MONOR 1490
Professional CO2 Laser | 130 W
A powerful CO2 laser with a large 1400 x 900 mm working area for precise cutting and engraving of wood, acrylic, leather, rubber, paper and other non-metal materials. The MONOR 1490 is built for workshops, sign and advertising production, decoration and small-batch runs, where output, precision and reliable day-to-day operation matter most.
No-obligation inquiry. Feel free to ask about machine suitability, materials or shipping costs.
Large format, a genuine 130 W of power, and equipment built for production
Genuine 130 W power
A CO2 tube with stable operating power for both cutting and detailed engraving.
1400 x 900 mm
A large working area for panels, sign-making parts and bigger formats.
Autofocus + Z-axis
Automatic focusing and an electric table lift of up to 300 mm.
Dual exhaust system
Two fans with an adjustable run-on time keep the working area clear.
Servo drives
Toothed-belt servo motors and enclosed rails for precise, smooth movement.
RUIDA
Proven control with support for RDWorks, LightBurn, USB and LAN.
Who is this machine for
The MONOR 1490 suits craft workshops, sign and advertising makers, decoration and marking businesses, and smaller production operations. Its large working area handles bigger materials, and the 130 W power delivers higher cutting speeds on thicker non-metal materials.
- cutting and engraving wood, MDF, plywood, acrylic, leather, rubber and paper,
- producing sign elements, decorations, templates, packaging and batch parts,
- engraving glass, stone and selected coated materials,
- processing large formats thanks to the 1400 x 900 mm working area and pass-through slot.

RUIDA and intuitive control
The controller lets you prepare jobs, repeat orders, save projects, and connect via USB, LAN or a USB flash drive.

Autofocus and an adjustable Z-table
Autofocus sets the correct lens height, and the electrically adjustable table lets you work with taller materials too.

Knife blade and honeycomb bed
The knife blade bed is suited to clean cutting, while the honeycomb bed works best for smaller parts and finer materials. The operator can choose the base according to the job.

Electronically controlled air assist
The air jet supports a cleaner cut, reduces material scorching, and protects the optics from debris.

Dual exhaust with run-on
Both fans start with the job and can keep running briefly after it finishes, clearing the working area of smoke.

Servo drives and enclosed rails
Toothed-belt servo motors and enclosed linear rails support precise, smooth and quieter movement, even with fast changes in direction.

You're not buying a machine without support
2-year warranty
We provide a standard 2-year warranty on the machine and help resolve technical questions even after handover.
Technical support
For questions about setup, materials or operation, fast technical support is available to you.
Step-by-step video guides
Instructional videos guide the operator from unboxing and installation through to operation, maintenance and the first jobs.
Online or in-person training
As needed, we arrange individual training - online, in person at pickup, or directly on site.
A machine that arrives ready to work
The MONOR 1490 is more than just a large machine in a box. What matters is that the customer knows exactly what they're buying, how to prepare the space, how to handle ventilation, and what real-world power output to expect in production.
Ready for first power-on
Before handover, we inspect, set up and prepare the machine for its first tests and for production.
Questions before you order
You can also use the "I'm interested" form to ask about materials, shipping, installation or whether the machine is right for you.
Equipment for everyday work
RUIDA, LightBurn, the CW5200 chiller, air assist, dual exhaust and work beds form a practical foundation for the workshop.
Why do we distinguish between operating power and peak power?
An example with the MONOR 1490: the EFR tube can have an initial peak power of around 148 W, which naturally settles to a genuine 130 W. That's why we quote the operating power you can actually rely on for everyday cutting and engraving.

Details & priceWhat customers ask us before buying
What materials can I cut and engrave?
Most commonly wood, MDF, plywood, plexiglass/acrylic, paper, leather, textile and rubber. Glass and marble are suitable for engraving. For a specific material, we can recommend suitable settings and a testing procedure.
Is it safe to cut PVC or vinyl?
No. We do not recommend cutting PVC, vinyl or other chlorine-containing materials on a CO2 laser. Processing them releases harmful fumes that can damage both your health and the machine itself.
Can the MONOR 1490 engrave metal?
By default, it is not designed for direct metal engraving. It can, however, work with anodized aluminum, remove coating from certain surfaces, or be used with a special marking compound such as Thermark/CerMark. For metal, a fiber laser is otherwise the more suitable choice.
Does the machine support LightBurn?
Yes. The MONOR 1490 uses RUIDA control, so it supports both RDWorks and LightBurn. At handover, we can help with the basic setup of your workflow.
Is training included?
Yes. Detailed video guides are available, along with individual training as needed - online, in person at pickup, or directly on site.
How does delivery work?
Options include personal pickup with training, delivery by road freight depending on the destination, or individual delivery with installation and handover of the machine.
What do I need to prepare before delivery?
You'll need a space for the machine's dimensions of 1980 x 1350 x 980 mm, a standard 230 V power supply, a Windows computer, and a way to vent smoke outside the room.
How often should the optics be cleaned?
It depends on the materials and how intensively the machine is used. When cutting materials that produce a lot of smoke, check the lens and mirrors more often and clean them gently with a suitable microfiber cloth.
Are spare parts and service available?
Yes. We keep common spare parts and service solutions on hand so that any downtime is resolved as quickly as possible.
