- Atomstack has come out with a new series of lasers called the A6 series and in this video, I'm testing the 24-watt version to see what its features and capabilities are. These are real-world tests using materials I run in my workshop all the time.

@atomstack - Jak na to + styl
I ordered the A12 Pro to do some onsite engraving. I should get it in a few days. I think I'm going to have to come up with a solution for strain relief for the cable that plugs into the module. Two people in the Atomstack facebook group have already broken those cables where they plug into the connector. I zip tied the cables to the fan grill on my Enjoywood lasers, but it doesn't look like there's enough slack to do that with these Atomstacks.
You may be able to pull the wires out a little more towards the module to get some extra slack. They are snug but have some wiggle room. I have not had an issue with mine yet, but it's not my primary in house laser, but makes for a great portable unit for on site work.
Thank you for this great review, it really excites us that our newly released products are welcomed and we will surely be working hard to bring more to our users.
It's my pleasure to test out these machines and give some feedback on how it works in my workshop on some typical projects people might look to use it for! The A24 worked great in all the tests and I'm looking forward to hopefully trying out some of the accessories for it as well.
This is a really great review. I have an Atomstack x30 pro and have been thinking about another laser. I may look at the laser as my next add to the shop. Thanks for an in depth review.
Glad it was helpful! I'm curious to see how well their enclosure/dust cover works. With the integrated camera and compact design that looks like it bolt right to the frame, it could be a great portable or second laser to have on hand. Thanks for checking it out!
Great video! I look forward to seeing their xTool S1 killer that's coming!
It's very cool to see the advancements in these lasers. Not everything is a winner, but the competition keeps driving innovation!
Good to see the enclosure used again. It seems like over a year since seeing you build that enclosure and then going on to design my own.
I designed it around the xTool D1 pro and with not much extra room. It's has not fit some of the larger lasers but it's been a workhorse for the xTool and any others I can run in it. I do plan to build a couple new enclosures for the extended lasers and large foot print square ones this winter. I do like using it when I can.
finally a good review on the new a24. been waiting for that before pulling the trigger. sounds like i'll upgrade my wobbly 5w machine
update: I upgraded my wobbly 5w machine :D included coupon with your affiliate link is much appreciated!
I hope it serves you well! I try to give a complete overview in my initial reviews to paint a good picture of the capabilities and any limitations of the machine. Thanks for checking out the video and I'm glad the extra coupon could help!
Hi love your review made me buy this machine but where can I find the materials settings guide for this machine? It’s not on their website
They do not have one specific to this machine out yet. But you can use one of the others as a ballpark guide. If you have the A24 with the 24w laser module, look at their material sheets for the A20 or X20 and that will be fairly close to the performance of this laser. I always recommend running your own test grids, but the settings for their other 20w lasers will get you close.
How to clean the laserlens?
Hi Vintauri! Please can you offer some advice on which model to choose from the three below or maybe you have other suggestions?
Atom - 24W Pro
Sainsmart - L8 20W
Rolly Automation - 20W
I am interested in it cutting very well but engraving just as well.
What would you choose if you had to work all the time, 8-10 hours a day, and also considering the prices of each? I'm thinking that for an everyday job you need a well built, robust machine with very good quality materials in order to last over time.
Which would be first, second and third, considering it worthwhile for that equipment to be part of this ranking?
Thanks! Excellent review! All the best!
I do not have any first hand experience with the other two lasers. The Roly Lasermatic is a well praised laser with good reports of support if ever needed. I like this Atomstack laser, it's a little smaller but that makes it nice for portability. I can't really speak to the Sainsmart laser as I've only used one of their lower end open frame lasers. It was decent but a far cry from any of these options.
For what i do looks great as far as wood is concern. What is your experience on Acrilyc??? Comparing this 24 Watts to their "NEW" "33 Watts" machine, in you opinion, does the additional 10Watts power JUSTIFY going to the 33 machine instead of the 24 Watts???
It will cut some acrylic but you'll be limited to the darker solid colors. Clear and translucent colors will not work well. I don't think you'll see a huge improvement in the cut quality from 24 to 33 watts. You might gain some speed but both will have about the same focus length and that is also a limiting factor. I have access to a Co2 laser which I use for acrylic as it cuts faster and leaves a more polished edge to the acrylic when done.
@@Vintauri Thanks for your opinion. Guess I will go up to the 24 based on what I use the machine for. The "new" A6 24Watts looks great, but it is ONLY 12 inches or 305mm WIDE
Will a dell mini windows 10 run light burn im looking for a budget pc
I have run Ligthburn on a number of older machines without issue including an HP mini PC> Assuming it's not too old and preferably has 8gb of ram and an i5 CPU it should be fine.
I don't know where you find the time to make these videos. I have thought about doing it because I have a lot of info to share, but no time!
You and me both, I'm a sucker for new tech so it's hard to turn down offers to test them out. Plus this is my therapy from the headaches of working in IT. I'm trying to pace the reviews a little more spread out so I can do more of my shop projects and fun projects. But it also give me the opportunity to let my friends borrow a machine to play with and see if they like the hobby before dropping down all the cash for one.
