Best you contact Nolan at Thunder Laser I'd say. Always appears quite willing to help.
Have you tried Jorlink USA?
No power loss, Should cut through in one pass.
Try cutting at 1% speed, 100% power. I have a 60 watt Spirit and cut 3mm acrylic at 1.2% speed, 100% power. I can't remember the setting I used on my 25Watt GCC Mercury.
Well, I will give that a shot myself! Always good to have another string to your bow!
I wasn't aware that you could use Cermark on aluminium .If so, I would say that it would need much more power than 30 watts. The fact that the black mark that you achieved comes off easily is a good...
The Spirits have RF (Synrads) lasers in them as do most of their models. Some of the newer ones have glass tubes. Can't recall the model numbers. The shop I work part time in has a GCC Mercury 25w...
GCC are made in Taiwan, not Mainland China. They have been in operation at least 15 years and expanded their range into Chinese glass tubes as well. They are well supported throughout the world.

Brash statement. Let's face it, what a laser can do is down to the skills of the operator more than the machine, but I would imagine that there are many other brands that would leave your K40 in the...
Well, it's a problem I have never had, so can only make a couple of probably dumb suggestions. You should check vector sorting in the driver, then it will cut the inside vector first. Also try...
Did you take the laser out of focus and run a polishing path? That will make the engraving etch clear.
Sorry, no justspotted this recommendation on the Sawmill creek Laser forum.

I would say that the main problem is that your timber has too well defined grain. You will always get heavier burning on the resin. Apart from that, it looks fairly reasonable. I'm not familiar with...
Also check that the table is level.
Mirror alignment is very important to get 90 degree cuts. GCC Machines have 4 mirrors so the alignment is very critical.
I think that English is not Cinematic2's first language, so we can allow him some latitude as he obviously knows what he is talking about when it comes to lasers.
The obvious question is why can you not use a vinyl cutter?
I'm sorry, I have no experience with Chinese (DC) lasers, so I cannot answer your question. I had a 25watt LaserPro Mercury when I was in business and it would mostly do anything I required albeit...
Universal, along with Epilog, Trotec, LaserPro and some others have RF aircooled laser tubes which are generally more powerful than the equivalent wattage water cooled tubes. Therefore 25 watts from...
Nice edge!
GCC are a Taiwanese Brand. Gweike are Mainlaind China. No way they can easily be compared. I have read very little about problems with Trotec Speedys and their reliability appears to be more than...
I once read some advice on a laser forum, where the contributor (Rodney Gold - credit where credit's due!) suggested using strategically placed 10mm blocks of acrylic (plexiglass) to raise the...
Don't Trotec offer a rent to own own their Ray-jet Range?
Looks like French Script to me. OR maybe Typo Upright.
Check that the magnetic door switches are working. (light on the panel)
You probably get more answers on the Sawmill Creek Laser Forum for this particular laser.
