Sculpfun Laser Cutters and Engravers
Sculpfun is a brand of affordable laser engraver worth considering if you need a larger workspace. The basic version is 410 x 420 mm, but there is an optional extension kit that allows you to go the extra mile for really large DIY projects: up to 950 x 410 mm. The output power of the diode laser is 5-10W, and the engraving accuracy is 0.01 mm. This makes it suitable for cutting and engraving a variety of materials, including acrylic up to 10mm thick and wood up to 15mm thick.
The simple sturdy metal frame can be assembled in half an hour and can be further modified later. The laser has to be manually adjusted with a screw based on the distance to the workpiece, and the machine has no end stops, but one of Sculpfun's secret gems is the tick marks on the X and Y axes. This way you can size your model correctly and align objects correctly. Sculpfun also includes a steel base for the laser engraver to protect your table from laser damage.

The base version starts out with 410 x 420 mm, but there is an optional expansion set to go ham on large DIY projects. The simple and solid metal frame can easily be assembled within half an hour and is open to further modding down the road.it's a perfect choice for anyone who is starting out in the world of maker culture in general, or laser engraving and cutting specifically.
Sculpfun S9 VS Sculpfun S10
Sculpfun is a relatively new brand in this laser engraving machine space, and the product is very sturdy and well designed.
With the new S10 model, Sculpfun has set a new benchmark for the market: an engraving machine with 10W optical power and a built-in air assist system. Advanced high speed air assist and 10W high density laser technology to cut high density wood at speeds up to 1,000kph (800m/h). If you have a Sculpfun S9 machine, you can buy the air assist upgrade kit, no need to buy the full S10 machine, their laser mods are the same.
The S10 retains the same Y-axis expandable design as the S9, but you can purchase an S10 expansion kit to expand the engraving area to 400X950mm. This can help you better handle large-area engraving or cutting jobs.
The S10 motherboard uses a 32-bit chip, which has a faster operation speed. It also retains the Z-axis and limit switch functions, which is convenient for everyone to upgrade the engraving machine.
In any case, given the small price difference, I recommend the newer S9 model, or if you want the best, we recommend the Sculpfun for its great value for money. Its price is lower in the case of the same function.
