## Pricing

- **Price:** $379.07 (inc GST) — $344.61 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney).

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10466:1` (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/CE10466:1.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

A precision-engineered linear motion accessory designed to dramatically expand the horizontal workspace of the xTool F1 or F2 portable laser. By integrating a motorised rail system that synchronises with the laser's galvo head, it transforms a compact engraving footprint into a high-capacity production platform.

For makers limited by the standard 115mm x 115mm bed, this extension increases the size, allowing for the engraving of longer-form projects, up to 400mm in length. It also eliminates the tedious "one-at-a-time" workflow by enabling automated batch processing, where the laser moves across multiple small items in a single, uninterrupted sequence.

Constructed with a heavy-duty industrial rail and finished with clear metric and imperial scale markings, this official xTool accessory ensures absolute positioning accuracy. It is designed to dock seamlessly with the F1 base, maintaining the machine's high-speed performance while providing a stable, slat-style surface that improves airflow and reduces backside charring during cutting.

### Features

- **Quadruple your creative canvas** with an increased 400mm x 115mm working area, enabling the production of large-scale projects like long desk nameplates and panoramic artwork that simply won't fit on the standard bed.
- **Maximise production efficiency** through automated batch engraving; simply line up your blanks - from business cards to jewellery - and let the software-driven slide move the material for you, reducing manual intervention and labour time.
- **Achieve perfect alignment every time** using the integrated scale rulers and absolute coordinate system, which mirror your digital workspace in xTool Creative Space (XCS) for precise, repeatable results.
- **Secure diverse material shapes** with the included 5-piece clamping kit, designed to hold everything from thin cardstock to irregular objects firmly in place during etching and cutting.
- **Maintain a cleaner workspace** thanks to the professional slat-base design, which provides better ventilation than a flat surface to help prevent smoke staining on the underside of your materials.
- **Enjoy seamless OEM integration** and guaranteed compatibility; as an official xTool accessory, it offers a "plug-and-play" experience with the F1’s firmware and requires no complex third-party drivers.
