WHAT IMAGE2BEAM INCLUDES

Six workflows for different kinds of laser artwork.

Image2Beam does not force every image through the same process. Choose the workflow that matches the source image and the job you are trying to engrave.

01 / AUTO PREP

Auto Prep

Automatic laser-aware image preparation for users who want Image2Beam to handle most of the cleanup and optimization.

02 / MANUAL

Manual Workflow

Hands-on control for users who want to adjust, refine, and prepare the image themselves instead of relying on automatic processing.

03 / VECTOR ARTWORK

Vector Artwork

Preparation for logos, line art, SVG-style artwork, and clean graphic designs where sharp edges and readable shapes matter.

04 / QUICK DEPLOY

Quick Deploy

A fast route for artwork that is already laser-ready and does not need to be processed again before final export.

05 / PHOTO

Photo Workflow

A dedicated workflow for photographs and tonal images, with preparation designed specifically for photo engraving rather than line artwork.

06 / 3D ILLUSION

3D Illusion

Optimizes images for engraving styles that create the visual illusion of 3D depth in the finished result, even though the engraving itself is flat.

B
BEAM Analysis™ — laser-readiness diagnostics BEAM Analysis is a diagnostic technology used to evaluate image readiness and scoring. It is separate from the six main workflows.

WHY IMAGE2BEAM IS FREE

Core laser image preparation should be accessible.

Image2Beam is free to use after email verification. Advanced AI depth-map generation lives in Depth2Beam, where AI generations use credits because each generation has a real processing cost.
