¶ If I have both the Snapmaker 2.0 machine and the Snapmaker Artisan machine, which one should I choose?
We recommend choosing the Snapmaker 2.0 machine with the 40W Laser Module. When you purchase the Snapmaker 2.0 machine, you will be provided with a Boosted Toolhead Cable and an Air Assist Pump Conversion Cable. These cables are essential for the proper functioning of the 20W and 40W Laser Module, as there may be compatibility issues without them.
However, Snapmaker Artisan & Ray machines don't need these extra cables. If you have mistakenly selected the wrong machine type when placing your order, you can contact support at info@snapmaker.com to make the needed changes.
