Grow faster with the new X-Carve Pro

X-carve Pro Carving 4x8 sheet

 Over the years, we’ve watched so many inspiring businesses begin using X-Carve. Most of these started as part-time projects, a side-hustle to make a little money. But then they grew into something more serious. We’ve spent thousands of hours talking with these owners to understand what they need as they expand, hire employees, and grow. They want to build products faster, carve with more precision and take on larger projects. Today, we’re excited to announce a solution for businesses that are ready to grow, the X-Carve Pro.

The X-Carve Pro includes major upgrades to our hardware, software and support. Our software, Easel Pro, now includes a Tiling feature so you can carve full 4’ x 8’ sheets seamlessly. This opens up possibilities for batch manufacturing, furniture, cabinetry, built-ins, molds and massive signs. The X-Carve Pro comes in two models—4x2 and 4x4—so both handle full sheets in a much smaller footprint.

We also added a new library with over 3 million pieces of artwork. Sign makers rejoice! Whatever the job, you’ll have tons of good images to choose from. 



Significant hardware improvements mean that X-Carve Pro carves up to 25x faster and with higher precision. It can create detailed V-Carvings while having a 5.5 foot span on the gantry. To maintain rigidity we built a massive gantry system with a custom extrusion and die cast risers, installed 25mm ball screws with precision ground linear guides, and 292 oz-in stepper motors to achieve 300ipm rapid moves. It also features a 2hp (1.5kW) integrated air-cooled spindle with VFD (variable frequency drive), which requires no programming or set up.

With this new hardware you can perform deeper carves and remove material faster. In tests we carved ¾ depth per pass with a ¼” bit on birch plywood. That means more carves per hour and more jobs per day.

The X-Carve Pro is designed to be usable by anyone. Find your nearest standard 120V outlet and you’re ready to go.

For X-Carve owners that are considering buying an X-Carve Pro, you can connect either machine and Easel Pro will automatically recommend the right cut settings. you can also store custom settings for each machine you own.

The support team and services are also growing for our X-Carve Pro customers. We’ve increased the size of our US-based team who is available by phone, emails, and video chats every weekday from 9-5pm CST. We’ve also added two new warehouses, so we can ship to you even faster. We now cover 95% of the USA via ground shipping within two days. The X-Carve Pro includes a 1-year warranty which can upgrade to 3-years.

Cold calls are ruining the world

-
One of our motivations for launching the new Inventables Marketplace was to end cold calls. In our view cold calls are ruining the world. We hope our new website puts an end to cold calls. The reason we think cold calls are bad is they interrupt productive work. Most engineers that work in product development wish they had more time to work on designing their product. They often find themselves in back to back to back meetings and when they finally get back to their desk the phone starts ringing. We hope that Inventables Marketplace will be so effective at connecting vendors with new customers they will spend time educating the world about their products by creating and updating product profiles like this one for Overmolding with Plasma Treatment rather than cold calling prospective customers and interrupting their work.

Oneth1ng - From Inventables Labs

Inventables fosters a culture of innovation. We think of innovation in the same way gardeners think about growing beautiful flowers. You can't "build" a beautiful flower you just need to set up the right conditions. Nutrient rich soil, water, sunlight, seeds, and patience will eventually yield nice flowers. At Inventables we provide an exploration budget , we give our agile teams free point Friday to work on whatever THEY think is most important. We're proud to announce that our software engineering team used Free Point Friday to create a digital tool to help Agile teams with their standups each morning. The app is free and is called Oneth1ng . It helps your team track the most important thing you want to get done every day. If you don't work in an agile software development process but you are the kind of person that likes to focus on one thing at a time you might want to check it out too.

Hello, I would like to introduce a small design project to the inventables blog. A documentation of the collaboration between two young designers; myself, Daniel Schaumann, and my roommate, Federico Rios. Fed and I are coming together to tackle one of the most iconic and tested product categories, the lamp. We will be blogging every day for a few weeks to document or progress through our design process. From research, to ideation, through concept creation, prototyping and delivering a finished product; we will be sharing our every step. We hope to make this as exciting for you, our viewers, as it is for us as designers. Let us know what you think. Enjoy! Day 1: Today, Federico and I wanted to gain a perspective on the current product landscape. We searched popular blogs, online retailers, forums, etc.. for lamps that peeked our interest, noting material and construction choices as well as function and overall form. We found inspiration in everything from high tech, premium market prod
