Information

      This grid file is designed to help you identify the ideal power and speed combination for engraving coated tumblers using the xTool M1 Ultra with rotary attachment.
Each color represents a different power/speed setting.
A simple and efficient way to test different power and speed settings before your final engraving. Always keep an extra piece of material to run a test first, this helps you quickly identify the best parameters for clean, consistent results without risking your final piece.

Step1

IMPORTANT – How This File Works

xTool Creative Space (XCS) applies settings by color, not by individual objects.

⚠️ If objects share the same color, XCS may automatically merge them into one single power/speed setting.

This file is intentionally color-coded so each test area keeps its own engraving parameters when used in Manual / Custom mode.


⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING – MATERIAL PRESETS

Do NOT select a material preset in xTool Creative Space when using this grid test.

Selecting any material (for example: Painted Metal, Powder Coated Tumbler, or Recommended Settings) will automatically:

Override all custom power & speed values

Merge the entire grid into one single setting

This file is designed to be used ONLY with Manual / Custom settings.


Step-by-Step Instructions

Open xTool Creative Space (XCS)

Set machine 

Import the file

Do NOT group or regroup objects

Confirm each color has its own power & speed setting

Enable Rotary Attachment (after the file fully loads)

Set tumbler diameter and orientation

Frame the design

Start engraving


File Size & Scaling

The default grid width is 70 mm

To change the size:

Select the entire grid

Drag the side handles to scale proportionally

⚠️ Do not resize individual elements. Always scale the full grid together to preserve spacing and test accuracy.
