Got mine last week, no complaints other than my rotary ended up in Great Britain. They missed Michigan by a little bit. One thing I would like to see is steel net pads where the locator pins are for the honeycomb and jig table, the aluminum that those rest on now is bound to get beat up. I’m going to make some for mine out of 01 steel, they’ll last forever. They did do a great job overall on the machine. Still fabbing up that support brace to use as a handle, I’m trying to use existing holes.
Great feedback! I am currently using a ortur laser master 3, which is my first diode laser and it is a great laser but has alot of minor issues that the Roly MK2 doesnt have. Cant wait to get mine....SAVING UP ALREADY!!!!!!!
I have the original LM-10 and absolutely love it!!! One day I will have the new 10-30watt. What I would add to your review is the OUTSTANDING customer service Roly provides on its machines. And often the response is from Leo the owner of the company. The machines and the company are next to none in my opinion!!!! Thanks for the review!
I was just at their website. Their Support Setup page says "Support and FAQs" but has nothing. Their Manuals page has a link for the Lasermatic 10, but not this machine (which to be fair is only with reviewers). The Parts page is the same. There is no Community/Discussion area (or something to point you to Facebook/etc) in the Support area, either. For someone not familiar with Roly, this doesn't give you a very good feeling.
This machine was just released. I got one of the first released. The support structure is gonna have to catch up. Here is the web site and facebook group. rolyautomation.com/ facebook.com/groups/rolyofficial@@DavZell
Love your stuff…in your option would this be a bad idea to use this as a take to the craft shows with me? I know it’s bigger but for the cost and how well it’s made can’t beat it. Costing less than the actual portable and being able to engrave bigger things? If not any ideas
I also have the original MK1 10W and it's pretty sweet. I'm hoping they come out with a version with a larger working area in the near future. In the meantime I'll keep using my P20 Plus for larger jobs and faster cutting.
You're awesome! I keep learning from each of your videos 👍. I have WeCreat and am enjoying the laser. WeCreat warranty? Another subject. So, I am in need of another laser. I purchased and returned XTool M1. Why? Support! Support! And support is not in their blood. No matter how many reviews for XTool’s and their models demonstrate, the number one complaint is support. And I can testify. Plus, no matter what others say about XTool lasers, they’re overpriced. The markups for many lasers are ridiculous, knowing most are made in China with cheap labor. Pennies on the dollar during manufacturing in China. That said, what I like so far about the Roly is exactly what you said: they focus on the details, building a top-enclosed laser, and it seems support is good; they listen to their customers. And the price for MK2 is not marked up; it is at a price point where lasers should be. Your review and personal opinion of the MK2 convinced me to make a purchase. I spent too many hours watching video reviews from other channels, both good and not so good, looking for the next laser in my inventory, and yours sold me on the Roly. Again, thanks for never letting us down with your product reviews.👏😎
Did you compare the LX25 against the Woodland Mills HM126 before your purchase? Wondering if the larger WM engine is worth the extra cash? Got to run a bunch of cedar on a 126 and am pleased with the results
Yea, I compared to all the other mills in that price range at the time. I am happy with my mill but I would love to have the larger engine at times. Cedar is an easy cutting wood and doesn't take a lot. I am considering purchasing an LX55 and just using the rails I already have with it. More power does make a difference on the 16+ inch logs.
Lightburn, I is a good software. “User friendly” is a relative term to me. It is a very powerful software that does require learning how to operate. It was easy for me to
Hey Buddy great video i haven't found too many on the mk2 . I was wondering how the mk2s laser module held up against the S1 or D1 pro 40w lasers only for beam width xtool seems to have very narow beams for their size or is there noticable difference in quality of engraving/cutting
The MK2 does as well as any other machines I have used. The engraving results are really detailed. You can also switch it to 10 watt mode to get more detail.
I am researching a good starter laser. The new Roly MK2 XW might be a good fit. Would the 20W be good for cutting and engraving? Any recommendations on a better laser? Thanks.
