Hello friends, I’m new to the CO2 laser field and I’m interested in an entry-level 40x60 model with 50w.
I see that many models are exclusively 220v, according to the product description.
Investigating the power supply a bit more, I noticed that many power supplies have a bivolt option, meaning they accept either 127v or 220v input.
If I buy a CO2 laser cutter that is 220v, would it be straightforward to swap it for a 127v power supply?
Thanks everyone!
Often it is the other way around, all Europeans use 230V, and then it is not so easy. 
But transforming the power down is relatively easy and cheap.
If you can’t get a 110(127)V original machine, which would be the best, you can buy a transformer and change the power this way, or build one yourself. But, you also have to remember/take into account that you can’t just use the power supply for the tube, the rest of your laser has its “own” extra power supply and must also be transformed down.
Is your mains power 240V or 120V? You are not clear about your source voltage. If you live in a 240V area, it shouldn’t be a problem is it works on the home mains.
If you live in one of the US type 120V areas, you can generally get a machine for the voltage.
These are usually available in both voltages depending on your area… What is your area?
