CNC Cutting and Engraving Heads - PLH3D-Series

The PLH3D laser head series is a new line of CNC engraving & cutting lasers based on a blue laser diodes. They can be mounted on CNC machines and 3D printers. Their design makes them more resistant to physical factors such as shocks and pollution. Each head has a built-in microcontroller and fan. The PLH3D series comprises the following products:

PLH3D-XT8 45W Laser – Features & Performance Demo
Deep focus and an extended beam waist minimize refocusing and enable fast single-pass cuts. A sub-200 µm spot delivers crisp detail while two power modes switch from grayscale engraving to full-power throughput. Integrated air-assist, copper heatpipes and a full-metal body keep performance stable. A fast driver and status LED ensure clean modulation and safe operation.
Plug & Play Kits – How to Install in Minutes
A concise walkthrough for wiring and configuring a PLH3D laser on popular routers like X-Carve and Shapeoko. Covers first-run settings and tips for clean cuts and engravings. Shows broad compatibility across many CNC platforms. Ideal as a quick start before your own install.
PLH3D-CNC Adapter PRO – Ultimate Control Solution for Your CNC Laser Setup
Simplifies wiring and control with signal conversion, OLED-guided setup and CNC-ready presets. Real-time diagnostics plus layered safety (key, signal check, auto-disarm) protect users and hardware. Works with all PLH3D laser heads. A rugged anodized enclosure stands up to workshop demands.
LaserDock PRO: Effortless Attachment for CNC Laser Heads
Snap your laser on/off in seconds with magnetic precision and integrated air/power. Auto-disconnect protects against Z-axis bumps, while gold-plated spring pins and position-locking give repeatable alignment. Compatible with all current and future heads, it’s a tidy, future-proof mount. Hard-anodized aluminum ensures durability in shop environments.
In our offer, you will also find ready kits with the laser head designed for easy assembly on devices of leading manufacturers of CNC machines.
