Who it’s for

Is the VLS3.60ES the right fit?

The VLS3.60ES pairs everyday laser capability with a door-mounted camera for lining up work on screen. For a personalization business, design studio, or teaching lab, that visual approach makes the relationship between the artwork and the piece easier to see. Its 24 × 12-inch work area, Laser System Manager software, and Windows or Mac compatibility distinguish it from the VLS Desktop DT models.

Where it fits

  • Personalization businesses

    Use the camera to help position artwork on individual pieces.

  • Design and teaching studios

    Bring visual alignment into the process of moving from a digital design to a physical object.

  • Shared workspaces

    Choose a desktop system that accommodates Windows and Mac workflows.

Choose it when camera-assisted setup is a priority. It offers the same work-area dimensions as the VLS3.60DT, with a different software and alignment experience.

Overview

About the VLS3.60ES

The VLS3.60ES is a desktop laser with a 24 × 12 in work area, up to 4 in of material height and a door-mounted camera for lining up your work on screen. It takes one CO₂ laser from 10 to 60 W at 10.6 µm, or 30 or 50 W at 9.3 µm. It runs from Laser System Manager (LSM) with the Intelligent Materials Database, on Windows 10 or 11 or macOS, connected by USB. It plugs into a standard 110V/10A outlet (or 220–240V/5A) and needs one 3″ exhaust port with 250 CFM at 6 in static pressure.

Exhaust for this laser

Exhaust requirement

One 3″ port · 250 CFM @ 6 in static pressure

The VLS3.60ES needs exhaust airflow while it runs. You can vent it outside through ducting with a blower that meets this requirement. If you can’t vent outside, use a fume extractor: it filters the air and returns it to the room.