This machine seems to have so many advantages over its competition, build quality, built in jig etc etc , which you highlighted very informatively, good job Noise is an issue to Me, neighbours. Is it the module fan or the extraction that makes the greater noise ? Can the machine be run with the lid open ? ( I run My current machine fron an appt. Balcony, exhaust not important).
@@TheClackShack Thanks for taking time to reply seems the higher noise is from the fan, so lid closed is the way forward. Just got to get lucky and find somebody that has owned the atom X30 and the mk2 30 who can give Me a noise comparison cheers
Clack I am A follower of MayMay and came to checkout your channel. I just started looking at laser engravers/cutters and came across the Roly. I would appreciate your honest opinion, do you think this is a good machine for a TOTAL newbie to the laser world? I am a papercrafter and use a brother scan and cut and several manual machines but lasers are new to me. All the reviews are great but I need an honest opinion and I know I can get that from a friend of MayMay's. Thank you
The lasermatic mk2 that I have is awesome. As long as the work area is what you need, it is a great machine. Plenty of power and they have made it really nice for batching out things. The build quality is better than most.
I thought I heard they were making some rollers that will allow you to use the pass-through with longer material. The rollers will advance the material so you are not limited to the bed size. Anyone else hear about that as a future option?
You are still limited on the x axis to the operating width of the machine. That would help on the y axis but the engrave size is still limited. I am talking about engraves wider than the 400.
Hey what machine do you like best roly lasermatic mk2 or xtool s1 I was looking at the s1 so I can interchange the different laser modules and the the other question is what machine works better with lightburn software
@TheClackShack I have been pondering if I'm gonna being using the conveyer for pass through doing long 6ft door welcome signs far as engraving them ect. I think that's where I'm torn on and if it would even be worth it or just cutting out the welcome sign then gluing to long board. Again kinda brain storming before I make purchase what do you use the s1 mainly for?
Thank you for the vid on the Roly Lasermatic MK2 I have one on order 10-30 w with roller. I have watcher all most all your vids. and love them all... PS my son is a dog handler at one of the prisons here it Arizona...Be well and be safe......
Comparing the Lasermatic MK2 to the Xtool SI, which one do you like better? I presently have the Xtool D1 Pro 20w and want to upgrade. What are the pros and cons of both machines?
The big thing is the work area. Those two machines have totally different work areas. The S1 is wide but short and the MK2 is square. Both have a passthrough that can be used if needed. If you consider the width of the pass through, the S1 has a much larger work area. Also, If you are a lightburn user, you will loose functions on the S1 in lightburn. The MK2 is right at home with lightburn. Lots to consider.
There is another one other thing that I think could be improved... Maybe you'll agree... If you open the lid when a job is running the laser will stop firing... but the machine and the program will continue to run without firing... Leaves a gap. They told me they were looking at that... hopefully they will get a fix for that.
I plan to get one in the next couple of months. I am going back and forth between the 20w and the 30w. Do you think the 30w is worth the extra cost? Also, do you think the lid provides enough protection that safety glass are not needed?
Can this lase be set on top of a larger piece of material that is too big to fit inside the enclosure and still engrave on it. My ortur and most diode can. Its hard to tell with this one.
If I have an XTool S1 40w and am thinking of buying a Roly Lasermatic MK2 what does the lasermatic do better than the XTool. Would there be any reason to buy an MK2 30w? Could someone with both compare and contrast them for me?
The S1 is a good machine and the only big reason would be if the Y axis wasn't tall enough and the passthrough wasn't what you want. Or if you are really into having a camera..
Some double sided magnetic tape should solve one of your issues. Thanks so much. Another great video from the Shack. I always feel you’ve really noticed and thought about each item before you post about it.
Im looking to get a new laser to put my fox alien back to cnc. It is 10w output. What if any advantages to this roly in 30w over a co2. Cost being the obvious advantage
CO2 and diodes are different animals. To get a CO2 with this size work area, you will obviously spend way more and will need a chiller also. Much more maintenance and a larger space requirement.
