Creality Falcon2 22W review: power and safety for extremely precise engravings and cuts
Design, materials and assembly
Creality Falcon2 22W it arrives perfectly packed in a box that protects the most sensitive parts of the structure well. The real surprise was to find, directly in the box, a fully assembled product which does not require any type of intervention other than thelaser installation and the type of foot which you need. Removing the device assembly step clears the whole margin of error and the possibility that during assembly something will go wrong. If you are new to this, this is the best great advantage that you can ever find with an engraver, and an applause to Creality must be absolutely done.
The package also includes the air pump for cooling the laser, a series of sample of different materials and a practical height adjuster for the laser. Creality Falcon2 22W, therefore, is truly equipped with everything you need to start customizing your creations.
The structure is made entirely of solid wood metal and it is immediately clear that the materials used for the construction of the product are of high quality. On the front side we find a control panel that allows you to operate with the engraver even in offline mode, while for accessing we find a physical on / off button and a security key.
Precisely this theme seems to be particularly close to the heart of the team Creality: this engraver is in fact designed to be extremely safe and prevent any accidents. On the laser, for example, we find three LEDs which constantly monitor the operational status of the Air flux, the The fire produced by the engraver and the spring: in this way we always have the situation under control, with the possibility of activating a alarm system in case of malfunction.
Also the diode of the laser, which offers a power of well 22, is completely enclosed in a system that prevents any type of accidental exposure, in order to avoid accidental injuries or exposure to the annoying light emitted during engraving. Obviously, in the package there are also the safety glasses which we always recommend wearing when the device is in use.
For this review, Creality he also provided us with a Rotating support for 3D objects, one support grid which simplifies the positioning of the materials to be engraved and a practice structure and covers the engraver to avoid any exposure to the laser, while simultaneously eliminating the smell produced by the burn. In fact, the system is equipped with a fan and a ventilation pipe which, if correctly positioned, expels the stale air, completely eliminating the bad smell. The structure can be purchased separately by the engraver and is extremely simple to assemble and put into operation.

There wavelength of the laser is equal to 455±5nm, while the work surface measures 40 x 41 centimeters.
As mentioned above Creality Falcon2 is equipped with a control panel for engraving in offline mode: on the right side of the engraver, in fact, we find all the connection methods with which the device is equipped, including the support for SD card and wired connection USB-C. For our test we used laserGRBL connecting the engraver to a PC Windows 11: there was no problem recognizing the device or installing the drivers and within a few minutes Creality Falcon2 it was already available in the application.
We've engraved the iconic logo twice GizChina, remaining absolutely amazed by the quality of the engraving and its precision, as well as the speed with which this engraver operates. The process, in fact, always lasted less than 5 minutes while maintaining a very high quality. With metal, moreover, it is also possible to exploit the "Colorful Engraving“, that is, a particular one color engraving obtained through the different heating of the metal with the laser.
La auxiliary air pump, once connected, takes care of avoiding any overheating, but this engraver doesn't seem to give any kind of signal of difficulty or weakness during the cutting and personalization of the materials.
