Please note: - Treat this equipment like a technician would, read the instructions before use, and perform regular maintenance - Get in touch for assistance ## Pricing - **Price:** $7,576.20 (inc GST) — $6,887.45 AUD, exc GST ## Availability & dispatch - In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney). - We can dispatch 1 today; more stock is typically available with a 22–23 day lead time. ## Restrictions This product incorporates a laser system. Before purchasing or using laser equipment (including modules, components, or complete machines such as laser cutters and engravers), please consider the following: - These products are intended for professional, educational, industrial, or supervised workshop environments. - Operators should be appropriately trained and understand laser safety practices, including enclosures, signage, PPE, and safe operating procedures where applicable. A declaration of use will need to be submitted during checkout. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10472:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE10472:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description A professional-grade, desktop-sized ultraviolet laser engraver that brings cold laser-processing technology to the benchtop. Unlike traditional infrared or diode lasers, this system operates at a 355nm wavelength, allowing it to mark and engrave materials that are otherwise transparent to other wavelengths or heat-sensitive without causing thermal damage. ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/wysiwyg/product-pages/CE10472-the-most-versatile-laser.jpg) #### Almost Any Material Makers and prototyping labs often struggle with customising materials like crystal, glass, delicate plastics, and certain ceramics that either crack under heat or fail to react to standard laser wavelengths. Surface engrave and cut through a range of materials that standard machines can - plastics, paper, wood and many more. ### How Does It Have So Much Versatility? The F2 Ultra UV breaks bonds directly at the surface - a process known as "cold engraving" - which results in minimal heat and clean edges, with few marks on everything from silicon to laboratory glassware without the risk of shattering or melting. ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/wysiwyg/product-pages/CE10472-cold-processing.jpg) ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/wysiwyg/product-pages/CE10472-internal-engraving.jpg) ### Make Internal Glass Engravings Engrave glass with professional clarity using the 355nm UV laser, which interacts with clear surfaces that standard lasers simply pass through, enabling stunning 3D subsurface crystal engraving and crisp surface marking. Built as a robust, fully enclosed Galvo system, the F2 Ultra UV prioritises both safety and high-speed throughput. Featuring dual 48MP cameras for precise material alignment and a high-resolution micro-sized UV spot for engraving detail that rivals some semiconductor marking equipment. ### Core Features - **Process heat-sensitive materials without deformation** thanks to "cold processing" technology that minimises the heat-affected zone, making it ideal for marking silicone, ABS, and thin films. - **Achieve museum-grade detail** with an ultra-fine 0.01mm laser spot, allowing for tiny text and intricate patterns that remain legible even on tiny components or jewellery. - **Maximise production throughput** with high-speed Galvo technology capable of speeds up to 15,000 mm/s, significantly reducing the time required for batch-processing custom labels or logos. - **Ensure perfect alignment every time** via the dual 48MP camera system, which provides a high-resolution workspace preview to eliminate guesswork and material waste during setup. - **Experience the reliability of OEM engineering** with a machine designed to work natively with xTool Creative Space (XCS), ensuring consistent firmware updates and a streamlined workflow from design to finished part. ### Technical Specifications | Property | Specification | |---|---| | Laser Type | 5W 355nm UV Laser (Cold Processing) | | Laser Spot Size | 0.02mm × 0.02mm | | Max Processing Speed | 15,000 mm/s | | Working Area (Standard) | 200mm x 200mm | | Working Area (Subsurface) | 70mm x 70mm | | Positioning Accuracy | 0.2mm | | Resolution | 0.001mm (Vector Fitting) | | Max Material Height | 150mm | | Camera System | Dual 48MP Cameras | | Safety Class | Class 4 | | Dimensions | Approximately 273mm x 373mm x 580mm | | Weight | 22.5 kg | | Compatibility | xTool Creative Space (XCS), LightBurn | ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/c/e/ce10472-showcase.jpg)
