BOXFORD

Lightburn & integrated camera included as standard

We ’ re excited to announce that the Boxford BGL range of C02 laser cutters and engravers will now be supplied with Lightburn laser software as standard ! Our machines will also be fitted with a fully integrated 4K camera , which can be used for artwork positioning , image tracing and live monitoring .
Our aim is always to make our machines as user friendly as possible , allowing customers to move from design to manufacture in the fewest possible steps . Lightburn laser software includes a whole host of useful tools to make this achievable .
Some of these features include an art library , allowing users to quickly load shapes or designs which they regularly use ; print and cut options , making the process of lining up laser cutting operations with pre-printed materials quick and easy to do and variable text functions , giving customers the option to sync up Lightburn with a list of data to engrave .
Using Lightburn also means that Boxford BGL models are fully compatible with Windows , Mac and Linux operating systems .

The introduction of an integrated camera makes Boxford laser systems even more powerful . A design can be engraved in position on an object in seconds , using a few simple steps . This reduces the need to produce jigs or line up work by eye , which can be extremely useful when engraving a wide variety of items of different shapes and sizes .

It is also possible to capture an image of an object or hand drawing on the laser bed and trace the outline , in order to produce on-screen vector graphics which can be laser cut and engraved .
When the door is closed , the camera gives you a view of the laser bed , to allow you to monitor the progress of your work on-screen .
Boxford ’ s BGL range of lasers are available in a range of power and bed size options to suit your application or size of work space . We deliver machines using our own transport , as well providing a full installation and calibration service on the day of delivery . It is also possible to purchase additional training , where our engineers will walk you through software and machine operation , as well as providing maintenance tips , to help keep your machine in excellent condition .
