AlgoOS on the 3.5" touchscreen enables creating and importing designs directly on the machine. Use AlgoSketch for hand-drawn art or AlgoType for clean text, then position your file and start engraving in three steps.

• Draw on-screen with AlgoSketch or import SVG/PNG files via Wi‑Fi, USB‑C, or SD card.
• Use on-screen tools to scale, rotate, and place your design precisely.
• Start engraving immediately with the one-touch job control on the touchscreen.
