WeCreat Lumos Ultra UV MOPA Dual

What the WeCreat Lumos Ultra UV MOPA Dual can make

The WeCreat Lumos Ultra UV MOPA Dual is an infrared laser engraver: its 1064 nm beam marks metals and plastics that blue diode lasers cannot, for jewellery, tools, tags and electronics.

It has a rated laser power of 6 W, a work area of 210 × 210 mm (8.3 × 8.3 in) and a top engraving speed of 16,000 mm/s.

The brand states that it cuts up to 3 mm of wood or plywood; thicker material takes several passes, and results depend on the material and air assist.

It works with a camera for positioning designs on the material, autofocus, support for a rotary attachment to engrave tumblers and other round objects, air assist for cleaner cuts and LightBurn software.

In the United States the WeCreat Lumos Ultra UV MOPA Dual sells for $4,199, above the median of $1,299 across 10 infrared laser engravers with a US price, among the premium models.
