EZCAD Laser Marking Software

EZCAD

Definition

EZCAD is a professional laser marking software, which requires the cooperation of a corresponding laser marking machine. The software perfectly supports TrueType fonts, single-line fonts (JSF), dot matrix fonts (DMF), and has flexible text processing, powerful compatibility and image processing functions can meet the needs of different users.

Installation

EZCAD software run on an PC with 900 MHz CPU and 256 MB RAM at least. In general, we recommend the fastest PC available. EZCAD was developed in Microsoft Windows XP and will run in Windows XP and VISTA.

The installation of EZCAD is very easy. Users simply need to copy EZCAD folder that is in the Install CD to hard disk, and then double click the EZCAD.exe under the EZCAD's directory to run the software.

EZCAD requires a software security device sometimes known as a 'dongle'. This device plugs into the USB port on the PC. If there is no dongle or the dongle do not install correctly, a caution will appears and the software will work at demo state. In demo state, we can evaluate the software but we cannot save files and cannot control laser device.

Features

  7. Common types of images are supported. (bmp, jpg, gif, tga, png, tif)
  8. Common vector images are supported. (ai, dxf, dst, plt)
  9. Image processing (Gray Scale, White/Black Transformations).
  10. Powerful hatching functions, such as support round hatch.
  11. More convenient IO operations and more easier to harmonize the auxiliary equipment.
  12. It supports the dynamic focus. (3 axis processing system)
  13. It supports directly the SPI G3 fiber laser and the newest IPG_YLP and IPG_YLPM fiber laser.
  14. An opening language supporting system makes it easy to run the software in various languages platform.
  15. Flexible variable text: changes the text real time while in laser processing. Excel datasheet is supported.
