MakeBlock Laserbox Pro CO2 Laser Cutter & Engraver
Specially designed for education and creation, Laserbox re-imagines and redefines laser operating performance by the use of a high-resolution ultra-wide-angle camera together with an AI visual algorithm. The machine can auto-identify any official material and then set up the cutting-engraving parameters accordingly. Being a revolutionary laser machine defining operation through hand-drawing, Laserbox makes laser creation easy and fun!
Features
Bring sketches to Life
Featuring the AI visual algorithm, Laserbox can follow the pattern, drawn on the piece of material and program the laser pathway automatically. No operating software required, just cut or engrave at the click of a button!
Material Recognition
Laserbox can process dozens of different materials, including paper, corrugated paper, wood, acrylic, cloth, leather, base plate, ABS-based colour board, PET, rubber, glass fibre, plastic, corian, and etc.
Visual operation, cut or engrave where you want
5 MP ultra-wide-angle camera
With a built-in 5 MP ultra-wide-angle camera, Laserbox shows you a preview of your design on the material. Insert your design with the software and position it with your mouse or finger exactly where you want.
Image Extraction
Laserbox can extract the image on any object’s surface for further creation. Just use the Marquee Tool to select the image you like, then use it to make your own design.
Smart Path Planning
Laserbox software can plan the optimal cutting and engraving pathway for each project. Before cutting, Laserbox allows you to preview which paths it has plotted.
Check Progress In Real Time
Laserbox’s software interface shows the status of your project in real time, as well as the remaining time of the current job.
Personalised design, save time for creativity
Say goodbye to complicated focusing procedures, no need to adjust the laser head manually. Laserbox has three easy auto focus modes achieving optimal focus.You can also use Laserbox’s software to set up a parameter library for commonly used materials. The next time you use the same material, you can auto-select the appropriate parameters for cutting or engraving.
Three auto focus modes
- Material Recognition Auto focus
- Material Set-up Auto focus
- Visual Auto focus
Custom parameters
- Custom Power
- Custom Speed
- Custom Number of Passes
Three image processing filters
