  • Looking to learn how to use a fiber laser engrave in colour on brass ( I am Australian its how we spell it)? Did you even know it was possible. Join me on my journey into the brave new world of colour UV. Hahaha ok Dad joke. Look If you guys want all my settings I will move them from crumpled bits of paper to the internet, but first up? Iwant some views! :-) OK I know I am making you work for the settings, but hear me out. I took two weeks of personal leave to get these settings and if all I get in return is a bigger youtube audience then I am good with that. So get in, Have a go.
    www.niroc.com.au is my website, if you want to support me and what I do, buy some stuff. Its good stuff and you will like it.

    Came from Pask's die filer video which sent me to your website. Top notch stuff you're producing. Had no idea how you made it look like different metals the way you do. Popped over here and learned something new. Subscribed to see what else i can learn in the future.🤙🏻

    Thanks for the effort. None of this works for me, but I appreciate the time and energy you've put into this and for releasing your results. My Raycus 20w only does 20khz- 80khz.

      Damn! Actually I do get some pretty interesting results at lower frequencies but more shades of brown. It would be interesting to do some material tests on that space.

    Hi Corin, thank you for the settings starting points, i foolishly started with a 70mm lens but got the pink by reducing the power, popped my color cherry funnily enough on a cherry :) - just a note on the secret first pass, you say on the video that line spacing is 0.02 but on the text with settings is 0.03, not that i think it would make much of a difference, love your products, thanks again.

    just like the title says, not super hi freq mopa is needed BUT over 60khz is needed. . A raycus or max running between 30khz-60khz will not make these colors.

    you should include that you need a Fiber laser capable of Frequencies ranging from 1 to ?? because standard Raycus 30W Machines best case scenario freq range is only 20k to 80k... so, not capable of doing 400hz or even 600hz...

    Thank you for taking time to make this video. It was linked in a Facebook xTool F1 Ultra owner’s group. I’ve searched the available technical information on the F1 Ultra and am unable to find the kHz information. It has a two 20 watt lasers (one regular and one fiber). Mine is on order and won’t likely be received until August. Given some of the comments related to kHz parameters to achieve the color spectrum you have been able to achieve, it’s not clear to me if the F1 Ultra will reproduce your results. Is there anyway you can opine on the F1 Ultra’s ability to create the colors in your video? If it does, you are likely to get many new followers. Thank you in advance!

    is there a logic you used to find the settings you shared, or is it brute force, over time, coming across settings that work?
    it seems with 5 or more variables, it would be difficult to find something new.
