Some options are only for Galvo controllers and the F1 has a GRBL one. Maybe you can add the sliding table as a Y rotary, the do the (one-time) mat to translate a rotary move to a linear one.
Hello,
I am fairly new in laser engraving field, I have played around with LB and GRBL diode lasers.
I am planning to buy a Galvo MOPA laser and I have a question, if LightBurn supports sliding table.
According to this If lightburn would support moving table · LightBurn I guess it doesn’t
I saw this XTool F1 Sliding table and I thought it would be possible to use the rotary stepper output for extra Y movement for mass production.

Thank you
Hello, is there a function in Lightburn like
" rotate the rotary for xxx steps after every finished Layer "
I could build something to connect a little Z-Lift Table to the machines Rotary.
When i do 3D Coin Engravings then i could set that the rotary moves for lets say 200 steps and this moves my z axis lift table 0.01 mm higher.
So my coin is always in focus.
I think this would be very simple to implement in the Lightburn software.
EXAMPLE

So I know that with lightburn (Galvo) an X axis table is not supported but at the same time when using a rotary you can go outside the confines of the work space to engrave all the way around a mug. So my thought is to use the rotary output to operate the X axis table. I have everything calibrated so that if I tell the rotary to jog 1" it jogs exactly 1" and I am able to jog the entire 24" of stroke that the actuator has available. The issue I am having is that to get it to work I am telling lig…
