I would like to add a laser to my CNC gantry type router to do engraving.I am running Mach 3 SW.
Not new to CNC but I have not done any work with lasers. My goal would be to have
a laser system r that would engrave wood, leather and metal. Also, maybe cut out thin wood and plastic.
I am not sure on type of laser or strength required.
I have USB communications with extra pins and ports available.
Ideally a system that I could bolt on, plug in and do some engraving/cutting.
Then remove for "normal" router operations.
Any suggestions and advise would be appreciated.
Thanks
