2L inc's PRO Engraving Software Program with added Photograph Importing Features is now available. 2L inc. has announced that the PRO CAD/CAM Engraving Software Program now imports bitmap files or photographs and converts them into lines which can be engraved. All three versions of the PRO Engraving Software now incorporate this bitmap importing and editing feature: PRO 1 for standard 3 axis cnc machines, PRO 2 for rotary (4) axis cnc milling machines and multi-axis lathes, and PRO 3 which allows engraving 2D Data Matrix Barcodes on 3 or 4 axis cnc machines. The bitmap importing and editing feature allows the user to import JPG, BMP and GIF bitmap images and convert them into lines which can be engraved. The amount of detail that is converted into lines is easily controlled and the imported lines can be edited to provide for the exact output desired. Other items can be engraved along with the imported photos including incremental serial numbers, text, lines, shapes, and imported DXF files. The PRO 1, 2, and 3 Engraving Software Programs are full featured, simple to use drawing programs that produce standard G-code nc files that are compatible with virtually any cnc controller.
