Ortur Laser Master 2 S2 10W vs Ortur Laser Master 3 10W
Technical comparison · Diode laser (405–460 nm)
Same rated power (10 W) and same job, in two generations: the Laser Master 3 came out a year later. What decides is the declared speed, 20,000 mm/min against 10,000, and about €125 in price (€499 against about €375).

| Software notes | The system is fully compatible with major industry software packages, offering users maximum operational flexibility without relying on internet connections or cloud platforms. It natively supports LightBurn, the industry-standard premium software for those needing advanced design tools and optimized laser parameter control. For users seeking a free solution, the machine integrates seamlessly with LaserGRBL, still ensuring excellent results for standard engraving and cutting operations. The file format handling is highly versatile, encompassing vectors and raster images such as SVG, DXF, JPG, and PNG, thereby allowing operators to easily import design projects from virtually any CAD modeling or two-dimensional graphics environment. | Natively compatible with LightBurn and LaserGRBL for desktop control. It also features a proprietary mobile application via Wi-Fi connection for basic management and rapid file sending. |
The differences that matter
- Declared maximum speed 10,000 mm/min vs 20,000 mm/min → for the same job the Laser Master 3 finishes a full-speed engraving in half the time (manufacturer-declared values).
- Bed 390 × 410 mm vs 400 × 400 mm → the Laser Master 2 S2 takes a 410 mm side; the Laser Master 3 is 10 mm wider on the other.
- Price €499 vs about €375 → the Laser Master 3 costs about €125 less.
- Software: both work with LightBurn and LaserGRBL; the Laser Master 3 adds a mobile app over Wi-Fi to send files, handy for jobs started from the phone.
Which one to choose
Choose Laser Master 2 S2 10W if…
Jobs with one side up to 410 mm, which do not fit on the Laser Master 3. The trade-off is half the declared speed, so a full-speed engraving takes up to twice as long, and about €125 more.
Choose Laser Master 3 10W if…
Engravings repeated across the whole bed several times a week, in half the time for the same job when run at full speed; files go from the phone over Wi-Fi with the app. You lose the 10 mm on the long side.
