  • Got my Polar 350 OMTech laser in February. I followed all the instructions I could find very slowly and carefully and it has worked perfectly and still does. My camera was the hardest but I got it very close to perfect. It was working until today when the area covered came up as a square in Lightburn instead of the bed size? The picture shows on th...

  • I am attempting to create an image that has a filled in area, with unfilled circles. I attempted to use “line” on the circles, but it doesn’t recognize them and fills the areas in anyways. Suggestions?

  • When I import a .png file it looks fine in the software. But when engraving, the bottom of the image is a little compressed. It helps to put a point under it, so the design is not the lowest point, but isn’t there a better solution?

  • I am attempting to use variable text with a csv file. I have a 3 x 3 array to fill with names from one column. I have advance by set to 1. The software is stuck on the first cell of the excel and isn’t advancing to the next name so my 3 x 3 array has the same name for all 9. Any assistance welcomed.

  • Laser reduced graphene oxide (GO) using direct writing technology has the advantages of being highly flexible, mask free and chemical-free, promising the development of miniaturized energy storage devices. However, laser reduction of GO is usually accompanied by demineralization (a violent deoxidation reaction), resulting in the reduced graphene ox...

  • I just got the xtools d1 pro 40w kit and I can’t figure out good offset settings for the laser offset. It seems like no matter what I set it to it’s off, and isn’t consistent. The default setting is x-16mm,y0, but it should be something like x0mm,y-26mm. I set it to that, but it’s still offsetting something around x-10. I&rs...

  • When I hit “home” the laser moves all the way left then up to the upper most corner and when it gets to the top it still wants to go further and the belts keep turning for about 5 seconds. I’m afraid this will damage the motors or belts. I don’t know if this is a software or hardware issue.
