One of two laser cutters, the Trotec is located in the Innovations Workshop above its fume extractor. Both laser cutters utilize CorelDraw as a 2D sketch manager which is then imported into Trotec's specific cutting software. CorelDraw can be used to create the 2D sketch, however importing a DXF file or PDF into CorelDraw from Solidworks or other CAD packages is preferred due the CAD packages integrated features and functions.
