What Is EZCAD and Why Vectorize for Fiber Lasers?

EZCAD (also written as EZCad or EZCad2) is the industry-standard control software for fiber laser marking machines. It drives the galvo mirrors that steer the laser beam across your workpiece at high speed. EZCAD is used by thousands of businesses for marking metals, plastics, and coated materials with logos, serial numbers, barcodes, and decorative engravings.

While EZCAD has built-in bitmap engraving capability, the results for photographic images are often poor - inconsistent contrast, lost details, and long processing times. Vector-based marking is fundamentally different: instead of scanning back and forth in a raster pattern, the laser follows defined paths, producing crisp lines with consistent depth and excellent contrast on metal surfaces.

Our converter creates SVG files specifically optimized for EZCAD import. The output uses clean paths without excessive nodes that slow down galvo processing. Line weights are appropriate for fiber laser spot sizes, and the detail level can be tuned for your specific marking application - from fine jewelry engraving to larger industrial plates. Import the SVG into EZCAD, set your marking parameters, and produce professional results on the first attempt.

Why Choose Our Tool

Fiber Laser Optimized

Paths are optimized for galvo-based fiber lasers - minimal nodes, efficient path ordering, and appropriate detail for typical fiber spot sizes.

Metal Marking Tuned

Detail levels tuned for metal marking applications. Control line density based on whether you are annealing, engraving, or color marking.

EZCAD-Clean Import

SVG files import into EZCAD without broken paths, import errors, or node count warnings that plague complex vector files.

Pre-Mark Editing

Clean up artwork, remove unwanted elements, and optimize your design before importing into EZCAD.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I import SVG into EZCAD?

In EZCAD, go to File > Import or use the import button on the toolbar. Select your SVG file and it will appear on the canvas. You may need to scale and position it to match your marking area. Some EZCAD versions handle SVG better than others - EZCad2 and EZCAD3 have the best SVG support.

What settings work for photo marking on metal?

For annealing marks on stainless steel, try 20-30W power, 800-1200mm/s speed, and 50kHz frequency. For deep engraving on aluminum, use higher power and lower speed. Always run test marks on scrap material first, as results vary significantly between metals and coatings.

Does this work with EZCAD3?

Yes, our SVG output is compatible with EZCAD3. EZCAD3 actually has improved SVG import capabilities compared to EZCad2, so you may find even cleaner results. The same file works in all EZCAD versions.

What fiber laser power do I need for photo marking?

A 20W fiber laser is sufficient for most photo marking applications on metal. 30W gives you more speed and the ability to engrave harder materials. 50W is needed primarily for deep engraving or cutting. For portrait marking, 20W at moderate speed produces excellent results on anodized aluminum and stainless steel.

How do I prepare a portrait for fiber laser engraving?

Upload a high-contrast portrait with clear facial features and good lighting. Front-facing photos work best. Our AI handles background removal and lineart extraction automatically. For metal marking, use a medium detail level - too much detail can create artifacts at fiber laser spot sizes, while too little loses facial recognition.
