Overview

Key benefits

The UV source (355 nm) adds cold, very fine processing to the xTool X1. It is the only X1 source that supports inner (3D) engraving of glass and crystal. It connects to the back of the machine via Laser Swap™ and works through the galvo head of the 20W Diode Galvo module.

1

Cold, very fine processing

Short pulses (< 15 ns) and a 355 nm wavelength enable detailed engraving with minimal heat load – according to xTool, on almost any material.

2

Inner 3D glass engraving

The only X1 source that supports inner engraving of glass and crystal – awards, gifts and decorations, even in large formats or in batches.

3

Large working area

Thanks to Hybrid Motion™, the UV source works across the X1's large area – according to xTool, up to 12× more inner engraving volume than a conventional galvo laser.

4

One galvo head

The source works through the galvo head of the 20W Diode Galvo module and the supplied UV/Fiber/MOPA lens. There is no need to change the field lens between sources.

Applications and materials

What the source is designed for

Glass and crystal (surface and inner engraving), plastics and acrylic, wood without burning, leather, stainless steel, PCBs and other heat-sensitive materials.

Results depend on the specific material and settings. You will find recommended parameters in the xTool Studio software.

Compatibility

Which machine it is for

xTool X1

The source is designed exclusively for the xTool X1. It requires an installed 20W Diode Galvo module, which is included in the X1 CO₂ + Diode Galvo version. For the X1 Single CO₂ version, the module must be purchased separately. Only one external source (UV, Fiber or MOPA) is mounted on the back of the X1 at a time.

FAQ

Questions and answers

Can I use the UV source without the 20W Diode Galvo module?

No. The UV source only provides the laser source – the 20W Diode Galvo module must be installed on the xTool X1 to process material. It is included in the X1 CO₂ + Diode Galvo version.

Does the UV source support inner glass engraving?

Yes. According to xTool, the 5W UV is the only X1 source that supports inner engraving of glass and crystal. A positioning piece for inner UV engraving is included for precise placement of the material.

Can I have several sources connected at once?

Only one external galvo source (UV, Fiber or MOPA) is mounted on the back of the X1 at a time. The sources can be swapped as needed.

Do I need to change the lens when switching to another source?

No. The supplied UV/Fiber/MOPA lens supports UV, infrared Fiber/MOPA and blue diode processing.
