Hey Nev,
I think only the SM700 is available with Co2 source at around 50w. I had a demo couple of years back, to do card stock lacing. Amazing fast, around 20sec to do what took 2min+ on the old Epilog. But comes with that Trotec price, you do get what you pay for, but I reckon you could get Richard to spec similar/better machine for half the cost. I also had a demo video done by Argus/Sunic have a look https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA1AP0FrOq4&t=47s under 12sec for same file. They use a Coherent tube and your choice of European or Asian Dynamic Head, around $35-50k in Trump Dollars, two years ago, might be more in Biden Dollars.
