Turn your phone into a professional wireless jog pendant for your CNC router or laser cutter. No dedicated hardware remote. No subscription. Just your phone and the AxisForge USB dongle.

WORKS WITH YOUR SOFTWARE

Built-in profiles for the most popular CNC and laser software — ready to go out of the box:

• Carbide Motion
• Universal G-Code Sender (Mac & Windows)
• Easel by Inventables
• Mach3
• OpenBuilds CONTROL
• LightBurn
• Generic GRBL
• Custom Layout — assign any key combination to any button

DESIGNED FOR THE SHOP FLOOR

AxisForge isn't a generic remote app. Every detail is built for real machine use:

• Large, high-contrast jog buttons you can tap confidently with work gloves on
• ARM / DISARM safety system — buttons only send keystrokes when intentionally armed
• Automatic watchdog — if your phone disconnects mid-jog, the dongle stops all movement within 500 ms
• Hold-to-jog mode for continuous movement, or tap mode for precise incremental steps
• 5 increment presets: 0.01 / 0.1 / 1 / 10 / 25 mm
• Feed rate selector: Slow / Med / Fast
• FEED HOLD always reachable — even when disarmed

SIMPLE SETUP

Plug the AxisForge USB dongle into your CNC or laser computer
Open the app — it finds the dongle automatically over Bluetooth
Pick your software profile
Arm and start jogging
The dongle acts as a USB keyboard to your computer — no drivers, no software install, no admin rights required. It just works.

THE DONGLE

The AxisForge wireless dongle is sold separately at thebossfactory.ca and on Etsy. The app is free.
