Higher ratedRanked #3 in Best Laser Engravers

Atomstack P50 Pro

4.0

$369.99as of Jul 7

The Atomstack P50 Pro features a 20W laser diode module combining four individual diodes, making it one of the most powerful diode lasers available. Reviewers noted its integrated air assist system, support for Lightburn software, and limit switches for consistent positioning. However, the premium power comes at a high cost, and the machine lacks an included enclosure. This makes it ideal for users seeking high-power diode laser capabilities but may not suit those on tight budgets or requiring built-in safety enclosures.

Strengths

— 20W laser diode module combining four individual diodes for high power output
— Integrated air assist system with variable-speed compressors for improved cutting and safety
— Supports Lightburn software and can be controlled via USB or Ethernet

Watch-outs

How they stack up

Atomstack P50 Pro

The Atomstack P50 Pro's 20W diode laser power exceeds that of the xTool D1 Pro and A5 Pro, but it lacks the included safety features and tutorials that make those models more approachable. It also doesn't have the built-in fume extraction or air assist of the xTool P2, and its lack of an enclosure makes it less safe than the xTool P2.

Ortur Laser Engraver 4

The Ortur Laser Engraver 4 surpasses the xTool D1 Pro in power with its 20W modular laser and high-speed operation, but it requires more complex setup and lacks the included tutorials and ease of assembly that the D1 Pro provides. It also doesn't match the xTool P2's built-in fume extraction or the Atomstack P50 Pro's air assist system.
