The all-new integrated touchscreen makes the Polar+ our smartest desktop laser engraver yet! With a powerful 55W laser delivering enhanced energy, you’ll achieve deeper and faster engraving results. The entire engraving process can now be managed from the touchscreen alone—no laptop required—drastically cutting creation time. And with a simple tap, the Polar+ automatically adjusts focus for optimal precision, bringing efficiency and ease to every project.
Both the Polar and the upgraded Polar+ are advanced CO2 laser engraving machines, offering exceptional value and performance. Here's how they compare:
- Enhanced Laser Power: The Polar+ features an upgraded 55W rated laser power, providing faster and deeper engraving capabilities compared to the original Polar.
- Touchscreen Convenience: Polar+ introduces a one-tap touchscreen for a more intuitive user experience, a step up from the manual motor focus on the Polar.
- Rapid Auto Focus: Unlike the Polar's motor focus, the Polar+ comes equipped with rapid auto focus, ensuring precision and speed for every project.
- Additional Features: The Polar+ maintains its affordability while adding advanced capabilities like power loss recovery and scorch-free engraving, minimizing downtime and maximizing quality.
Whether you choose the trusted Polar or the feature-rich Polar+, both deliver reliable performance tailored to your engraving needs.
The touchscreen offers an intuitive and easy-to-use interface, as it may involve fewer steps than using software on a laptop. Direct manipulation through touch can streamline the process.
