Or drop files into each operation type:
Note: You can also drag files onto the workspace canvas or use the sidebar + buttons. Because Protel extensions are also recognized they are assigned their correct operation automatically on drag'n'drop.
EasyTrace5000 is a CAM tool for PCB fabrication.
It's 100% web-based, client-side, open-source, and free to use.
Select your PCB manufacturing workflow
Select your laser type. The same PCB files are used — only the output format changes.
All operations via laser — copper ablation, drilling, clearing, and board cutout.
Select UVLaser for isolation and clearing. CNC G-code for drilling and board cutout.
LockedDiode lasers / G-code lasers: If your laser uses standard G-code (e.g. GRBL-LPC, Marlin), use the CNC pipeline with a laser-compatible post-processor. The laser pipeline outputs vector/raster files for standalone laser software (LightBurn, RDWorks, LaserGRBL).

This project is free and open-source. Your support helps cover development time, hosting costs, and the test hardware needed to build the upcoming Laser pipeline
Gain visibility with your logo on the welcome screen, documentation, and repository. We are also actively seeking hardware partnerships for testing the upcoming Laser pipeline.
Individual contributions directly fund the project's infrastructure and development time. Any amount helps keep the lights on.
Add Gerber, Excellon, or SVG files to operation categories
Configure origin, rotation, and machine settings
Select a file, set tool parameters, click "Generate Offsets"
Generate preview, then use Operations Manager to export G-code
The interface is divided into zones. Press F6 to cycle focus between them:
Note: Use the Skip Link (Tab on load) to jump to Canvas.
Check to include. Drag to reorder processing sequence.
PNG mode: Only Isolation and Clearing operations are rasterized. Drill and Cutout operations will be exported as a separate SVG file with vector strokes.
Colors map to power/speed layers in your laser software.
