> ⚠ Please [get in touch](https://core-electronics.com.au/contacts) if you would like to purchase this machine.

This is professional-grade equipment. Please note:

- Parts are heavy and sensitive and will be shipped on a pallet (best safety for transit), this product contains items that require equipment to move/unload
- Treat this equipment like a technician would, read the instructions before use, and perform regular maintenance
- Get in touch for assistance

## Pricing

- **Price:** $13,761.58 (inc GST) — $12,510.53 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- Available with a lead time — expect dispatch between Sep 21 and Sep 21.

## 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=CE10559:1` (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/CE10559:1.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)

## Description

The xTool MetalFab is an industrial-grade, 3-in-1 fibre laser workstation that integrates professional welding, cutting, and surface cleaning into a single, cohesive system ([CNC system available seperately](https://core-electronics.com.au/xtool-metalfab-1200w-all-in-one-bundle.html)). Engineered to bring heavy-duty metal fabrication to the desktop, it utilises a high-performance 1200W fibre laser source to process a wide array of metals with surgical precision.

For makers and engineers, the transition from cutting a part to welding a finished assembly traditionally requires separate machines, complex gas setups, and significant floor space. The MetalFab eliminates these barriers by providing a unified workflow, allowing you to switch between high-speed cutting and precision handheld laser welding without the steep learning curve or equipment overhead of traditional TIG or plasma setups.

Built with a focus on reliability and repeatability, the unit features a high-precision gantry and integrated gas management systems that ensure consistent results on materials like stainless steel, brass, and aluminium. As an official xTool solution, it offers seamless hardware-software integration through xTool Creative Space, providing a "plug-and-play" experience for professional metal fabrication.

*We recommend purchasing [a suitable laser welding helmet](https://core-electronics.com.au/xtool-metalfab-laser-welding-helmet.html) alongside this unit.*

### Core Features

- **Streamline your workshop footprint** by consolidating welding, cutting, and rust removal into one machine, replacing three bulky industrial units with a single desktop-friendly footprint.
- **Reduce production time by up to 80%** compared to traditional TIG welding, thanks to a 1200W fibre source that penetrates metals faster and creates cleaner, stronger joints with minimal heat-affected zones.
- **Maximise material efficiency** and lower project costs using the dual-camera AI system, which allows for precise part nesting and accurate positioning on offcuts or irregular sheets.
- **Weld complex geometries with ease** using the ergonomic handheld laser torch, which provides the flexibility to join components that are too large or intricate for automated gantry welding.
