Configure & Save LX2 Processing Parameters

  • Updated

After creating an object on the canvas, click on it to open the Processing Settings panel on the right. Here, you can configure the processing mode and parameters for the object. This guide explains the effects of different processing modes and which object types they are suitable for.

1. Processing Parameter Descriptions

ParameterDescriptionRange / UnitApplicable Mode
Power (%)Laser output during processing.
Higher power → deeper engraving or cutting.
1–100 (Integer)All Modes
Speed (mm/s)Laser movement speed.
Slower speed → deeper engraving.
Line Engraving: 1–300
Fill Engraving: 1–600
Line Cutting: 0.1–300
All Modes
PassesNumber of times the laser repeats the path.
More passes → deeper engraving.
1–10 (Integer)All Modes
Engraving DensityNumber of lines or points per cm.10–300 (Integer)Fill / Image Engraving
Low density (e.g., 10): 10 lines/cm (1 mm spacing).
Faster, suitable for large areas/coarse engraving/shorter processing time.
Low density example
High density (e.g., 100): 100 lines/cm (0.1 mm spacing).
Slower, for fine details/longer processing time.
High density example
OverscanAutomatically enabled for Fill or Image Engraving.AutoFill / Image Engraving
Purpose: When the laser reaches a design edge, it must decelerate before changing direction.
The Laser Module can only accelerate/decelerate within physical speed limits.
Benefit: Overscan adds space for acceleration and deceleration (laser off during this movement), ensuring consistent engraving depth across the entire area.

2. Setting Processing Parameters

2.1 Using Recommended Parameters

(1) Click the "Custom Materials" button in the top-right corner to open the Material Library.

(2) Select your material. The system will automatically configure recommended parameters.

2.2 Creating Custom Parameters

If your material is not in the Material Library:

  • Drag the sliders or enter values directly to set Power, Speed, Passes, etc.
  • Test the parameters and adjust until the desired result is achieved.
