Hello Snapmaker Ray enthusiasts!
Let me introduce our Early Adopter Program for the Snapmaker Ray 20W & 40W Laser Engraver and Cutter. This program is exclusively for those who have pre-ordered the Ray (including the Ray machine package or Ray machine body with 20W/40W laser module). We want to provide you with an opportunity to fully experience the capabilities of the Ray machine before anyone else.
As an early adopter, you will have the chance to actively engage with the Snapmaker team, providing valuable feedback and collaborating with us to improve the user experience. Your insights will play a crucial role in identifying any potential issues and optimizing the functionality of the Ray machine and Luban. We highly value your feedback and strive to ensure that the final product exceeds your expectations.
To apply for the program, simply make a post below this topic. Please note that the early adopter’s Ray machine is exactly the same as other Ray machines for the first batch delivery.
To facilitate your involvement, we will expedite the shipping process for your order by changing it from sea shipping to air shipping. We will cover the cost of this shipping upgrade. This means you will receive your Ray machine 2-3 weeks earlier than other users in the first batch. During this time, we encourage you to thoroughly use the machine and provide us with your valuable feedback. Any issues or suggestions you raise will be promptly addressed, ensuring a better experience for the entire community.
Moreover, as one of the pioneering users of the Snapmaker Ray, you will have the exciting opportunity to showcase your creative projects and share your experiences with the community. Your contributions will help others understand the real-world applications and benefits of the Ray.
When applying, please provide the following information to help us better understand your background and select suitable participants for the program:
-
Your country and city of residence.
-
Your level of laser engraving and cutting skills, as well as the number of years of experience.
-
Photos of any laser projects you have completed in the past.
-
How frequently you plan to use the Ray laser cutter.
-
Your experience with using Luban and Lightburn software, including whether you have a Lightburn license.
-
Your availability to fully dedicate yourself to the testing and feedback process in October.
-
Your professional background and skill set.
-
Any other information you would like to share with us.
We appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to be part of this program. Your active participation will help shape the future of the Snapmaker Ray and benefit the entire community.
Thank you!
