Both are our newest products with the latest module technology, Delta has all-in-one touch screen and it is pre-assembled, super easy to use. Alpha needs to do more complicated assembly, so it need a little DIY work. But they all have the same 22w laser module, if you are on a low budget you can consider the Alpha 22W. If you want to experience a newer and high performance engraving and cutting progress, you can choose the Delta 22W.
Does the screen support mass production?
Yes, you just need to transfer to Gcode files from lightburn or laserGRBL, and then store them to the memory of the machine.
