I’m not sure I understand why it’s slower. Does it not engrave at the same speed as if you were doing one at a time? Otherwise just waiting for the slide to move the next project under the laser.
The slide is limited by the physical limitation of the stepper motor to drive it, too much speed or acceleration would cause the parts to shift. The F1 without the slide uses tiny mirrors to position the beam, and they can move much faster. You are swapping the X-axis in mirrors to moving a tray of parts with a motor, so that is why it is slower.
No stain. Good video. Thank You.
How do you like the air purifier? How long do the filters last? Nice video. My F1 was delivered yesterday.
No stain. Looks good just like that!
Must one calibrate the slide extension every time you remove it and reconnect it?

Have you trying using the slider with XCS 2.0? that may make a difference.
I’ll definitely need to do an updated video in a month or so to see what difference 2.0 makes. Thanks for watching!
