Equipped with a powerful 55W CO2 laser tube, the xTool P2 boasts ultra-high absorption efficiency compared to diode lasers and can cut an 18-mm walnut or a 20-mm clear acrylic plate in one pass. Its sturdy all-metal chassis and high-quality motor allow for a maximum speed of engraving of 600 mm/s. Combined with a large working area and capability of engraving multiple objects, this ensures utmost efficiency of your engraving business with the xTool P2 model.
The xTool P2 features two 16-megapixel cameras, a panoramic one for a live preview of the entire working area, and a close-range camera for a precise view of a particular spot with a vision precision of 0.3 mm. The camera is also used to detect the shapes of multiple similar objects placed on the bed surface, and apply a selected design pattern to all of them, thus allowing fast batch engraving. With the xTool P2, object shapes that can be engraved are not limited to only flat ones. Automatic surface scanning and 3D model building allow it to engrave on curved surfaces with auto focal length adjustment. And the use of an optional rotary add-on further extends creative opportunities with curved surface engraving on cylinders, spheres, and rings. The machine is equipped with a pass-through slot for processing extra-large objects. With an optional Automatic Conveyor add-on, the maximum working area can reach 3000 x 500 mm.
The xTool P2 55W CO2 laser cutter and engraver was designed with safety in mind. Its fully enclosed design with a transparent light-filtering lid blocks hazardous laser radiation and prevents smoke leakage. The lid has an automatic lock that is active during operation. The machine’s multiple-warning system alerts the user in case of motherboard overheating, cooling system problems, and other abnormal situations, and the E-stop button ensures a quick shutdown. Equipped with an adjustable built-in air assist and a 145 CFM exhaust fan representing an excellent smoke exhaust system, the xTool P2 features efficient ventilation, and when connected to an optional air purifier, can be used safely in any environment without risk of hazardous fumes.
The xTool P2 laser cutter and engraver is a highly versatile machine, capable of cutting a wide range of materials, including paper, wood, acrylic, leather, cardboard, MDF, felt, rubber, bamboo, fabric. It can engrave on glass, ceramic, jade, marble, shale, cement, brick, coated metal, anodized aluminum, and more.
With the working bed dimensions of 680 x 360 mm, the xTool P2 laser engraver features a working area of 600 x 308 mm (26 x 14 inches), suitable for processing large-sized materials as well as for batch production. The maximum object height of 64 mm can be extended up to 71 mm if you remove the tray. And the optional riser base allows engraving on objects with a maximum height of 215 mm.
The xTool P2 55W CO2 laser cutter and engraver can be connected to a computer via Wi-Fi, USB, or Ethernet.

You can extend the capabilities of the xTool P2 CO2 laser cutter and engraver by purchasing various add-ons.
The xTool P2 Riser Base increases the maximum height of an object to be engraved up to 215 mm. The base is completely enclosed and ensures safe operation. It is compatible with the Automatic Conveyor and the RA2 rotary add-ons.
The Automatic Conveyor mechanism is used with an automatic passthrough function for long material boards and allows for automatic engraving path planning and material feeding. It ensures precise material positioning and eliminates inaccuracy usually caused by manual feeding. By combining the Basic kit containing two pairs of conveyor rails with three additional kits (each containing two pairs of rails), you can handle materials of up to 3 meters long. Note that the Automatic Conveyor add-on must be used with the Riser Base.
The xTool Smoke Purifier is connected to the machine and features a large, 250 x 195 x 390 mm, filter with three-stage filtration including activated carbon and HEPA filters. It efficiently absorbs dust particles, toxic fumes, and unpleasant odors, allows adjusting the suction power, and works very quietly, with the noise level not exceeding 55 dB.
The RA2 Pro 4-in-1 system for the xTool P2 allows rotary engraving on spheres, rings, and cylinders and includes roller, chuck, sphere and ring rotary.
Equipped with 5 fire detection sensors, the Fire Safety Set triggers the alarm as soon as it detects fire. A few seconds later, the smart switch shuts down the machine, and CO2 gas is pumped into the working area to extinguish fire and prevent possible damage to the machine.
The xTool P2 55W CO2 laser cutter and engraver is available in a dark gray color. Its stylish look makes it ideal for any workshop or design studio.
The dimensions of the xTool P2 are 39.4 x 25.1 x 10.6 in (1000 x 639 x 268 mm). It weighs 99.2 lb (45 kg).
