txt is what's recognised as Gcode files by LaserPecker App. The extension does not normally matter, as it's just a plain text file, but here. This extension will automatically offset X,Y coordinates, so that the resulting Gcode coordinates are centred to the origin (0,0). The position of target graphics on Inkscape canvas is irrelevant.See engraving_over_200mm_x_140mm.mp4 and engraving_over_200mm_x_140mm.jpg for a demo. Although LaserPecker L1 (not Pro) is capable of engraving a much larger area, from (-100,-70) to (100,70) as I manually tested, it is limited to 100mm x 100mm by the App and the machine to minimise distortion and ensure consistent engraving quality. the absolute coordinates range from (-50,-50) to (50,50). The origin (0,0) is in the centre of the 100mm x 100mm engraving area.This extension warns if the target graphics are larger than 100mm x 100mm, and you should scale it down and try again.Engraving area is limited to 100mm x 100mm in size.(0=off, which makes the Gcode useless, so I disallowed it.) Laser power can be set from 1 (min) to 255 (max).I tested speeds from 0.01 to 70mm/min and they all came out the same on the engraver end. Lowest laser speed is limited to 70mm/min, as this is the lowest effective speed that LaserPecker App allows.Laser head idle movement speed is hard-coded to 3000mm/min, as this is what's used in LaserPecker's official sample Gcode files.

For Linux: ~/.config/inkscape/extensions/.Depending on your Inkscape version and operating system, copy laserpecker.inx and laserpecker.py from extension/0.92 or extension/1.0 directory into.
Inkscape gcode tutorial install#
Install Inkscape v0.92 or v1.x (use v1.x if you can).This extension has been tested with LaserPecker L1, Pro and LP2. LaserPecker is a brand of affordable and portable consumer level laser engravers.įor more details, visit their official English site or Chinese site. This extension allows you to manually set power and speed beyond the App's limitations with Gcode values. The LaserPecker App has a built-in Gcode converter with capability of line-filling, which is pretty easy to use. This is a Gcode generator extension for Inkscape, tailored for LaserPecker L1, Pro and LP2.
