keeps its layer. Also called subtract or difference.

Delete duplicates

Removes shapes that are exact duplicates (within 0.01mm tolerance).

Expand or shrink

Positive grows the shape, negative shrinks it. Use for kerf compensation or press-fit slots.

Grid of copies

Fills the sheet with a grid of copies of whatever is selected. The original stays where it is and the copies step out from it. Spacing is the gap between parts, or switch it to centre to centre.

Keep only the overlap

Keeps only the piece where the selected shapes cover each other and drops the rest. Also called intersect.

Offset outline

Grows or shrinks the selected closed shapes by a set distance. A positive distance goes outward, a negative one goes inward. Raise the count for concentric rings, each one further out than the last. The shapes you started with stay where they are.

Outline the whole group

Creates the convex hull outline of selected shapes.

QR code

Generates a scannable QR code as laser-engraved vector squares.

QR readability check

Draws the outline a QR code fills at a chosen dot size, plus one dot on its own to compare, so you can see whether it will still scan before you engrave it.

Remove points in a line

Removes redundant collinear points from selected paths. Reduces node count on dense imported paths to speed up the job planner.

Remove the overlap

Keeps what belongs to one shape only and removes the piece they share, leaving a gap where they crossed. Also called exclude or XOR.

Serial label sheet

Cuts a sheet of blank label blanks at a set size, ready for you to drop text or artwork into each one.

Serial labels

Generates multiple text labels with auto-incrementing serial numbers.

Set size and position

Moves and scales selected shapes to exact numeric values.

Shapes library

Save and reuse shapes across jobs.

Simplify path

Reduces the number of nodes in selected paths by removing points within tolerance.

Smooth and repair

Smooths sharp corners and snaps near-miss endpoints in open paths.

Split shapes

Splits a compound path into individual sub-paths.

Trace outline

Creates a silhouette outline at a fixed distance around all selected shapes.

Weld shapes

Merges overlapping shapes into one solid outline and fills any enclosed holes. Union keeps a hole; weld fills it.

Engraving and images

9

Photographs, halftones and fills that survive being burnt.

Dot pattern engrave

Fills the selected shapes with an even grid of engraved dots, for a stipple or halftone look.

Engrave fill

Fills selected closed shapes with parallel scan lines.

Engrave the background

Creates the inverse of selected shapes as an engrave fill within the bounding box.

Fill with lines

Fills closed shapes with parallel scan lines at a chosen angle, clipped to the shape's boundary. Enable cross for a two-direction crosshatch in one pass.

Fill with rings

Fills closed shapes with concentric inward offset rings.

Material test grid

Burns a matrix of squares at different power and speed settings to find the right parameters for a new material.

Photo engrave

Converts an imported photo to laser engrave scan lines using image dithering.

Text on a path

Writes text along a line or an outline. Select the path first, then type the words. Letters are spaced by distance travelled along the path and turned to follow it. Positive offset sits the words above the path, 0 sits them on it, negative sits them below.

Thicken tiny strokes

Converts open paths into closed outlines by expanding them to the given width.

Camera

4

Line the camera up and put a printed sheet exactly where it belongs.

Camera print and cut

Line the cut up with a printed sheet using the bed camera. The camera walks the sheet's registration marks, reads each one, and checks the result against a mark it held back before anything cuts.

Dot size check

Generates test lines at different speeds for measuring laser spot size.

Manual print and cut

Line the cut up with a printed sheet by hand. Jog the head onto each printed mark or sheet corner, and the design is turned, shifted and resized to match what the head measured.

Trace live image

Traces shapes from the camera bed image. Connect a camera and switch to Cut mode to use this.

Head and measurement

3

Use the head itself as a measuring instrument.

Find material centre

Jog the head to two opposite edges, mark each, and the machine moves to the midpoint.

Head measurement

Generates a visible reference line between two stored head positions to measure distance.

Save head position

Saves the current machine position as a named origin point for future jobs.

Machine

1

Settings that live on the controller.

Rotary preview

Copies selected shapes with Y scaled by the object-to-roller ratio. Shows how the design will appear on a cylindrical surface.

How it behaves

It tells you why.

Controls do not disappear when they cannot be used. They stay where they are and say what is blocking them, so you fix the cause instead of hunting through menus for a feature you are no longer sure exists.

