LaserPecker LP5 vs xTool F1 Ultra
20 W fiber plus 20 W diode on both machines: compare usable field size, positioning workflow and total setup cost.
Buying decision
What should drive your choice?
Equal watts do not mean equal results
Both combine 20 W fiber and 20 W diode sources. Matching outputs do not prove equal engraving depth, finish or throughput; request samples in your material.
Check the shape of your design
F1 Ultra offers a 220 × 220 mm field. LP5 lists a 160 × 120 mm ellipse and 100 × 100 mm square. Compare base fields before adding extensions.
Quick decision
Where each machine fits
LaserPecker
Choose LP5 if…
- 20 W fiber plus 20 W diode; optional slide and rotary extensions.
Watch for
- Manual red-dot focusing; the camera requires the optional safety enclosure. The 160 × 120 mm field is elliptical, with a 100 × 100 mm square field.
- Not fully enclosed in the reference bundle; provide suitable shielding and fume extraction.
- Reference price is the US standard/basic bundle checked 12 October 2026; regional prices and bundles differ.
xTool
Choose F1 Ultra if…
- 20 W fiber and 20 W diode laser sources
- 220 × 220 mm work area with optional conveyor extension
Watch for
- Material compatibility differs between the fiber and diode sources
- Use appropriate extraction and confirm intended material before processing
