hi all, just found this site and look forward to looking in regualary.

hi came across it while trying to find some advice on why our laser machine isn't cutting through.

We only had a new bulb about a month back so hoping it isn't that.

We have had the machine since August and had to replace the bulb about a month ago due to a blockage (all trial and error as a new user) but been really careful since having the new one fitted, fitter added to pump, water temperature checked regularly, and tilting to get rid of air bubble upon start up of machine.

Friday the machine stopped cutting through 3mm ply, alignment is spot on so counting that out, ive looked at the tub and on pressing test button the bulb lights up mauve all way across, should it be brighter (should it glow), could the lenses need replacing. Would really appreciate some advice before I go out and spend a fortune on parts it could not be. While the machine is down I am having to turn orders down and really need to sort the problem.

many thanks in advance.
