Product Information

Full details

The xTool Blade Housing is an essential accessory for M1 laser cutter and engraver owners who need to perform precise blade-based cutting tasks. It is designed for creators looking to expand their material capabilities beyond laser-only projects to include items like vinyl, paper, cardboard, felt, and light-weight fabric. While it offers versatile material support, users should note that the housing only accommodates one blade at a time, requiring a quick manual swap if switching between different cutting angles.

FAQs

Can I use both blades at the same time?

No, the housing only accepts one blade at a time. You must manually swap the blade based on your project requirements.

Is this compatible with non-xTool blades?

The housing is engineered specifically for use with the xTool M1 system and standard xTool blades to ensure perfect alignment and safety.

How often should I replace the blade inside the housing?

Replacement frequency depends on usage. If you notice jagged edges or incomplete cuts, it is likely time to replace the blade.

What is the weight of the housing?

The xTool Blade Housing weighs 80g.

Can I cut wood with this housing?

No, this housing is designed for blades. Wood cutting should be performed using the M1 laser module.

Troubleshooting

The housing does not fit into the carriage

Ensure the carriage is fully unlocked and there is no debris or old blade fragments blocking the insertion point.

Cuts are not going all the way through the material

Check your software settings to ensure the 'cut force' is sufficient for the material density, or inspect the blade for dullness.

Vinyl is tearing during the cut

Ensure the material is firmly pressed onto the cutting mat and that the blade depth is correctly adjusted.
