I work in the industry in Australia and I can assure you, there is.

I work with some of the biggest users of drives kin industry, anywhere from 0.75kw up to 630kw, with some sites having over 600...

Mactect is right, the input current on a single phase 240V drive is much higher than the output.

If the output is to be fully loaded, a dedicated circuit would be required, typically a 10A GPO...

Is anyone able to supply electrical schematics or other data? I could have a look and let you know if there's parts that can be changed to suit 240V single phase or 415V three phase. A transformer...

I would imagine this falls under mechanical engineering? I know an engineer probably 4 to 5 years out of uni now and he uses a lot of cad / cam in his work and projects. Worth contacting local TAFEs...

I disagree, circuit breakers are slower to react and are too easy to simply reset after they have tripped, assuming circuit breaker and fuse are correct rating for the load.

A fuse requires some...

This model laser cutter is generally nowhere near safe enough to use in a classroom environment.

Is there an interlock on the lid to shut off the laser if it is opened?

I guess you don't understand either?

heaps of those glowforge units out now too isn't there? oh wait... no... how many people have pulled the pin waiting on that dream to come true?

You already have a machine yes?

What stepper driver is fitted to the machine that you want to use to operate the rotary?

You need to look at your machine.

Provided your stepper driver can run the motor from their description:

NEMA23 stepper motor, 1.8degree, 2.2N.M 3.5A

Can't see why not.

What stepper driver have you got?

LED 14 blinks because the controller is working, this is NORMAL

if LED 14 was not blinking then you would possibly have an issue in the controller

we have the same machine

ground lead from the laser is wrapped around our tube, shouldn't be a problem

we cut 3mm acrylic at 7mm/s and 45% min and max power so I guess you are going too fast.

WP1 and WP2 are the water protect inputs, usually only 1 is used, does the LED for WP1 change state when water starts or stops flowing?

LED 14 blinking is completely normal, you need to check if water protect input is seeing water flow from the flow switch, if not then it will not fire the laser.
