Laser engraver xTool F2 Ultra UV — xTool F2 Ultra UV Laser Engraver

The xTool F2 Ultra UV is a 5W UV laser engraver with a 355 nm wavelength designed for high-precision marking and engraving on UV-reactive and heat-sensitive materials. It offers a standard surface working area of 200 × 200 mm (expandable to 200 × 500 mm with an optional conveyor), internal 3D engraving capability for glass, dual 48 MP cameras for precise alignment, and a maximum operating speed up to 15,000 mm/s. The device targets workshop and small-scale production environments where fine detail, low thermal impact, and reliable throughput are required.

Advantages

Ultra-short-wavelength UV technology produces a spot size under 10 μm, enabling micron-level detail without burning or deforming materials because the laser breaks molecular bonds with photon energy rather than heating. The dual 48 MP camera system improves positioning accuracy to approximately 0.2 mm, and the 3D internal engraving function allows the creation of three-dimensional designs inside glass while leaving external surfaces intact. Built-in software features, a material library and optional conveyor expand versatility and speed for both prototyping and small production runs.

Suitable for

• Engraving jewelry and small metal parts
• Creating 3D images inside glass keepsakes and awards
• Personalization of consumer items (phone cases, mugs, glassware)
• Prototyping and marking of electronic components and plastic parts
• Small-batch production and customized gift items

When it may not be suitable

The F2 Ultra UV is not intended for heavy industrial-scale cutting of very thick materials; its maximum cutting capacity is achieved in multiple passes and is limited compared with high-power CO2 or fiber cutters. It also requires appropriate ventilation and safety procedures for laser operation and may be less suitable where a completely open system or handheld marking is required.

How to use

Set up the xTool F2 Ultra UV on a stable surface, connect power and the included controller, and ensure correct ventilation and safety interlocks. Use xTool Creative Space or xTool Studio to import or create your design, select an appropriate material profile from the EasySet™ library or define custom parameters, and position the workpiece using the camera preview tools. For internal 3D engraving inside glass, select the internal engraving mode and follow the software guidance for focal point and pattern placement. Start a test run on a scrap piece if the material is unfamiliar, then proceed with the full job. Use the emergency stop and enclosed housing features when needed and follow the supplied safety instructions.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended workload: suitable for workshop and small-batch production, not continuous heavy industrial cutting
• Material compatibility: optimal for UV-reactive and heat-sensitive materials and for internal glass engraving
• Ventilation and safety: requires proper extraction and adherence to laser safety rules
• Workspace size: verify dimensions and weight for your bench or workstation
• Software and OS: compatible with Windows and macOS—check integration with your workflow

Usage recommendations

Use the EasySet™ material library to start quickly, run a short test on new materials, and rely on the dual-camera preview for precise alignment. For best results on internal glass engraving, use optically clear glass of suitable thickness and follow the software’s focal and pattern placement guidance. Ensure adequate fume extraction and follow all safety instructions when operating the UV laser.
