LightBurn talks directly to your laser, without the use of additional software.

We currently support most Ruida, Trocen, TopWisdom, and GCode based controllers.  Supported GCode controllers,include Grbl, Smoothieware, Grbl-LPC, and Marlin.  Supported Ruida controllers include the RDC6442G/S, RDC6445G, RDC6332G, RDLC-320A, and R5-DSP.  Supported Trocen controllers include the AWC708C, AWC608, and TL-3120.  More controllers will be added soon, so if you don't see yours listed, send us a message - maybe we're already working on it!

If your controller is GCode, Ruida, Trocen, or TopWisdom based, even if it's not listed it might be supported already - Download the free trial and try it for yourself.  If it doesn't work, sometimes it only takes a day or two to make the required changes to support a new board in these existing families.

Please note that LightBurn does not support the stock M2-Nano board in the popular K40 laser. This board does not offer control of power through software - we recommend upgrading the board to take full advantage of LightBurn.
