In this video I will be engraving on all sorts of metal using the new xtool 1064nm infrared laser. This laser is capable of engraving on copper, steel, aluminum, zinc, titanium, brass and more. You can easily engrave all metals with just a few clicks of a button. This IR laser is extremely powerful for only being 2watts but don't let that fool you. A traditional blue diode laser is only capable of engraving on stainless steel but this new IR laser makes DIY engraving all metals very simple. Watch the full video to see the settings I use and to see all that this laser can do. If you like this video, please give it a thumbs up and hit that Subscribe button for more.
If you'd like to see something engraved or made, leave a comment and let me know.
Thanks For Watching!

Hey everyone, if you’re looking to engrave just about any metal out there, I highly recommend this IR laser from Xtool. I love this thing and I’ll be engraving a lot more with it down the road 👍🏻 I hope you enjoy and have a great rest of the week!

@benstrait333 Год назад

I see they offer a kit with both this module and the blue laser module, what would you use the blue laser for that this one can't do?

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

@@benstrait333 the ir laser won’t work on wood and other materials that the blue diode will.

@jazekerxx7535 Год назад

so as it engraves, does it remove some material? i think this would be very interesting for making youre own PCB's. can you test that?

@dustindavis4156 Год назад

So will this IR module deeply engrave raw aluminum? Or will it engrave deep on powder coated aluminum?

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

I wouldn’t say deep like a fiber laser would do but enough to feel it with your fingernail if that makes sense. I’m sure with numerous passes you could make it deeper but how many I’m not sure. I’ll have to try and see

@jeremyortiz2927 Год назад

Ooof. IR lasers. I was partially blinded in my left eye by an aircraft equipped with an IR laser jammer when I was stationed at Offutt AFB in 2001. It only took an instant and was permanent. Even though your device and the jammer are vastly different in power and frequency, I don't think I'll ever own a laser engraving system despite how cool it works. Excellent video demonstration. 👍

@Pulame 9 месяцев назад

Hello, I have a question for you. I have an Xtool F1, unfortunately attempts to engrave on stainless steel are poor. The color of the graphics is red-yellow, I tried changing the laser power, dpi, speed and it's still bad. Your graphics look very good, there is a clear contrast. When engraving text, it's OK, the letters are dark, but the photos of faces come out bright and practically invisible. Can you help me and tell me how to set parameters in the program? I have Xtool and Lightburn. Thank you in advance for your answer.

@chrissmith841 Год назад

Is Xtool the only company that does the IR module? or are there any cheaper alternatives? Unfortunately xtool is out of my price range atm Thanks :)

how do you get your images so perfectly on the circles like a coin or washer. I really struggle with this problem

Make a template. Secure paper or card to bed, cut out and remove the circle. Then place coin in exact location, best with some double stick tape. There ya go!

@alejandro639 7 месяцев назад

I just saw the video again carefully and saw you used the 20 W :) You often mentioned using full power. Do you think the 10 W would be enough to get similar results to yours on stainless steel ? I'm on the verge of buying an Xtool D1 Pro with the IR Laser, I simply don't know if the 10 W is enough. Of course, I'm as afraid of spending too much money asmuch as I am of falling short.

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

No, use the same program whether it’s Lasergrbl or lightburn. You’ll just need to fine tune your power and speed settings based on the material you’re engraving.

@zero00044 Год назад

Anybody know if these work on non xtool machines? Most laser modules are, well, modular and universal between machines ad long as they have the same voltage. I have an ortur laser master 2 pro and would love to get this. Since my other option for metal is a $7,000 fiber laser. I know ortur is supposed to be coming out with their own infrared module eventually, but not even an estimate on a release date. I've lost a few potential clients for my small business, that own their own larger business, because I can't do metal at the moment. Lol

@elasticmachinery Год назад

This is my question too. This would be nice to know. I know the xtool rotary machine is compatible with other brands.

xtool sends out so many modules for free ..... how do i get one for my d1 20w pro system ?

@arthurtotherow8208 9 месяцев назад

how did you get the laser to stay on and in one place to manually focus it?

@ainttakenanyshit 2 месяца назад

The only laser you will see is the "positioning" laser, and the IR laser that does all the work is "invisible". To check the MAIN laser IR focus, go to "MOVE", set the laser power for ~ 20 %, hit "FIRE LASER" for just a BRIEF moment, check the spot diameter and the height of the laser at that test. Repeat for different focus heights. This will engrave a spot with the MAIN IR laser and the visible laser is just for alignment and its focus will change with height also. Rinse and repeat....

@mythic_girl7191 Год назад

I bought the xtool m1 last week and it just isn't engraving on my hot wheels. It will engrave everything else that comes with the laser. Any suggestions please?

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

Is that the 10w? What are the hot wheels made of? Is it focused correctly?

@cavinriddle Год назад

So can you not engrave metal with the 20w that comes with the xtool d1 pro?

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

You can but not nearly as well. It also doesn’t work well on copper or aluminum. The IR will engrave all of them just fine

@mittica7373 Год назад

Hello! I have an Xtool like yours, and I would like to cut 925 silver plates with it... Do you know if it is possible...? Thanks in advance. lots of health

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

You won’t be able to cut it, just engrave it. You would need a fiber laser if you wanted to cut it

@g-paj5430 Год назад

Great video! Are you going to contact XTool about the discrepancy with the Focus Lever? I’m curious how XTool handles it. Thanks G-Pa J (aka John Hidalgo)

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

Yes I will mention it to them. In their video they say you may need to adjust it but I didn’t think it would be that much 🤷🏻‍♂️

@vincenthurley9091 6 месяцев назад

I also would like to know what depth it engraves.

@ArtByAdrock 6 месяцев назад

Not real deep. If you want deep engraving you’ll want a high powered fiber laser. I just reviewed the Monport GI60 fiber laser. Take a look at that as it is great for deep engraving metal.

@mustbee-bike994 Год назад

is this the 10w or the 20w pro?

@ArtByAdrock Год назад

The machine was the 20w pro but the new laser is the 2w IR module

@ainttakenanyshit 2 месяца назад

So, you figured the the "focus leg" did not provide optimum focus. How did you arrive at that conclusion? Did you perform a "ramp test", or, did you fire the IR in the "move" command box for a second or two with a nominal power setting - ~25% - then measure the burn spot? IF you though that the visible laser spot you see, (used only for positioning), had/has the same focus spot as the IR laser, then, that may be a wrong assumption. I would fire the IR laser at about 25% power for one second, at different focus heights, and then determine which height gave you the smallest IR beam burn... BUT, tell us ALL how YOU did it............. Thanks....

@KyleHerrera106 Год назад

there is clearly a scratch in the gold ingot that wasn't there the frame before you scratched it with your fingernail. It seems in that particular example that it either doesn't work very well at all on gold or you just need to go deeper. I am curious as to which one it is, what are your thoughts on it?

@Animalwon Год назад
