Our flagship CO2 lasers represent a professional-grade evolution from the P2S foundation:
- P2 Smart Laser: Designed for creative professionals, focusing on intelligent features that simplify complex creation.
- P3 Productivity Laser: Built for small business production, focusing on speed and efficiency to maximize commercial output.
The P3 represents a comprehensive and significant upgrade over the P2S across three core areas: industrial performance, intelligence and automation, and safety. In short, the P3 is engineered for users seeking higher productivity, broader material compatibility, and a more automated and secure workflow. Here are the key differences:
- Industrial Performance & Material Capability:
- Power & Functionality: The P3 features a more powerful 80W CO₂ laser (compared to 55W on the P2S) and offers an optional 5W Infrared (IR) laser module. This dual-laser capability allows the P3 to engrave on metals and plastics, offering "limitless material" possibilities that the P2S cannot handle.
- Size & Speed: The P3's working area is 2.3 times larger than the P2S's, and its maximum speed and acceleration are substantially higher (e.g., 1200mm/s vs. 600mm/s). This translates to greater productivity and the ability to tackle much larger projects.
- Processing Depth (Z-Axis): The P3 fundamentally changes 3D object engraving with a built-in, motorized AutoLift Base that comes standard. This provides a massive 8.66" (220 mm) of vertical space right out of the box. In contrast, the P2S requires an optional, manual Riser Base to achieve its maximum height of 215mm.
- Cooling System: The P3 includes a more advanced built-in Inverter Water Chiller to support its more powerful laser system. It ensures stable, high-performance output from the P3 across varying environmental conditions, powering your productivity all day.
Intelligence & Automation:
- Core Workflow: The P3 introduces the ACS™ Intelligent Workflow, which seamlessly integrates features like Auto-Positioning, Autofocus, an AutoLift Base that automatically adjusts for object height, and an integrated, quick-release Automatic Conveyor Feeder to minimize manual intervention. In contrast, the P2S requires manual height adjustments and conveyor assembly for each use.
- Rotary Engraving: This is one of the most significant upgrades. The P3's Smart RA3 Rotary accessory uses 360° LiDAR Mapping to create a perfect 3D preview before engraving and supports batch processing. The P2S's rotary tool relies on manual measurements, offers no preview, and is limited to single-item processing.
Safety System:
- The P3 takes a major leap forward in safety, achieving a certified Class 1 laser safety rating, while the P2S is a Class 4 device. This top-tier safety is made possible by a multi-layered system. The P3 integrates an Upgraded High-Precision Perception System, which combines 8 Infrared (IR) sensors, a temperature sensor, and side cameras with an advanced vision algorithm; the P2S, by contrast, relies on camera recognition. Furthermore, the P3 comes standard with a built-in CO₂ active fire suppression system, a critical feature that requires the separate purchase of an optional Fire Safety Set on the P2S.
