Prefer drawing by hand? Easily transform your sketches into digital files by using our Smart Trace software. Smart Trace is also perfect for kids or students who love to draw or paint. Inspire them by engraving their work onto hundreds of objects. beamo uses Wi-Fi for quick setup, file transfer, and status monitoring. beamo also connects over Ethernet and via smartphone hotspot. No matter where you are, beamo is always available. Unlock beamo’s 3D potential with the rotary add-on, which allows you to engrave on curved objects like glassware and bottles by spinning the workpiece. This add-on also extends the maximum material height from 45mm to 105mm. This easy-to-setup module opens up a whole new set of creative possibilities. This add-on adjusts the focus according to the thickness of the material, enabling beamo to cut deeper in multiple passes. For example, the autofocus add-on enables beamo to cut 6 – 7mm wood in two passes, whereas normally beamo cuts up to 5mm in 2 passes. Most laser cutters on the market use either CO2 or semiconductor lasers. CO2 lasers cut and engrave at faster speeds, while semiconductor lasers have a longer lifespan and can engrave on stainless steel without coating. So, why not have both? Our hybrid laser module attaches a semiconductor laser to the existing CO2 laser so you can enjoy the benefits of both. This module is currently under development, we will share more information in future updates. beamo has a built-in air assist system that channels air through the laser head directly onto the material to prevent the workpiece from catching fire. While most laser cutters require external cooling, beamo features an integrated water cooling system, making it a truly compact machine. This closed-loop water cooling system circulates throughout the machine, keeping all components at the proper temperature. The ventilation system takes in clean air to circulate around the chamber. beamo comes equipped with a powerful but quiet 340CMH (200CFM) fan and a 4.7″ (12 cm) diameter hose to extract smoke and fumes through a window or vent. The fully enclosed chamber prevents the laser beam from leaking out. Lifting the door during a task sets off a safety sensor that automatically pauses beamo. These safety mechanisms ensure that you’re well protected. ($650 Off!). Hurry, less than 48 hours left! Raised over $400,000.
