Howdy, All.
I have a 30-watt Epilog Zing CO-2 laser that I love. This morning I cut some Acrylic around 1/4" (6 mm) thick. It cut beautifully.
About three hours later, I cut the same sheet of Acrylic with the Epilog and it suddenly won't cut through. I tried it several times. Won't cut through.
I'm new to laser cutting, but my first thought was to clean all the lenses and mirrors. Would that be the best place to start, or should I be looking elsewhere? Again, I'm a novice.
BTW, here are the settings I used:
SPEED: 50%
POWER: 100%
FREQ: Tried both 2500 and 5000
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
