Question 1

What files do laser cutters read?

Accepted Answer

Laser cutters, like most CNC machines, read G-code, which describes toolpath positions and speeds. Users typically don't submit G-code directly; instead, they provide design files that operators convert into G-code. DXF files are common for representing 2D shapes in vector format, preserving distances and layers. On Atomm, creators often provide XCS files that use up to three colors to indicate cuts, scores, and engravings.

Question 2

Where Can I Find Free Laser Files On Atomm?

Accepted Answer

We celebrate the spirit of open-source creativity by offering a vast library of free laser files. Any registered user can easily download and modify files shared by our community members. Our platform features thousands of designs contributed by users who share their experiences, tutorials, and inspirations. This collaborative environment is perfect for discovering new ideas and enhancing your projects. Nearly every design can be used for laser cutting. Simply import the files into XCS, set the appropriate parameters, and you're ready to create stunning laser-cut parts.

Question 3

What are laser files?

Accepted Answer

At Atomm, we focus on our XCS file format, which is optimized for laser cutting. XCS files are designed to work seamlessly with xTool Creative Space Software, allowing users to easily set parameters for their projects. Additionally, we also accept popular file formats such as DXF, SVG, AI, and EPS, ensuring flexibility for all your design needs.

Question 4

What makes the free laser files provided by Atomm special?

Accepted Answer

Most XCS files are "ready-to-make," including designs and parameters that you can directly import into XCS for use. Additionally, we support a variety of file formats, including DXF, EPS, SVG, and AI files. This allows users to easily perform laser cutting and engraving.

Question 5

Can I Use the Same Laser File on Different Laser Cutter Machines?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are no restrictions on laser engraving files for specific machine. Laser files are universal; however, the parameters may vary between different machines. You can import the files into XCS and adjust the settings to fit the parameters of your machine before proceeding with the cutting.

Question 6

Can I Use the Same Laser File on Different Laser Cutting Materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can import the files into XCS and adjust the settings to fit the parameters of your materials before proceeding with the cutting.

Question 7

How can I get the correct laser engraving settings?

Accepted Answer

Many laser files shared by Atomm users include machine parameters that you can use directly. If you can't find parameters that match your laser cutter or materials, you can start with a test grid to see the engraving effects of different settings. Based on the desired outcome, you can then determine the appropriate parameters. Alternatively, you can use the EasySet feature to get recommended parameters.

Question 8

What types of laser files can be found on Atomm?

Accepted Answer

You can find a wide variety of laser engraving files at Atomm, including those with different difficulty levels suitable for beginners and professionals. There are files themed around popular holidays (such as Christmas, Halloween, Easter, Valentine's Day, etc.), various occasions (like weddings, birthdays, anniversaries), as well as designs suitable for gifts, home decor, and toys.

Question 9

Where can I find the licenses?

Accepted Answer

Each laser file has a CC license listed below it, where you can see if editing or modifying the file is allowed, as well as whether commercial use is permitted.
