ACMER P2 Laser Engraver

I'm currently in process of working with and getting to know the P2 a bit better, and running it through various projects and tests.

I really can't justify doing a full review until after I have a good number of hours under the belt with it but I will point out a few of these observations so far. unpackaging and the few minutes of minor assembly went very fast and without any issues.

It was packaged very well, and the instructions although basic are pretty straightforward and nicely, right to the point. I was up and running with it in about 10 minutes and half of that was me stopping for a sip of coffee.

The machine is put together very well with quality components as far as I can tell and only sometime will determine how well things are going to hold up. it's looking really good though folks.

I'm going to make some suggestions though that I will elaborate further on in a engineering article devoted specifically to some of these things, but for someone reading this right at the moment I want to stress checking and double checking the heights of your possible hold downs that you use for the materials.

I've noticed this with other similar lasers on the market, the housing at the base of the head in relation to the focal points for these lasers leaves only about 2 mm or less between the bottom of that housing and the material which when the machine is working around the perimeters of your material it's easy to catch on and cause a jam or move the material which of course is a unwanted scenario. They really need to think about raising the base of that housing up another couple of millimeters and that should solve just about any of those issues. Other lasers on the market don't even have this cowl at all so you don't have a whole lot of worries about it running into your hold downs.

The logic I suppose behind these cowls is to minimize the amount of laser exposure and to some degree minimize particulate and smoke movement. it's a trade-off necessary for better operation and most definitely decreasing the possibility of a bad cutting or etching operation ruining material because of that.

Additionally, and it is very minor, but I did notice when using the spring-loaded adjustment lever for setting the focal point of the laser, if you are not careful there is just enough play in this locking system to allow a little bit of an angle if you apply too much pressure on the laser head. I'm not really sure how much of a difference this is going to make but honestly I think this could be solved with a second spring loaded adjustment foot on the left hand side to make sure that the head remains even.

Ideal for those who have high demands on cutting ability of the laser machine.(The higher the laser output power, the stronger the cutting ability.)
  • Ultra High Precision & Speed: ACMER P2 laser engraving machine adopts industrial guide rails instead of wheels, which improves the stability by 20% compared with other machines, and ensures 0.01mm high motion precision and 0.001mm repeatable positioning accuracy. P2 33W laser head adopts 0.08mm compressed spot technology to realize detailed and realistic engraving images. Maximum engraving speed up to 30000mm/min.
  • All-around Safety Protection: ACMER P2 is equipped with a safety lock, which needs to be turned on before operation, and an emergency stop button, which can stop the machine at any time in case of an accident. When the laser engraving machine is moved or tilted 15° during processing, it will stop automatically, which makes the operation safer. The engraving machine has a built-in flame sensor, which can detect flame and raise alarm in time, so you can carry out cutting work with peace of mind.
  • Strong Structure & Super Easy Installation: ACMER P2 laser engraving machine adopts all-metal structural frame, which is more stable and durable. The whole machine adopts modular design with 95% pre-assembled delivery, which is super simple and can be installed in 1 minute. In addition, we provide 12 months warranty for the engraving machine. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
  • Wide Compatibility & Use: 420*400mm large engraving area, provides plenty of space for your creativity to play. You can cut or engrave wood, bamboo, paper, acrylic, leather, PCB board, anodized aluminum, metal and hundreds of other materials. Widely compatible with professional engraving software such as LaserGRBL (free) and LightBurn (paid), it supports Windows, MacOS (LightBurn) and supports mobile applications. You can transfer data via Wi-Fi, USB cable, or TF card, allowing offline use.
