FAQs
What is the difference between the 2.5W and 6W versions?
Both are the same D2 machine with the same work area, accuracy, speed, and software support. Only the laser module power differs. The 6W option is the better pick if you want faster, deeper engraving on a wider range of materials.
Which software does it work with?
LightBurn on Windows and macOS, LaserGRBL on Windows, and a companion mobile app. LaserGRBL is free. LightBurn is paid software sold separately by its developer.
Can it engrave metal?
The listing supports painted metal and stainless steel. Bare stainless steel usually needs a laser marking spray or coating with a diode laser, and bare reflective metals like polished aluminum, copper, or brass are generally not suitable.
Does it cut materials?
This listing lists engraving specs only. No cutting depth or thickness is specified, so please treat it as an engraver.
Why does my machine show an alarm on first power-on?
Check that the protective tape on the limit switch has been removed. This is a one-time step.
