• Compared to the counterpart from other brands, what are the merits of F1? 

The fastest of its kind: 4000 mm/s! Top one in speed: We made it because we adopted the industrial grade galvo system. And we upgraded the algorithm of F1 to calculate the fastest possible path to engrave each and every pattern. For 5 secs, make a metal business card; 1 sec, make a paper card; 6 secs, make a leatherette patch. 

The finest of its kind, exceptional high accuracy: F1 can reach 0.00199mm motion accuracy and 0.000248mm repetition accuracy! Thanks to the photoelectric sensor and hypersensitive magnets inside the F1 galvo system, xTool F1 can quickly respond and correct the position signal to its most accurate placement.

The world's first TRUE dual laser in a machine: xTool F1 combines 10W diode laser and 2W infrared laser inside the machine and can be seamlessly switch automatically during processing.

Safe fully-enclosed machine: The cover of the xTool F1 can be fully enclosed and can block all the smoke and smell, leaving a clean and odorless working environment. The cover can also block laser lights and protect your eyes.

• The galvanometer sounds cool! What's that?

Dual-galvanometer (shortened to galvo) lasers use two precision mirror galvanometers to direct the beam at any angle within the marking window of the laser. This means, the laser beam is quickly moved by the reflection of small mirrors inside the laser module, instead of moving by the whole laser module's movement, which can increase the speed by 10 times. Galvo is often used in industrial batch processing.

• How do the dual lasers work in F1？What materials can it engrave？

xTool F1 has both 10W 455nm blue/diode laser and 2W 1064nm infrared laser to engrave Almost ALL common materials in daily life. Diode lasers perform best on wood, acrylic, leather, slate, glass, ceramic, etc., while infrared lasers can engrave clearly on all-metals(stainless steel, aluminum, gold, silver, iron, platinum) and plastic.

Notice that, it only emits diode laser or infrared laser SOLELY (not at the same time) each time. Set or switch the laser source inside FREExTool creative Space software.

• How deep can xTool F1 cut？

The 10w diode laser cuts 8 mm basswood and 6 mm black acrylic.

• Compared with D1 pro / M1, which one should I choose?

Overall, if you need a portable, easy to get started or boost your productivity on smaller crafts to the next level, F1 is the choice. If you want to engrave larger objects and higher power, D1pro and M1 might be your choice.

Speed:
The speed of F1 can reach 4000mm/s, which is 10 times the speed of the D1 pro/M1. Fast speed can satisfy several needs:
1. Perfect to process crafts in batch, F1 will save you lot of time.
2. Onsite instant customization for you and your customers. Get ready to be surprised by cool fast engraving.

Size:
Portable as F1: It has a weight of 4.6kg, and a size of 179mm*235mm*334mm. With a durable metal handle, it can be easily carried anywhere. You can even remove the plate and do vertical engraving with xTool F1.

On the other hand, D1 pro and M1 are larger and heavier, and are designed to be a home or workspace laser.

Laser Sources: 
F1 has both 10W diode laser and 2W infrared laser to engrave 300+ materials.

D1 pro has 5 to 40W diode lasers (process on wood, acrylic, leather, glass,etc), with a separate laser module accesorry of D1, for engraving on all-metals and acrylic.

M1 has a 10W diode.

Laser Working Area: 
D1 pro has the are of 430*348mm and M1 has 385*300mm, F1 has comparatively smaller working area which is 115*115mm rounded rectangle. However, adding the slide extension of F1, the area can be enlarged to 115*400mm.
