Life got in the way and I ended up leaving this project on the bench for months.
I finally got back into it a few weeks back.
I swapped some linear bearings out for new ones, modified motor...
First run.
Was very late last night so one terrible video after quickly wiring up the steppers.

This is what is left of the Z Servo Label.
Sadly I can not read the model number off there and searching for the partial number I can find is not giving me any results on their webpage or via...
The cavity was milled out in 2d and then I attempted to add a texture to the bottom using a raster strategy.
When that failed I tried an offset strategy starting from the centre.
Whole die....
Hi,
I am at my wits end with this machine.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated, even if it's just suggestions as to what I should try next to troubleshoot.
When I send 2d cuts to the...

From what I understand, there are various methods used. Passive circulation is possible with highly heat conductive materials (copper/aluminium).
The "water" in the pipe closest to the heat source...

I bought a 70watt co2 for our company from a company called Golden laser in 2011. Still runs perfectly. Back then it cost us around $8000, they are cheaper by far now.

Hi,
You may have some luck with something like engravelab.
There is a 15 day fully functional trial on the site [emoji4]

I have taken the machine completely apart.
I used around 1l of degreaser and a high pressure sprayer on the frame and anything else that could get wet.
I then drilled and rethreaded some holes on...
Quick update.
Just about finished stripping the frame down to the bone for a very good cleaning and likely painting.
I am considering leaving the painting for now, stripping it again after 6...
Bits of the electronics I will likely reuse (limit switches and induction motor starting cap not in here).

Stripped all the old power supplies out of the controller yesterday, will use the 220v to 110v converter for the spindle that came with the machine and may use the Stepper motors supply for powering...
I tried getting it to run via engrave-lab trial but no luck.

Old crt monitor I've had for years. Obviously not part of the system.
Decided that enough is enough and started stripping...
You make pretty nice models :)
