Hi Sam,

Hello,
i'am using the z axis control for laserjobs that requiring different z levels during a single run.
I have no auto high sensor yet.
But i'am otherwise a little bit frustrated with the...
Thanks Martin.
I already working on Version V8.1.16
The manual is there for some time but is very limited for explaining things. Maybe my english is too poor but most of the more complicated...
Form the picture it looks like as if the original source of the drawing was a bitmap type and got vectorized but with a much too low resolution.
It could even be a bad vector to vector format...
i would say, there was too much debris reaching the lens during past cuts.
This could be caused by too less air pressure supplied to the nozzle system or to long clean cycles during operations....
Welcome to the club.
I guess every one of us with a cheap shensui 50w has this problem, some more some less.
The problem is the whole mechanical y axis.
The linear bearings do not work as smooth...
Where ise this blue, brown and black cables connected on the other side ?

I would never ever move a calibrated and well working flat bed laser type around.
Most of them (especially the chineses models) do not have a internal self contained structure to hold all critical...
i think you have two options.
1. Try to contact the original seller of the machine and ask to buy a new Dongle.
2. Rip out the moshisoft controller and install a new one, eg. a RuiDa RDC6442....
This is what i meant with "a kind of Dongle", why should they offer such a function for free. I think they locked the special software versions onto special controllers (even if the controllers might...
TL and TH are input connections to the lasertube powersupply.
On one of both connections the lasertube powersupply gets its signal to switch the laser on/off
One of them activates the laser if...
I think a Camera is not needed to be connected to the controller, i think it has to be connected to the computer where the vision software is running.
All the math (picture processing) is done on...
If you use distilled water in a somehow protected or closed system, add some additives for preventing growing algae and other microorganisms you water might be good over years.
Anyway it is always...
I would say this is the matter of a combination of different things:
The Linear Bearing system does not run smooth enough, the belts are not strong enough and the head mount is not stiff enough....
The biggest problem on my machine is, the the geometric error varys dynamicly depending on the section of the table.
This means, i can setup the mirror alignment perfectly on both axis to have the...
I have this machine as well and after a couple of modifications it is a nice unit now.
On my setup the laser is a couple of meter away from the pc so i am quite happy to have the ethernet option....
Have you already experimented with pierce settings, leadin and leadout cuts , overlap adjustments ..... ?
Best regards,

If i look at the parameter tables for the different cermark products suitable for metal ( TherMark Laser Marking - Laser Settings Charts ) i quickly noticed that the energy density has to be quite...
From watching this video i would say on the upper side of the glass you are running out of focus too much.
I looks like as in your laser head there is a 2" lens installed what give ussualy a...
Could you do a video showing this ?

Maybe you have permanetly overdriven your CO2 Tube.
Especially on chinese machines yoi should be carefull aand stay within limited power setting.
For example, if the Tube at maximum power draws...
Can you do a highres photo of the controller, maybe we could figure out the 5V voltage regulator.
If you are lucky such device could easily be replaced by yourself (if you are able to deal with a...
Have you checked out the Hardware manual of the controller e.g. " www.leetro.com/english/down/productcatalog2015/Manual/MPC6525A/Hardware%20Manual/MPC6515&6525A-Hardware%20Manual-V2.0.pdf "
There...
Have you measured the power at the stepper drivers ?
Best regards,
Walter
Just a thought:
Do you have other files loaded onto the laser controller as well ?
Such a laser controller has a very limited amount of memory.
Bitmap graphics needs a lot of memory, for a test...
Another option is to export to a "dxf" file, this should be readable by nearly every CNC CAM program even by AutoLaser.
Before exporting, make sure you do not have filled surfaces, only lines,...
The bigger problem i see at this picture is, that there is nothing connected to the limit switch connector ( on the right side of the pcb). Hopefully the signals of this connector are also available...
On our machine i can't got below 10% to have a reproducable / constant engraving.
At anything below about 10% the beam is sometimes very erratic.
Best regards,
Walter
It may depend on the Powersetting for a specific tube.
Simple CO2 glase Tubes have a (i call it) preignition range before they start producing a constant "full cycle" beam.
Depending on the...
