Lasers are an incredible addition to the workshop and they come in all shapes and sizes - so which one is right for you? If you’re interested in upgrading your CNC with a laser, this is the video for you!
We currently offer four diode lasers from ‪@JTechPhotonics‬ , plug-and-play with Onefinity machines, and fully supported.
- 7 watt: www.onefinitycnc.com/product-...
- 14 watt: www.onefinitycnc.com/product-...
- 24 watt: www.onefinitycnc.com/product-...
- 44 watt: www.onefinitycnc.com/product-...
Lightburn Library for each here!
forum.onefinitycnc.com/t/jtec...
Laser Holders here!

We tested all four lasers side by side and scored them in 3 main categories:
- Engraving
- Cutting
- Clarity
Then we tested them on a variety of materials to find the strengths and limitations of each one…
- Wood
- Leather
- Acrylic
- Glass
- Ceramic
- Steel
Yep, you read that correctly. The 44 watt diode laser engraves STEEL! And without pricey marking spray.
Check out the lasers on our website and upgrade your Onefinity CNC today! www.onefinitycnc.com/lasers

Nice demo. I'm saving my paycheques to eventually purchase one or your machines (Elite). Was preciously considering getting a CO2 laser mainly for engraving lamacoids and cutting thin gauge materials. Was hoping the Elite with a JTech diode could replace the CO2 machine but I'm not sure about the acylic lamcoids now. Perhaps the 7 or 14w modules can do the engraving. I don't see why you can't (in the future) mount a fibre laser head on this machine. The fibre part is a semi-fexible cable after all. Great work Onefinity!

Great video Morgan, thanks. I have the 44 and ordered the 7 for fine engraving. Can you share the test files you used for the video please? I am not new to laser but new to adding one to my Masso Foreman. Which by the way is also an awesome machine. I haven't even turned my other 2 on since the Forman arrived.

I wish you had tested the lasers cutting balsa and 1/8” plywood for RC airplanes. The cut has to be done with minimal sanding on the burnt edges. Go online and download plans for a RC plane and cut out the parts. Tnx.

Wait, that diode actually engraved INTO the metal? Not needing a coating to melt or annealing, but actually into it? For something that traditionally is not supposed to be used for that, that is amazing to me.

Actually my XTool P2 is not limited to its bed size. I can either do indexing (with passthru or I also have their feeder which can handle letting my cut/engrave/score upto ~10feet (118"). I also have an Elite Journeyman and did have the best JTech laser, but ended up selling it. I also have their F1 laser and use it to engrave all kinds of sizes and shapes as it has a removable bottom and ability to ficus the laser below base (and at upto 4,000 mm/s) Reasoning for separate laser is i need to go back and forth between my CNC and laser and didnt like the set up time. If you add a laser to your CNC, this will also limit the type of duct you can do (z dependent vs z independt). I wont even get into the fact that a C02 laser can do a much more broad range of materials. So if you JUST want to engrave your wood projects, JTech added to your CNC makes sense. But if like me, you want to engrave and cut transparent acrylic and other materials, an LED laser is not gonna cut it (pun intended ;-). But again depending on your duct preference and if wood or black acrylic is all your laser needs, then adding a JTech to your CNC can make sense (also if you need to engrave your entire project that is 4x4 foreman, JTech would be the way to go)

All good points. You’re right - a diode laser isn’t the same as a CO2 laser, and I was intentional about differentiating them in the video, as well as straightforward about material capabilities. Attaching one to a CNC is ideal for folks with limited space and want the functionality of both. If you have the need and space for a dedicated laser in addition to a CNC, that’s great! Go get ‘em, tiger 👍🏼

@MorganHop one thing that would help is to show a typical dust collection setup as well, so they can see how z dependent or z independent might work. Sure, it's easy when you don't include some kind of dust collection. Mine is z independent and goes right up the front of my 2.2kw spindle. The arms and brackets that hold it come off the spindle (obviously since it's z dependent). Even with the z independent "Suck-It pro" 1F sells, there would be some additional work each time to swap between them. I'm not saying an LED laser option isn't a good thing, I jist personally think all of the requirements and use cases have not been taken into consideration with current solutions and designs. And that results in too much time to "swap" between carve and laser. Even the video 1F jist released today on swapping totally ignores dust collection.
