Hardware Considerations

• Match cutter/bit geometry and material allowances (tool diameter, flute length).
• For laser: set appropriate power, speed, and passes for material (wood, acrylic, coated metals).
• For rotary engraving: consider spindle RPM, backlash compensation, and engraving depth relative to tooling.
• Fixturing: tabs, vacuum hold-down, or clamps; add sacrificial layers for through-cuts.

Design Tools: Features WYSIWYG text composition with over 100 engraving-specific fonts and a library of 5,000+ clipart pieces. CADlink EngraveLab Expert 7.1 rev.1 Build 8

• Design & Layout Tools:

  The trade-offs? No variable data from Excel (that came in v8), no SVG import, and no JPEG 2000 support. You must save designs as .elx (EngraveLab 7 native) or export as HPGL, DXF R12, or PLT. The "produce" feature in CADlink EngraveLab Expert 7
