Every X1 starts with a 55W CO₂ head and a 20W diode laser built into the galvo head. xTool confirms support for 30W Fiber, 60W MOPA, and 5W UV upgrades. The provisional UV and MOPA paths below reflect the package information currently available; final retail names, inclusions, availability, and prices remain TBD.

The bundle rule

Buy the creative lanes you will use. Leave the rest as an upgrade path.

X1 becomes compelling when one deliberate package replaces real equipment sprawl. It becomes expensive clutter if a buyer pays for modules that never earn a place in the work.

Build X1 around your work

One foundation. Three supported upgrade paths.

Every X1 begins with CO₂ cutting range and built-in diode engraving. xTool confirms Laser Swap support for 30W Fiber, 60W MOPA, and 5W UV; final retail packages and prices are still to come.

From modules to packages

The package picture so far

UV and MOPA show two specialist directions.

The package information available today points to these two configurations. Final retail names, inclusions, availability, and pricing are still TBD.

Bundle 1 / UV · name TBDPrice: TBD

5W

UV galvanometer laser source

Consider this path when UV is the specialist capability you want X1 to add next.

Bundle 2 / MOPA · name TBDPrice: TBD

60W

MOPA galvanometer laser source

Consider this path when MOPA metal-detail work is the specialist capability you want beside CO₂ and diode.

Included-accessory details

The current package information lists the same supporting equipment with both configurations.
  • Material feeding accessories
  • Mobile stand
  • Honeycomb platform

Built to keep growing

Add a creative lane, not another full-size machine.

xTool confirms 30W Fiber, 60W MOPA, and 5W UV support. The final package matrix will tell buyers which modules and accessories are available together—and what each complete setup costs.

xTool confirms the three Laser Swap upgrade families. The provisional UV and MOPA paths shown here reflect the package information currently available; final names, inclusions, availability, and prices remain TBD until xTool publishes the retail matrix.

Start with the platform. Then map the package to the work.

The first card shows what every X1 brings to the workshop. The next two preserve the UV and MOPA package information we have today while the final retail matrix, Fiber path, and prices are still being confirmed.

The platform foundation

55W CO₂ plus a built-in 20W diode path

X1 brings two laser paths together from the start: a 55W CO₂ head for the broader CO₂ workload and a 20W diode laser built into the galvo head for high-speed engraving.

Best early fit

Makers who want cutting and engraving range in one adaptable center before choosing a more specialized expansion source.

Put it beside

Compare first with P2/P2S for an established 55W desktop CO₂ path and P3 when production-scale CO₂ work is the priority.

Bundle 1 / UV · name TBD

Creators who want UV to be the next specialist lane inside the wider X1 platform.

Put it beside

Price the UV expansion against a dedicated UV station, then count the workshop space and workflow handoffs each setup requires.

Bundle 2 / MOPA · name TBD

Add the 60W MOPA galvanometer source

The package information currently available describes a MOPA configuration that adds a 60W MOPA galvanometer source. Our expected test configuration follows this laser path, but it does not establish the final retail bundle.

Best early fit

Mixed-material shops that want a MOPA metal-detail lane beside X1’s CO₂ and diode range without adding another full chassis.

Put it beside

Compare directly with F2/F2 Ultra for a focused metal-and-detail station, then count the CO₂ machine and workshop space needed beside it.

Put the power in context

See where each X1 laser sits.

Choose the laser source you are evaluating. The comparison stays inside that laser family so a 5W UV source is never treated as weaker than a 55W CO₂ source simply because the number is smaller.

Power is the opening fact—not the final verdict.

Rated watts do not tell you the work area, beam behavior, motion speed, cooling, cameras, focusing, material handling, software, or complete workflow. Use these bars to find the right machines to compare next.

Every X1 · CO₂ foundation

55W puts X1 beside several established desktop CO₂ machines.

X1 matches the published CO₂ output of P2/P2S, Gweike Cloud Pro II, and OMTech Polar Lite. P3 moves up to 80W for a more production-focused lane, while Glowforge Pro sits at 45W. The useful next comparison is work area, motion speed, material handling, software, cooling, and complete price.

Start with the job, then choose the package

The same X1 package can be sensible for one shop and wasteful for another. These four lanes expose the difference.

01

Wood, acrylic, signs, and larger CO₂ projects

Does the core X1 package cover the size, power, handling, and repeat work your catalog needs?

02

Metal personalization and fine-detail products

Does the MOPA path deliver the quality, color control, placement, and repeatability that justify using X1 as the center?

03

A catalog that changes across materials

Will modules remove enough equipment, setup, and software handoffs to protect the space they promise to save?

04

Production where two jobs must run at once

Can one modular center keep up, or would consolidation create a throughput and downtime bottleneck?

Price is one line. Complete cost is the decision.

MSRP, launch price, currency, and complete setup are still TBD. When xTool publishes the retail numbers, use all six parts below: a low machine price can hide an expensive setup, while a higher package price may include enough capability to replace equipment you would otherwise buy separately.

01

Retail package

Machine, included sources, included modules, warranty, service, and launch offer.

02

Required expansion

The modules needed for your actual work—not every module shown in the platform story.

03

Workshop setup

Ventilation, utilities, clearances, fixtures, conveyors, filtration, storage, and handling.

04

Operating cost

Consumables, maintenance, replacement parts, support time, and failed-work allowance.

05

Equipment displaced

Subtract only the machines and handoffs X1 can realistically replace in your shop.

06

Throughput and risk

Count parallel capacity, changeover time, and the cost of one platform becoming a single point of failure.

What to look for on launch day

Match each bundle to the work, the space, and the machines it could replace.

When pricing and final specifications arrive, compare each bundle’s laser paths, included accessories, required extras, total setup cost, and the specialist machine that would otherwise earn that workshop space.
