I am in the market for purchasing a laser engraver and saw cloudray. I am in the USA and I am debating between a 30W EasyMarker or AirMarker portable fiber. It looks like it uses the same bottom box. There is about a 700-800 premium to the AirMarker. Is there a reason for that or is it premium just for the compactness? Primarily I will be only marking plastic parts with serial numbers, QR codes. 30W maybe overkill but I would like the flexibility if I ever need higher wattage.
These two marking machines are similar in performance.
The Airmarker is foldable and looks more flexible,but its price is higher than Eazymarker.
Cloudray has upgraded airmarker.Airmarker 2 generation has a higher cost performance, more in line with your needs.
That uses a max laser and only 20W. The older model uses a better laser and higher wattage. To me Airmaker 2 is not an upgrade if I cant have 30w and a Raycus laser
