Abstract
In this article, we looked at how to go about creating a CNC pen or drawing machine of your own. Inkscape, which translates graphics and text into g- code format, was utilized as the controller for this project, with the microcontroller serving as the interface between the computer and the language of the CNC machine. The g-code transmits a series of x, y, and z coordinates to the motors; the servo motor controls the pen's movement in response to the Z coordinates; stepper motor 1 controls the rail's horizontal motion; and stepper motor 2 controls the rail's vertical motion in response to the X coordinate. The laser machine employs industrial applications to expedite manufacturing and perform engraving and cutting, resulting in a superior and expertly finished output. The carbon laser beam emitted by the laser engraving machine may be used for engraving, cutting, and shaping a wide variety of materials and end products.