The WeCreat will not currently work with lightburn. The MK2 also has a bigger work area. My MK2 is a 30 watt. If you like lightburn, the MK2 is the better option currently.
It takes 10 minutes from getting into your shop before you can start making smoke? I can beat that hands down. Hold my beer!... Oh, wait. You mean using the laser to make smoke ob purpose while engraving or cutting... Oh... NVM 😂 Thanks for the great review. I almost pulled the trigger on the WeCreat when I heard about this, so now doing more research
Yes, I have watched your S1 video. I just think that the current Roly is a good machine but not the “Second Coming” that some people feel that it is. Yes the S1 can be somewhat expensive if one were to add all the goodies, but the different add ons can be purchased separately to meet a given requirements. It would seem that adding the pins to remove the need for additional jigs would be a simple modification. I’ll go away now.
Thanks for a full the description of the Roly. However, I will still stay with my S1. 1. It can also be lifted out of the box, and with the removal of a few shipping screws it’s ready to go, with the exception of mounting the laser module which takes literally 30seconds. 2. It has a much larger work surface. 3. It has a Class 1 Laser Safety Certification. Therefore it can be used both with 20 watt and 40 watt blue lasers or a 2 watt IR laser by only swapping the laser. 4. It has five internal flame sensors. With the optional CO2 extinguisher, it can automatically discharge the extinguisher if flames are detected. 5. It has a safety key, when removed, completely disables the machine to keep it safe from kids. 6. It has auto focusing. This allows convenient changing of different thicknesses of material. It also allows software available defocusing to set the exact focus lower down for cutting thicker materials. 7. The auto focus also allows for engraving curved surfaces. 8. Setting very accurate frames for round, square, polygonal objects is simple. Also lines can be specified for straight or angled lines for objects or text. 8. An optional air assist allows automatic setting of the fan speed, or four manual settings. 9. The optional riser base has many different uses. A. It has 4 slots to slide in the base pan for objects of different thickness or height. B. With an optional feeder, it can engrave materials up to 3000 millimeters long. 10. The S1 can connect with LightBurn 3 different ways. A. USB B. By WiFi if on the same network by manually specifying the S1 IP address . C. By using the WiFi by letting the router assign the IP address via DHCP. 😀
I also have an S1, it has some good features but they do not work with lightburn. You cannot cut anything taller than 12 inches without the feeder system and once you guy the machine, riser and feeder you have spent way more money. Each machine has it strengths and weaknesses. Also, without a stationary jig kit, the S1 cannot accurately batch out items. Feel free to check out my videos on the S1.
@@TheClackShack I think it is up to LightBurn to up its game. At least there are currently two ways for LightBurn to connect to WiFi which the current version can’t connect to the Roly wirelessly. Let’s hope the next version of LightBurn has some added goodies for most everyone. 🤞
@@TheClackShack How does the scale one uses matter with "newer machines"? There are obviously many more steps in the mm/min scale than the mm/sec, much finer control of speed.
@AndrewPlumb If it's because your PC isn't close enough to run a USB cable to the laser, then pick up a cheap used office PC off ebay to run it, or repurpose an old PC for that job.
I’m confused. I’ve seen other videos saying it does work with Lightburn but this one said more than once that it doesn’t. Even after confirming with the company.
Thank you for the great intro to this machine. Great one!

Figure out what you want to do with it and work from there..

@@TheClackShackThat's what the included bracket is for, so it can go lower.
Can you cut also metal with this machine?
Not made for cutting metal. I would not recommend it
Using the aluminum jig plate that came with it, do you get any extra smoke build up on the bottom of the piece you are cutting?
I wouldn’t be cutting on the panel, just engraving. The honeycomb is for cutting.

That sounds about right
Will this engrave onto 40oz tumblers? If so, how long do you think it would take to engrave a full wrap ?
It is possible, It would depend heavily on the design.
