The 50W Wattsan 0503 CO2 laser engraver is a small but efficient desktop laser device that can cut and engrave various non-metallic materials. It is an ideal solution for small businesses, prototyping, educational institutions, and creative workshops because, despite its small size, it provides productivity suitable for both precision engraving and mass production. Wattsan machines, especially the model 0503, stand out in the saturated laser equipment market due to more than 50 technical achievements and design improvements. The machine provides high-quality processing of materials such as acrylic, plywood, MDF, paper, plastics and others, and is renowned for its affordability, reliability and round-the-clock operation.
Versatility and key applications
Wattsan 0503 is widely used in various industries. It is often used in the production of:
- Nameplates and panels for identification
- Advertising products and souvenirs
- Industrial seals and gaskets
- Handicrafts and decorative elements
- Labels, packaging and prototypes of materials up to 8 mm thick, such as plexiglass, double-layer plastics, textiles, rubber, cardboard, paper, natural and synthetic leather can be processed using this equipment.
Its ability to work with such a variety of materials makes it a worthwhile investment for both beginners and professionals.
Working area and build quality
The working area of the laser machine is 500×300 mm, which makes it compact enough for desktop use and at the same time provides enough space for small and medium-sized industries. It comes with an anodized plate table for reliable support of the material and can additionally be equipped with a honeycomb table, which is ideal for working with fabrics or complex patterns with many small cutouts.
The manually adjustable table allows you to move it to a depth of 200 mm, which allows you to process three-dimensional objects and install a rotary device for cylindrical engraving. This flexibility further enhances the functionality of an already versatile platform.
Mechanical components and motion system
The machine movement system is designed to ensure precision, speed and durability of operation:
- Three-phase stepper motors provide precise control of the working head
- Wide 3M cogged belts reduce slippage and extend the service life of the belt
- Leadshine 3DM580 drives ensure smooth operation and reliable operation
- PMI guides with a diameter of 15 mm ensure uniform linear movement and withstand long-term operation
The Wattsan engineering team carefully selected and balanced these components to minimize vibration and ensure high engraving accuracy without the need for frequent recalibration.
Laser system and safety features
By default, the Wattsan 0503 is equipped with a 50W CO2 laser tube, which provides a balance of engraving/cutting speed and depth. If necessary, users can switch to a more powerful laser source, thanks to a special expansion hole and an additional casing on the machine body.
To protect the laser system and extend its service life, the machine is equipped with:
- A water flow sensor that automatically turns off the laser in case of a cooling failure.
- D25 molybdenum mirrors, which are characterized by high wear resistance and excellent reflection quality
These characteristics combine to ensure long-term safety and stability even during long-term operation.
