I wish someone as experienced as you would have a keyence laser. There's a lot of cool things you do that won't work since it requires Marking Builder Plus to work the laser
Looks a nice machine Marc. A big step up from a K40. Lightburn a big plus with camera. Not jealous mate... nope. Smoke extraction looked a bit slow. What power is the laser don't think you mentioned it.
It’s a fantastic machine to be fair. I’m finding new features on it all the time too! You’re right about the smoke extraction. I have found it to be a bit slow, especially when cutting thicker woods. It’s a big extraction fan mind so might be the 5 metres of hose I’m running from it 😂 This one has a 60w tube installed. It comes as a 40w too but wanted that little extra power 👌🏻
@@MARCAM cool . I have 80W tube and power supply waiting on being fitted. It's 300 mm longer than my 40 though so need to extend the enclosure... one day...
@walesara54 I upgraded my k40 to a true 40w tube. My machine did have a little cut out already for a bigger tube to be installed. Now it just pokes out a couple hundred mil.
I’m not too sure but can check with the manufacturer. Looking at the US website that gives prices for an idea, looks like the Mira 5s is roughly £5,500 and currently the standard 5 is about £4,500
Thanks
This is a really good video!

If @keyence wanted to send me one of their lasers I’d be happy to try one out and make some videos on them 😜

Why so conservative with power? Could go significantly faster for engraving and cutting
Just something I’ve always done. Probably coming from a k40 and not wanting to run the tube out too quick.
I want it. But I'll wait for black friday.
Whats the price of these compared to the last generation of mira 5?
I’m not too sure but can check with the manufacturer.
