Snapmaker enclosure
1 - will it fit the A350?
2 - is the plastic enclosure laser safety rated?

Hello @mcjayjay and welcome to the forum!

1 - will it fit the A350?

If you are referring to this one:

The no, this product is specially designed for Snapmaker Original, currently incompatible with Snapmaker 2.0 A350. The Z-Axis extension module doesn’t fit in this enclosure.

2 - is the plastic enclosure laser safety rated?

This enclosure protects from potential harmful laser injuries when laser engraving in the following way

  • Laser engraving stops automatically when the door opens:
    When any of the doors is opened, the laser engraving will stop automatically; while all the doors are closed, the laser engraving will resume. As the switch is connected to the spare port on the controller, it will not influence the operation of the printer. This feature only works in USB Disk Mode.

While the enclosure for Snapmaker 2.0 offers the same feature as well as laser filtering acrylic sheets.

Please let us know if you have more questions.
