About 12 x 12x 1/8 Birch Plywood Settings for the xTool D1 Pro 10W

The xTool D1 Pro 10W cuts 12 x 12x 1/8 Birch Plywood cleanly at 100 mm/s with 20% power. Always test on a scrap piece first — every machine is slightly different, and variables like tube age, lens condition, and material batch can shift results.

For 12 x 12x 1/8 Birch Plywood, the key variables to dial in are speed and power. If the laser isn't cutting through cleanly, slow down or add a pass before pushing power higher — excessive power causes charring and wider kerfs. Air assist is highly recommended for wood and organic materials to clear smoke and protect the lens.
