Built by J Tech Photonics specifically for any Axiom Iconic series CNC machine, this is the strongest laser accessory available in the market.

This kit is specific to the Axiom Precision Iconic line of CNC machines. This has everything you need to get your laser up and running on your Axiom machine.
This kit includes:

• 2.8W 445nm Laser in Custom Protective Housing and Mount
• 2.0 Amp Adjustable Safety Compliant Laser Diode Driver with Pre-Wired Connections
• Power Adapter 12V 2.5A, US-Style Plug
• Laser Safety Goggles for 445nm Lasers
• Laser Extension Cables

Due to the unique safety concerns related to laser technology a waiver will be emailed to you and must be signed prior to shipment.

Engrave on wood, leather, acrylics, and many other materials.

Cut thin and softwoods like Balsa, Basswood, and many other types of materials like foam, paper, cloth, and acrylics.

Compatible with all Iconic and Axiom i2R Series machines.

The new Axiom CNC laser by J Tech Photonics raises the bar in CNC accessory lasers. Precision laser-trimmed regulators for constant current to the laser, 0.01 tuning resolution, digital isolation, soft start, ESD protection, current limiting, and the list goes on….But we have safety in mind as well! The US Federal Government has a list of things that are required for operating these high-power class 4 lasers. 

Key Switch – A key is needed to enable the laser. When the key switch is turned on, the laser is enabled and the key CANNOT come out. You can only remove the key when it is disabled. This feature is good if you have curious children or have your laser in a shared area and want to limit use. Just take the key out and hide it!

Emission Indicator – The small LED on the front lets you know when your laser is on.

The laser unit does not allow for software variability of output intensity. Therefore, greyscale is not supported.

Driver Overview
This is the fourth generation of the popular High Current Laser Diode Driver series. We designed this new generation to follow the federal guidelines for safety compliance for high power Class 4 laser operation. This includes the use of a key enable switch, safety interlock system, power off reset, and laser LED indicators. All of these features make for a safer laser operation and will comply with federal laws regulating such operations.
