  • Creality 10W Falcon laser module is a great solution for 3D printer owners, who don't want to buy a separate dedicated laser engraver. This 10W module can be installed to almost every Creality 3D printer. From Creality I got the Air Assist kit and honeycomb grid too.

    READ BEFORE INSTALL. Do not go cutting and drilling the bracket! It comes perfectly ready for install even with the extruder left on. I will give him some slack though, the instruction booklet doesn't do a great job showing how the bracket goes on.

    For anyone watching this that dont want to do all the extra cutting and drilling, it is way simpler than this. the mount he has is made to mouth WITH the extruder still on the printer. he has it installed wrong. he has it turn the wrong way. it sits along the the top railing under the back side and clamps in. then tighten the screw under the bottom and it will not move at all!

    I followed your advice, printed your shim with my Saturn S but I could use a little help on the setup whether on LightBurn or LaserGRBL as I am getting beeps and error messages.
    Would it be possible to chat to see this together?

Anyways I got all the parts I need besides the red Magnetic Lense/Sheild that attaches to the bottom of the laser module, I want to 3d print one but need to know the dimensions, more specifically just the height of the red shield, I can measure the laser module for the with, but cannot just guess the height because the beam needs to be focused. If anybody can measure the height of the red Sheild with a caliper and tell me how many mm it is i would appreciate it more than you could imagine!!

      I have also bought this the 10w laser
      And i made an bracket to attach the motherboard box to my ender 3v2 neo printer
      I also routed the cables together with the ones from the 3d printer
      Now i just have to undo the z axis motor and limit switch an plug in the ones from the laser that i gave a red zip tie i also have to do it for my y axis motor and limit switch
      Then attach the laser plug in the cable
      Plug in power to the motherboard and im done it takes max 2 minutes .
      And it works exxelent i can engrave everything .metal,glass,plastic,wood stone,leather,everything .with the proper settings
      They also give manuals on the sd card like with any creality printer where you can find an diagram for what speed and power you need to set the laser to for engraving all kinds of matterial and also an diagram for cutting some matterials
      I am pretty happy with it and the air assist u only need it with wood and different matterial than may burn a little .
