xTool P3 80W CO₂ Laser Cutter and Engraver
Professional Power, Intelligent Automation and a Generous 36" × 18" Workspace
The xTool P3 is a flagship 80W CO₂ laser cutter and engraver built for small businesses, production shops, schools and serious makers who need more power, more workspace and greater efficiency. With a spacious 36" × 18" processing area, high-speed motion system, motorized lifting platform and intelligent camera-assisted workflow, the P3 is designed to take projects from setup to finished production with less manual work.
Its powerful 80W CO₂ laser can cut thick wood and acrylic while producing detailed engraving on a broad range of materials. Because CO₂ laser light is readily absorbed by clear acrylic, the P3 can cut and engrave transparent, colored, mirrored and opaque acrylic—materials that standard diode lasers often cannot process effectively.
Whether you are producing custom signs, layered wall art, personalized gifts, retail displays or batch orders, the xTool P3 gives you the power and capacity to grow.
Powerful 80W CO₂ Laser
The P3’s 80W CO₂ laser delivers faster cutting, cleaner edges and greater material capacity than lower-powered desktop laser systems. It can cut wood up to 20 mm thick and transparent acrylic up to 25 mm thick under appropriate conditions. Actual cutting performance will vary based on the type and density of the material, focus lens, machine settings, material flatness and other operating conditions.
The P3 is especially well suited for businesses that work with:
The standard CO₂ laser does not cut bare metal. An optional 5W infrared module is available separately for engraving selected metals and plastics, expanding the P3’s customization capabilities.
Large 36" × 18" Processing Area
The P3 provides a maximum standard processing area of approximately 36.02" × 18.03"—915 × 458 mm. This generous workspace makes it possible to create larger signs, cut multiple parts at once and arrange more products on the bed for efficient batch production.
The larger work area is ideal for:
-
Business and storefront signs
-
Oversized home décor
-
Layered wall art
-
Cabinet and furniture components
-
Large acrylic displays
-
Multiple ornaments, tags or coasters in one job
-
Production runs of personalized products
For projects longer than the standard bed, the optional xTool Intelligent Conveyor Feeder allows the P3 to process long materials in sections, making it useful for long signs, decorative panels and production work.
High-Speed Production
The P3 reaches maximum processing speeds of up to 1,200 mm/s for vector processing and up to 400 mm/s for bitmap processing. Its combination of speed, power and large bed size allows businesses to complete individual projects faster and place more products into each production run.
This increased productivity can be especially valuable for shops producing:
Intelligent Camera and Positioning System
The xTool P3 incorporates a multi-camera system to help simplify material placement, design positioning and machine monitoring. Its camera system includes a 16-megapixel distance-view camera and a 5-megapixel close-view camera.
Users can view the material inside the machine, position artwork over the captured image and preview the layout before processing. This can make it easier to align designs on pre-cut pieces, use irregularly shaped material and reduce waste when working with valuable stock.
The P3’s automated workflow can assist with:
-
Capturing the work area
-
Identifying compatible materials
-
Measuring material placement
-
Automatic focusing
-
Positioning artwork
-
Monitoring the project during operation
-
Setting up repeated or batch jobs
Material identification and automated settings should always be reviewed before starting a project, especially when using materials from different manufacturers.
Built-In Motorized AutoLift Base
Unlike systems that require a separate manual riser base, the P3 includes a built-in motorized lifting platform. The machine supports material heights up to approximately 8.66"—220 mm—in manual mode and up to approximately 7.08"—180 mm—in automatic mode.
This additional vertical capacity makes it possible to engrave thicker and taller objects, including:
Curved-Surface and Rotary Engraving
The P3 can process compatible curved surfaces and can be paired with an optional xTool rotary attachment for cylindrical, spherical and ring-shaped products.
Depending on the rotary configuration, users can personalize:
-
Tumblers
-
Mugs
-
Glassware
-
Bottles
-
Wooden rolling pins
-
Flashlights
-
Cylindrical containers
-
Ornaments
-
Round keepsake boxes
-
Rings and bracelets
Always verify the diameter, material and rotary configuration before processing.

Materials the xTool P3 Can Engrave
The standard 80W CO₂ laser can engrave or mark many materials, including:
Bare metals generally require a laser-marking compound or the optional 5W infrared module. The ability to mark a particular metal will depend on its alloy, finish and surface treatment.
Optional 5W Infrared Module
The optional 5W infrared module adds the ability to engrave selected bare metals and certain plastics. It does not replace the 80W CO₂ laser for wood or acrylic cutting, and it is not designed for cutting metal.
Depending on the material, the infrared module may be used to mark:
Results vary by material composition, surface finish and settings. The 5W infrared module is sold separately unless specifically included in the selected bundle.

Safety and Enclosed Operation
The xTool P3 is classified as a Class 1 laser machine when operated in its standard enclosed configuration. Its enclosure, monitoring system and multi-layered safety features are designed to provide a more controlled working environment.
When the optional conveyor feeder is installed and the machine openings are exposed, the system is classified as a Class 4 laser and requires additional precautions, workspace controls and appropriate protective equipment.
All laser processing creates smoke, fumes or airborne particles. Proper exhaust or filtration is required, and users must confirm that every material is safe for laser processing before placing it in the machine.
Never process PVC, vinyl, PTFE, materials containing chlorine or fluorine, unknown plastics, fiberglass, carbon fiber with resin, or any material that may release corrosive or toxic fumes.
