The MetalFab boasts a number of standout features that enhance both its power and usability:
1.
Powerful Performance: Equipped with industrial-grade Coherent chips, the MetalFab delivers an impressive output of
1200W efficiency.
2.
Cutting and Welding Efficiency: The machine can process materials from
0.2mm to 5mm thick, achieving an astonishing
8x efficiency compared to conventional welding methods.
3.
Intelligent Material Utilization: Utilizing dual
16MP panoramic cameras and AI algorithms, the MetalFab achieves a remarkable
98.7% utilization rate for materials, maximizing efficiency and minimizing waste.
4.
Precision Cutting: The AI-powered system offers a cutting accuracy of
±0.1mm, making it ideal for projects requiring fine detailing.
5.
Gas Optimization: Designed to reduce operational costs, the MetalFab saves up to
50% gas when compared to nitrogen cutting by optimizing pressure levels.
Enhancing User Experience
Ease of use is a noteworthy aspect of the MetalFab. Users benefit from a simple two-step workflow: inserting the welding gun into the CNC platform. Moreover, the device incorporates advanced features such as VibeFreeCut™ for optimized motion, ObstacleFree™ for collision avoidance, and FlexiTrack™ for real-time adjustments. The included
8-inch touchscreen interface allows users to navigate effortlessly through a software program that supports
108 preset parameters, enabling customized experiences.
As xTool aims to break down barriers in the metal fabrication sector, the MetalFab is being positioned not just as a machine, but as an empowerment tool for creators and entrepreneurs, driving broader participation and innovation.
