xTool Unveils F2 Ultra: The World's First AI-Powered MOPA Dual Laser for Creative and Commercial Empowerment Français
Central to F2 Ultra is the MOPA (Master Oscillator Power Amplifier) laser technology, offering greater flexibility, precision, and material compatibility than traditional fiber lasers. With adjustable pulse width and frequency, the MOPA laser enables deep engraving and 3D embossing on various materials, along with intricate color engraving on metal that reveals over 100 vibrant tones. Paired with the diode laser, this dual-laser setup truly embodies the "one machine does it all" concept, enabling users to cut and engrave on nearly all materials, thereby enhancing creative possibilities and product offerings.
F2 Ultra is also the first AI-enhanced MOPA laser system, streamlining laser workflows for users of all skill levels. With a single click, the AI automatically identifies materials and applies optimal settings. The integrated AI Design feature converts basic sketches into ready-to-engrave files with 3D previews. Its dual 48MP cameras, dubbed "AI Eyes," deliver real-time precision with 0.2mm accuracy, simplifying alignment and saving materials.
With speeds of up to 15,000mm/s, F2 Ultra significantly reduces production time. A working area 115% larger than that of typical MOPA lasers supports larger objects and facilitates batch processing. Features like Smart Fill and Auto Streamline Conveyor enhance efficiency, making it ideal for businesses scaling production without sacrificing quality or precision. Designed with safety in mind, F2 Ultra features a fully enclosed body with enhanced casing and protective layers to prevent laser leakage. The sealed design contains fumes and reduces disruptions, making the system ideal for settings such as studios, fairs, and public retail environments.
As industries shift toward integrated solutions that emphasize user experience and operational excellence, the xTool F2 Ultra stands out at the intersection of innovation and practicality, embodying the brand's mission to "turn creativity into reality." It offers limitless applications, from personalized gifts at craft fairs to professional-grade customizations in maker spaces, all while prioritizing safety at every step of the creative process.

Tamarack Valley Energy Announces Offering and Pricing of $325MM, Five-Year Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2030 and Partial Redemption of its Existing $300MM Unsecured Notes due in 2027
/NOT FOR PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES. ANY FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF U.S. SECURITIES LAW./ CALGARY, AB, July 14, 2025 /CNW/ - Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd. (" Tamarack" or the " Company") (TSX: TVE) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an underwriting agreement to sell, on a private placement basis (the " Offering"), $325MM aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior unsecured notes due July 25, 2030 (the " 2030 Notes"). The 2030 Notes will be issued at par under a trust indenture and will be general unsecured obligations of Tamarack ranking pari passu with all of the Company's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about July 25, 2025, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Tamarack has also today given notice of a partial redemption of the 2027 Notes, which redemption is conditional upon the successful closing of the Offering. Subject to completion of the Offering, Tamarack intends to utilize approximately two-thirds of the net proceeds to repay a portion of the amounts drawn under the Company's existing covenant-based $875MM revolving lending facility maturing on April 30, 2028 (the " Credit Facility"). Tamarack intends to utilize the remaining net proceeds to effect the redemption of $100MM notional amount of the Company's outstanding $300MM 7.25% interest-bearing senior unsecured notes due May 10, 2027 (the " 2027 Notes"), which is expected to be completed on or about July 25, 2025 at the applicable call premium of 102% to par plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date (collectively, the " Financing Arrangement"). Tamarack continues to prioritize balance sheet strength, together with ongoing shareholder returns and growth and development of the Company's Clearwater and Charlie Lake assets. Given the strength of the Canadian credit markets, Tamarack is proactively refinancing a portion of its indebtedness by extending the maturities on approximately 40% of the Company's debt to 2030 with attractive terms. The Financing Arrangement supports the Company by providing a more flexible and resilient capital structure. The extended debt horizon is supported by the Company's extensive inventory of highly economic drilling locations and long-term development plan. Following the completion of the Financing Arrangement, the Company's maturity profile is expected to be as follows: (1) Balances in the table above reflect the face value of the Company's outstanding indebtedness as at March 31, 2025, excluding unamortized deferred borrowing costs which are netted under IFRS. The Company's undrawn Credit Facility capacity reflects the impact of $5.9MM of letters of credit issued and outstanding under the facility. National Bank Financial Markets and RBC Capital Markets are acting as Joint-Bookrunners for the Offering. The 2030 Notes are being offered for sale in each of the provinces of Canada to "accredited investors" on a private placement basis in accordance with Canadian securities laws. The 2030 Notes have not been, and will not be, qualified for distribution in Canada by a prospectus and are being offered and sold in Canada only pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus requirements of Canadian securities laws.
