    @enricomayers Рік тому +57

    When producing your files to engrave/cut, its best to cut inner shapes first and then the final shape last. If you cut out the external perimeter first, there is a chance the piece will shift, since it's no longer attached to the source wood. Inner to outer will ensure the alignment remains the same. Doesn't seem to be an issue on this particular project, but there may be some designs where it'll come in to play.

    Hey Joshua, over the last few days I've been checking out your reviews of CNC Lasers... Thanks so much!!! I'm in that downward spiral/rabbit hole researching these 10W lasers, but I think your reviews is helping me dial in what would work for me. 10W, and a longer bet like 400m x 850mm, so a Ortur LM3 Laser w/extension kit would work, but of course a more costly entry point. Anyway, carry on your awesome reviews :)

    Fantastic video! Appreciate this showing off the capability of these systems. As much as I'd love to invest in one of these open air CNC lasers, my biggest apprehension is safety around using one of these. 10W DC lasers can easily blind someone, and the shield on these systems does not account for reflection, which can arise from Metal engraving. (Might be an excuse for me to build some robust shroud).

    for cutting every laser, diode or co2 works better with air assist for a few reasons. it adds oxygen to the fire as it's burning, as well as clears the line of sight for the laser to the material. I'm surprised that these LED lasers haven't had air assist from the very beginning to be honest. but I guess few people thought they would cut at that time? not sure but it should be standard on every machine

      Also if doing a lot of laser cutting get hold of the widest tape that will fit your laser bed, for example 3M do tape up to 1450 mm wide. Another tip is that if you are cutting say very thing card or wood sheets and want to laminate them together for a sculptural type effect, buy sheets of douple sided tape (like double sided sticky tape but in large sheets) and apply before cutting, the laser will go straight through the tape along with the material creating the perfect shaped pre applied stick on backing

      You might know how a starter motor can stick and requires a gentle tap. Well I'd actually never come across this until, there we all were sitting in a helicopter. immediately before take-off the Pilot hopped out with a little hammer.

    Just a heads up, if you mask off the wood with wide format masking tape, the wood will stay looking clean on the face. You’ll just have to remove the tape that is leftover.

    Zink spray is best for "blacking".. after lasering, remove that paint with acetone or something, it leave very good marking where laser hits. Works with titanium too!

    you should refocus the diode on thicker wood, the sweet spot on the diode is only a few mm's wide where it will cut at maximum strength, do one pass, re focus the machine to the depth of that pass less 1 mm and do the next, you should be able to get through in 3 passes not 16, a good cutting speed is 5 on speed and 100% on power if you are using Lightburn , always use air assist on cutting and never on engraving as it chars the woo9d.
    If you try these settings and re focus you should not get so much damaged to the face of your wood, you can also apply laser tape to the surface of the wood for a better cleaner cut.
    Choose thinner stainless steel if you want colours, the colours are generated by the heat of the laser as the metal warms, if its too thick it wont colour, with thinner stainless you can get a very broad range of colours, in Lightburn you have options to help you and the forum is a great resource.
    There are diodes a lot better than this which will cut up to 10mm in one pass because of the lens it uses. If anyone reads this I suggest you do your homework before buying this Laser as there are a lot of machines out there now from 100 usd upwards but once you get to the 600 mark consider using a C=2 laser which is much more powerful, the cheaper ones are known as K40's just make sure it is Lightburn compatible as that is the best Laser software you can buy. Nothing on the market is as powerful and easy to use.
    Always remember that these using a burning light to cut through wood or mark materials, make sure you take reasonable precautions to prevent that light from damaging anything directly under the laser as it can cause fires otherwise. Always where protective glasses and NEVER EVER leave the laser unattended and observe the 1 hour fire rule, return to the place of cutting within 1 hour of finishing to make sure there is nothing smouldering.

    i am wondering if the resolution is good enough to write text and logos on a chip package.
    that would be nice for some low volume production where you buy empty microcontrollers or fpgas, program them, remove the original writing and apply the new product name.
    usually the manufacturers can do this as well but with volumes lower than 10.000 pieces they don't even have time to speak with you. and of course it costs extra.

    When you did your recommendations, I was thinking exactly the same things. Especially the height adjustment. I would go one better on that...I would have the machine follow curved surfaces automatically so the distance between the laser and the material stays consistent. On your curved example, the shading would have been consistent if the laser was at a consistent height.

      I have 9 lasers now. Several haven't made the cut (figuratively and literally). I think this one is actually my favourite of the 10w models. I like the screen and using it without a computer and the laser has been consistent and reliable. They're giving me a 20w module for it next year to try out which is exciting. I'm also testing a 50w co2 laser shortly but that's 10x the price. Cheers J

    Having an own laser cutter/ engraver is a huge advantage in comparison to other shops. I'd really like to have a go at laser engraving, sadly I'm quite useless with Fusion 360 and similar programs so that probably will be just a dream 😅
    Also I really like the idea of your second online shop and selling boxes etc, might be a good way to make a profit. Especially if you just cut it and send the board of plywood "as is/cut" to the customer for self assembly 🤔👍

    • @joshuadelisle
      @joshuadelisle  Рік тому +1

      Thank you. Yes I love these machines and what they can do. I think though this channel needs to be blacksmith and metal work so it's important to separate it to another channel. Yes anything like engraving to cutting paths I can design no problem, so if it helps people out I can provide that service. Possibilities are endless. Cheers J

    • @newmonengineering
      @newmonengineering Рік тому +2

      Fusion 360 is not too hard to learn. I use it often. That said certain laser made products don't require much in the line of exact measurements. Particularly signs etc. I often just use lightburn. It has its own CAD like interface and I can draw a sign in a few seconds with it. What it's nit great as is designing exact strange shapes with exact measurements, what it's great at is engraving images and using typical box and polygons the size you want. Most of the time if I want a box, I use an online box generator program which is free and easy. I only use fusion when I need to fabricate say a plate that has holes in certain distances and exact position things like that. But many laser projects like decorations and signs etc don't need exact dimensions etc to you don't even need to learn fusion for things like signs etc.

    When cutting plywood, a laser burns the wood, BUT melts the glue. So if you can get it in one is better because the glue will drop out of the gap.

    Great review! I'm getting the 10 watt version soon. Your home-made air assist nozzle is just pointed at the laser spot? How effective is that at keeping the lens clean if it's not under positive pressure? Subscribed.
