Monport 40w laser, just ordered it today to replace an Ortur Laser Master 2 S2
Other than messing around with LightBurn a little with the Ortur, I’m completely clueless.
Hobbyist, possibly small business if I can figure it out lol

  • Dont have E-Commerce Store, first i would love to get some Experience with my Laser and then maybe i look further into building up my own Shop and getting customers, i think i will have a look what the ppl want to buy on a christmas market first or if the industrie needs still barcodes on metal plates as a example

Pete here from Wanganui :wink:
Looks like the AccTek has a Ruida controller which should be fine, just not sure what the controller is for the VyTek.
I’m assuming you’ve downloaded the trial version? Should be very evident using “Find my Laser” in the setup.
I come from an engineering trade with CNC background and with the CADCAM experience find Lightburn very intuitive to use.
Trust you’ll enjoy using LB as the rest of us do.