Measured
Every number on screen came from the machine. Bed size, homing corner and head position are read off the controller. Laseras never overwrites the controller's own saved settings: those are your way back.
One press
To repeat a job. The safety checklist is answered once per job, not once per part. Change the power, the shapes, the head, or lose the machine connection, and it asks again.
Yours
Your files stay on your bench. Designs are not uploaded anywhere and nothing is processed on someone else's computer.

Learning it

The manual is inside the tool.

Every tool has a small i beside its name. Press it and you get three drawings: what you start with, what the tool does to it, and what comes off the bed. One sentence under each. No video to find, no PDF to search, and nothing to read standing up that was written sitting down.

324

Drawn frames

Across 55 of the 61 tools. The rest are pickers and panels that carry their own guide, where a second drawing would only repeat it.

11

Lessons

Whole jobs rather than single buttons: connect the machine, set the profile, calibrate the camera, frame, and line up a printed sheet.

Written once

The i button and the University read the same guide, so the two can never drift into telling you different things.

What actually cuts

The first lesson is the one that costs sheets. A layer switched off still draws on screen and is never sent, so the canvas and the machine can disagree without a word. The lesson puts them side by side.

Plain words

Nothing in the app says homography, affine or residual. Not in a guide, not in an error, not anywhere. If a sentence needs a glossary it has not been written yet.

Not on your own

Ask the shop next door.

Two rooms, both built into the software rather than parked on a forum somebody has to remember to visit. Ask about a problem you are hitting and get an answer from the people who own the same machine. Share a design you cut, and take one somebody else cut.

Ask about a problem you hit

Post the question with a screenshot. Other operators and the people who wrote the software answer, and the answer that worked gets marked so the next person does not read the whole thread.

Share a design you cut

Post preview images and the cut file. Give it away, or set a price. Download what other makers share and open it straight in Laseras.

The maker gets paid

A priced design links to the maker's own store. The money and the file go directly between the two of you.

No account to make

Your name and your machine show beside your posts. There is no password and no sign-up, and it stays on your computer.

Searchable

The machine side, in full

Drive the head, frame, register a printed sheet with or without a camera, and cut. Every day of the thirty.

The making tools run

Box generator, finger joints, living hinge and the rest all work, and you see the flat pattern they produce.

Their files stay inside Laseras

Until you subscribe, a generated pattern cannot be cut, exported or copied out to another program. You can see it. You cannot take it.

Get it

Put it on your machine this week.

Install it, point it at the machine on your bench, and run your next job on it. Windows and macOS, same features on both.

Works with RDC6445, RDC6442, RDC6332 and similar controllers, over USB or over the network.

Who makes it

Built by a shop that runs the machines.

Laseras is made by Inultimate Ventures Pvt Ltd in Mumbai. It started because the software on our own machines kept getting in the way, and every feature here was written to fix something that had already gone wrong on our bench.

The registration maths was worked out because a printed sheet came out rotated. The head spacing warning exists because a job cut in the wrong place. The pause button is greyed because a stop command was ignored and a head ran past its limit. We find these the same way you would, by cutting.

Company Inultimate Ventures Pvt Ltd Where Mumbai, India What we make Control software for CO2 laser cutters

Where it is going

What is being built now.

This is work in progress, not a list of what you get. It is here so you can hold us to it. None of it costs extra when it lands: it arrives in the subscription you already have.

Any camera over the bed

The sheet registration works today with the camera fitted to machines we build. Ordinary USB cameras and network cameras are next, so the same one press alignment runs on a machine we did not fit. The hard part, the maths that turns a photograph into machine coordinates, is already done and does not care where the picture came from.

More controller boards

One board family is verified against real machines today, and the download page names them. The settings maps for the wider family are written and waiting on hardware to test against, because a controller map that has never met a machine is a guess. Every board that passes is another shop that can run this.

Send from your design program

A plug-in for CorelDRAW and Illustrator so the artwork on your screen reaches the bench without an export step in between.

Material settings you can pass on

Take the speed and power you worked out for a material to another machine, or hand it to somebody else, as a file rather than a photo of a notebook.

Galvo and fibre marking

A different kind of machine and a different protocol underneath. Early work, and honestly the furthest away of anything here.
