Frequently Asked Questions
What are the site and system requirements to operate a Universal Laser System?
Universal Laser Systems (ULS) require a dedicated windows-based computer, fume exhaust or filtration system, suitable electrical power, and a oil-free compressed air source (only if air assist is needed for material processing).
What software can I use to design laser cutting and engraving files?
Most of our customers use CorelDRAW®, Adobe Illustrator®, or AutoCAD®. ULS also offers a Direct File Import option that allows users to directly import certain graphic file formats (PDF/DXF/STL/G-Code).
How much laser power do I need?
Laser power needs depend on your application. We offer laser systems with a power range of 10 to 150 watts. As an example, if you’re only using your laser to cut paper, a 10 watt laser would be suitable. However, if you need to cut 1/2” acrylic, a higher power laser will be needed. Contact us and we can guide you to the appropriate options.
Can I finance the purchase of ULS laser?
Yes. We work with several financing companies for which we can provide a referral. Six month 0% interest financing is also available through PayPal.
Will you offer a trade-in or buy my used laser?
Yes. Depending on the age and condition of your used laser we will extend a trade-in credit towards the purchase of a new machine or offer a cash value for your used machine.
Do you provide support and service?
Yes, we provide on-site service, support, preventive maintenance, and training for ULS lasers. We have a by-the-hour rate for on-site service. Visit our ULS service page to fill out a service request or contact us and we will guide you to an appropriate service option.
