Whether you're a bricks and mortar store, a digital native or a company that provides goods and services behind the scenes; we have witnessed a real surge in personalisation through these recent years.

A rotary device is the perfect accessory to assist with marking curved surfaces such as rings and bracelets; not just the outside circumference, but inside too. The rotary holds the part into position within its claws and then rotates the part underneath the laser beam to mark it in a consistent motion to ensure the desired mark is achieved. The maximum diameter for the rotary device is 65mm.
The bed of the create. is also a tooling plate that the rotary is fixed onto. Therefore, if you need room for a bigger part inside your laser, the rotary can simply and easily be removed to accommodate this and make more space.
A tablet PC is also included within the package. It arrives preloaded with Lightburn™ software which is great for layout refinement and editing your artwork before it is marked onto your product. Lightburn™ allows you to easily import your artwork in many common vector and image formats, such as AI, PDF, SVG, DXF, PLT, PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP. You can easily arrange, edit and create new vectors within the editor too.
The software is super versatile where you can apply settings changes to power, speed, number of passes, cut order, brightness and contrast and more which allows you to get super creative, designing and developing your own personalised finishes, making them unique to you.

As well as your create. laser, your package also includes a small, compact extractor which takes away any fumes when laser engraving using HEPA filters.

The positioning camera allows for clever accuracy when aligning and setting up your products for marking. The camera sits overhead and allows you to see a real-time visual of your product and what you're going to mark; making for efficient set-up and positioning whilst simultaneously giving reassurance on high precision accuracy too.
