LaserFoundry

Laser cutting and engraving. Free.

LaserFoundry lays out your artwork, sets speed and power for each colour, and shows the job in a simulator before it goes to your laser.

Free, with nothing to install: it runs in your browser at stitchwright.github.io/laserfoundry. The AI features need you to be signed in with a free Foundry Account.

From artwork to a cut

Layout

Your artwork, ready to cut

Open your design, arrange it on the bed, and choose what is cut, scored or engraved.

Settings

Speed and power by colour

Give each colour its own speed, power and passes, so one file does the whole job.

Check first

See the job before it runs

The simulator traces the laser's path, so mistakes show up before they cost material.
