FLUX Ador 10W / 20W Laser Cutter & Engraver

The FLUX Ador is a professional desktop laser cutter and engraver boasting unique color printing capabilities. It is powered by three interchangeable modules, including a 10W / 20W Diode Laser for cutting and engraving wood or leather, 2W Infrared Laser add-on for engraving metal, and Printing add-on with CMYK eco-solvent ink for color printing on a variety of materials. Thanks to these versatile modules, the FLUX Ador enables you to engrave and cut through a wide range of materials while enhancing your design projects with color.

The 10W / 20W Diode Laser module is supplied by default with the FLUX Ador and offers enhanced laser intensity. It can precisely cut and engrave an expansive range of materials like wood, paper, leather, and fabric. For more information, check out the Compatible Materials section.

The 2W Infrared Laser module is available as an add-on and should be purchased separately. It operates at a 1064 nm wavelength, making it great for engraving on metal and metal-like surfaces with ease. The beam’s remarkably small diameter enables intricate designs and sophisticated engravings for various metalworking projects.

The Printing Module add-on (needs to be purchased separately) utilizes color blending technology to produce vibrant multi-color effects. The module is seamlessly compatible with CMYK eco solvent. Choose one or multiple colors — Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black (not included, need to be purchased separately).

The Ador Printing Module can be used in 3 different ways: 

• Single color (300 DPI)
• Blended color (150 DPI)
• Gradient (150 DPI)

To further enhance the user experience with the Ador, the machine is equipped with a number of ease-of-use features, including built-in auto focus, integrated air assist for the diode laser module to prevent burn marks on wood and other materials, an 8MP high-resolution camera for aligning and previewing the working area, smart dashboard for real-time progress monitoring and on-the-fly adjustments, emergency stop button, and more. In case you’d like to unlock the full potential of the device and engrave on curved objects (e.g. glassware, bottles), you can purchase the Ador Rotary add-on. Buying the Extension Base add-on will increase the height of your workpieces.

Providing professional results with an easy-to-use interface and thoughtful safety features, the FLUX Ador laser cutter is an ideal creative tool for professional makers, small businesses, educational environments, and hobbyists.

Compatible materials

The FLUX Ador is capable of engraving, printing, and cutting a wide range of materials with different properties. For more information, check out the table below.

Applications

Take a look at the following examples to assess the material processing capabilities of the FLUX Ador laser cutter & engraver.

Working area

The maximum working area of the FLUX Ador is 430 x 300 mm (when equipped with the 10W diode laser) letting you work with materials up to 30 mm thick and providing enough space for small and medium-scale design projects. To increase the workspace height, the Extension Base add-on is required (check out the Add-ons section below).

Machine controls

The FLUX Ador can be controlled remotely via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. You can also use its built-in 5" dashboard with a clear and well-organized UI for effortless standalone operation. It allows one to easily navigate files, monitor progress, and adjust in real-time.

Thanks to the fully enclosed design with less than 0.001% of laser passing through the lid, the FLUX Ador keeps the user safe during laser cutting and engraving. Press the emergency button on the right side of the machine to instantly cut off power when hazards occur.

The HD camera preview option is one of the most interesting and useful features of the FLUX Ador. It lets you place and preview the design on any material as well as rotate it and scale to see what the final result of cutting or engraving will look like.

Software

The FLUX Ador works with the proprietary Beam Studio software which provides all the necessary editing tools and supports various file formats, including vector and raster graphics, such as JPG, PNG, SVG, DXF, AI, and PDF. Beam Studio is compatible with such operating systems as Windows, macOS, and Linux. There is also a mobile app called Beam Go.

Beam Studio offers a truly streamlined workflow with the FLUX Ador.

With Beam Studio free to access, one can also enjoy a full-featured Laser Engraving service. For more sophisticated projects you can use a variety of design software due to Beam Studio seamless integration of Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Affinity Design, Autodesk AutoCAD, SketchUp, SolidWorks, Sketch, Corel Draw, and Rhinoceros. In addition, the FLUX Laser users can access over 50 projects ready for crafting by claiming them on Design Market.

Those looking for enhanced functionality can also use the third-party LightBurn engraving software which is more powerful and supports more file formats, such as AI, SVG, DXF, PDF, HPGL, and PLT for vector files and PNG, JPEG, BMP, TIFF, TGA, and GIF for raster images. LightBurn is a paid software but it offers a free trial period. It is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Lightburn supports basic operations including focusing, framing, and processing. However, being a third-party software, it may not provide comprehensive support for all features.
