cj chris- saw your videos- looks like you hooked up a stop to a metal plate. Seems like a nice positioning tool to have. Also router appeared to move pretty well- Are you using new steppers 381 oz ...

Hi Kustom: I met Camaster last year at the IWF in Atlanta. I was looking for a low end machine and saw the motion system moving around. I was looking at a Techno across the floor, but was taken by...

Been reading this thread in regards to HX lasers. Talked to Frank and am interested in a 1290. Pete S, did you get your laser yet? Is it up and running? Either you're too busy cutting stuff or things...

out of Ohio also does Synrad refills. I got a 100 watt Synrad 57-1 done that was no longer supported by Synrad. I think anything pre 1996 is not supported anymore. Was not cheap, but it's a good deal...

I've seen lasers posted in ebay, that go for roughly 1200 to 2000 with power supplies. You said that you got your 60 watt with optics and a beam expander for approx 1100. Did you get most of your...

Hey Signbloke. Hope you're making $ being busy! Thanks for the reply. What made you choose that company over others? Do they have a local rep in country? There seems to be quite a few companies...

You would need a small servo/ stepper than move up or down depending on equilibrium point. I've heard of pneumatic motion on the Z axis as well, but I've never seen the foot in action

There are contact height followers out there, but it probably requires slowing the feed speed compared to what you are used to. Haas laser has them as well as others. They are expensive, I think...

you should be able to cut at 15 to 20 ipm with a 30w. It will do it, just don't know exact feed speeds. You might get lucky and go 30 ipm

Thanks signbloke. 9mm MDF is impressive. What kind of feed speeds do you achieve with that thickness? I'm trying to cut hardwoods 7mm thick. It varies quite a bit by species what you can do. Have you...

Signbloke: It seems like the initial setup took a while to resolve. How many hours are you putting on the machine. Are you using it intermittently or are you running a fair amount of production thru...

DC glass tubed lasers out of Massachusetts

I don't have too much experience with glass tube lasers, they are alot more temperamental, if you don't have good cooling then they can easily break. The RF lasers are more durable. Most of the glass...

my experience is that it's better to slow the laser to the point that it will do it in one pass. Multi passes deflect the beam, and most of the energy will burn the edges of the wood as there is no...

most sealed beam lasers do not require a 1.5" lens. It depends on how far the laser is from the lens, but in most cases if the laser is less than 6 feet from the focal lens you should be able to use...

I will ask less questions in each post.

I want to know about the DingHong laser model DH1812. It uses a 500w to 2000w laser. I think it uses a fast axial flow laser. Is it made in China? Is it...

HKXY: Hello. I've been reading your posts with interest. On one of your posts, you listed 3 websites that looked to have nice machines. I think you are trying to suggest that people buy quality, and...

Well this is the forum(CNC Zone in general) where those brave souls risking their hard earned money for something unproven will test product support. This is a new thing developing. Direct retail...
