Point & Shoot line
This feature allows the user to define a shape and position it directly on the machine, using the red pointer, and to transfer this information automatically to the software. .
With the Point and Shoot function, Gravostyle™ enables you to acquire the shape of a complex object and transfer it to the Gravostyle™ composition space in order to use it as a template for your photograph. This means you can be certain of the exact position of the engraving on the object.

Point & Shoot circle
With the circle Point & Shoot, Gravostyle™ enables you to acquire the shape of an object directly and to transfer it to the Gravostyle™ composition space. This construction circle will be used not only for your composition but also to accurately centre this composition on the object. This offers a permanent means of identifying your manufactured objects.

Text in rectangle Point & Shoot
This feature allows the user to define text and its position directly on the machine, using the red pointer, and to transfer this information automatically to the software.

Options

Font editor and point mode
This allows logos to be engraved on a mechanical machine from an image. The image will be vectorized and the vectors reworked if required.
Do you regularly engrave logos using mechanical machines and therefore have to convert images from letterheads, faxes or other media into vectors ready for engraving?
Discover the unrivalled power of the Gravostyle™ Scanner/Vectorisation option. Its capacity to filter marks on a fax or to merge the colours of a logo extracted from a letterhead will facilitate your day-to-day manipulation of logos
Furthermore, the editing tools in the Gravostyle™, point mode will allow you to refine and convert your logos at will, thereby enhancing your creativity.
With the Gravostyle™ point mode, you have powerful tools at your disposal for retouching a logo. Every point can be moved, aligned, projected... Every curve can be transformed to follow the lines of your original logo.

Long plate
Allows you to engrave a job several times on a long plate

2D hollowing
Allows you to hollow out a shape through the automatic creation of optimised hollowing toolpaths.
Once the composition is complete, it is very simple to associate engraving parameters with it - such as the tool, depth, engraving speed - through the clever use of a colour set.

Once you have defined the engraving parameters for your composition, GravoStyle™ automatically calculates the tool trajectories for you. The fillings are specially devised to cover the surface area necessary for the selected tool. The view allows you to display these tool trajectories on-screen. In this way, it is easy to check at a glance that the composition meets the approval of your customers.

Braille
Makes it possible to produce signage that complies with the various standards in force.
