1. Overview & Launch Context
On August 15, 2025, Monport announced the AutoForge—a laser engraver unifying dual-laser functionality, MOPA fiber color marking, and UV engraving with automation through the world’s first Automatic Loading System (ALS). The product launches on Kickstarter on August 19, 2025, aiming to revolutionize efficiency for creators and businesses.
2. Automatic Loading System (ALS): A Game-Changer
Central to the AutoForge’s innovation is its ALS. This hands-free system handles loading, identifying, engraving, and unloading automatically—even allowing up to six loading modules for simultaneous, uninterrupted multi-material processing. That transforms small-batch workflows into efficient, scalable operations.
3. Modular Laser Configurations
The AutoForge comes in three configurations:
- Dual-Laser (30W Fiber + 20W Diode)
Ideal for mixed materials—metals and non-metals—without switching machines. - 60W MOPA Fiber Laser
Enables rich color marking—over 100 vibrant colors on stainless steel—perfect for branding, awards, and decorative work. - 5W UV Laser
Designed for subsurface engraving in crystal and glass, delivering stunning clarity in premium gifts and artwork.
4. Material Versatility & Engraving Capabilities
The AutoForge supports stainless steel, aluminum, copper, wood, acrylic, leather, glass, and more. It also achieves deep-relief engraving up to 10 mm on stone and 5 mm on copper, far exceeding typical laser engraver depths.
5. Performance, Speed & Cooling Efficiency
Reaching speeds of up to 10,000 mm/s, the AutoForge is ideal for high-throughput production without sacrificing detail. Its built-in intelligent cooling system supports long engraving sessions while protecting component lifespan.
6. User Experience & Smart Controls
Ease of use is another strength of the AutoForge. Key features include:
- Offline engraving via USB
- A responsive 4.3-inch touchscreen
- Autofocus for precision alignment
- A safety glide door with detection for operator protection
7. Kickstarter Launch & Pricing Strategy
The AutoForge launches on Kickstarter August 19, 2025, with attractive Early Bird pricing:
- XPro (Dual-Laser): $2,199 – $2,699 depending on tier
- MOPA 60W: $3,999 – $4,599
- UV 5W: same discount tiers as the MOPA
A $10 deposit secures access to these tiers.
8. Why AutoForge Redefines Laser Engraving
The AutoForge is more than a machine—it’s a transformative platform. By combining automation, speed, material versatility, and multi-laser modularity, it sets new standards for small businesses, hobbyists, and industrial users alike.
