If this post is for a specific brand (e.g., "Exclusive to Thunder Laser" or similar), make sure to swap the generic text for the brand name in the copy above.

For live standalone machine operations, SmartCarve often requires a proprietary USB security dongle plugged directly into the host PC. This ensures only local, physically present operators can deploy laser firing paths, minimizing structural workshop hazards. Pre-Processing Design Workflows

To achieve precise industrial outputs, files must be pre-processed carefully before hitting the laser bed.

| Parameter | Recommended Range | Use case | |-----------|------------------|----------| | | 15–30 (engrave), 70–100 (cut) | Wood: 70% cut, 20% engrave | | Speed (mm/s) | 200–500 (engrave), 10–40 (cut) | Faster = lighter engrave | | Scan mode | Bidirectional (faster), Unidirectional (better edge) | Text = unidirectional | | Pass | 1 for engrave, 2–4 for thick cut | Multiple passes avoid charring | | DPI | 300–600 | 600 for fine detail, 300 for speed |
