Those who engrave softwoods and acrylic for small production runs will find the Aufero AL2 10W a balance between cost and actual cutting capacity (8 mm pine, 5 mm acrylic) that a 5W model under €200 simply won't achieve. Compared to 20W or camera options costing €200 more, this machine avoids the expense of smart features that aren't essential for those who already use a manual workflow. The rigid frame and 10,000 mm/min speed make it reliable for daily sessions. The main limitation is the lack of a standard enclosure, which requires working in a ventilated area and wearing protective eyewear.
