xTool Unveils MetalFab: All-in-One Laser Welder & CNC Cutter for DIY Metal Projects

 xTool, a leader in consumer-grade laser technology, has officially introduced MetalFab—the world’s first all-in-one machine that combines handheld laser welding and fiber CNC metal cutting. Designed to redefine DIY and small business metalworking, MetalFab offers a powerful six-in-one toolkit that includes welding, CNC cutting, rust removal, and more—without the steep learning curve or industrial overhead.

Unveiled during a livestream event on April 24, MetalFab arrives alongside the launch of xTool Squad, a new global service initiative aimed at enhancing customer support and hands-on access to xTool’s growing lineup of fabrication tools.

Metal Fabrication, Reimagined for the DIY Era

With its unique modular design, xTool MetalFab allows users to switch seamlessly between cutting and welding. Just dock the welding gun into the CNC cutting platform to move between functions in seconds—no tools or complex reconfiguration required.

Key Specs and Innovations:

• 1200W Laser Output: Powered by industrial-grade Coherent laser chips for ultra-efficient performance.

• 0.2mm–5mm Material Range: Cuts or welds through a wide variety of metals, including carbon steel, with up to 8x the speed of traditional welding.

• AI-Enhanced Precision: Dual 16MP panoramic cameras and machine learning algorithms deliver 98.7% material usage and ±0.1mm cutting accuracy.

• Smart Gas Management: Built-in optimization system reduces gas consumption by up to 50% compared to nitrogen cutting.

• Advanced CNC Features: Supports speeds up to 400mm/s and cuts through 10mm carbon steel using proprietary tech like VibeFreeCut™, ObstacleFree™, and FlexiTrack™.

An 8-inch touchscreen and 108 preset parameters make MetalFab approachable even for users without industrial experience. Custom settings, real-time focus adjustment, and intuitive software controls turn what used to be complex metalwork into a streamlined process anyone can master.

xTool Squad: Expanding Access and Support Worldwide

To support large-scale tools like MetalFab, xTool also announced xTool Squad, a new global service network launching in 2025. It will include localized demo rooms, expert service stations, and professional hubs that offer in-person testing and support—reducing trial-and-error time for makers and entrepreneurs.

Appointments for demo sessions with MetalFab and other xTool products can already be booked via xTool’s support website.

Availability

MetalFab is now available for pre-order on Kickstarter at a discounted launch price. For makers, fabricators, and small businesses looking to break into metalworking, this marks a major leap in accessibility and capability.
