Fiber Laser Unboxing

I just added a new toy to the shop! Here I am unboxing a 30w split fiber laser from OMTech Lasers. Up to this point all of my laser experience has exclusively been with Co2 lasers and the fiber will be a new adventure and open up new product lines. I was suprised at how easy it was to set this up and get going. The biggest hurdle will be dialing in settings for the new material I will be working with.

Congrats on the new fiber laser. They are a lot of fun. Something to keep in mind is that if you plan to do any engraving with it you really need a good exhaust as the particles it throws off are super tiny and can be very dangerous to your lungs.

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

Yep! I am working on setting that up now!

[@Webnicity]

Good to know, thanks

[@PopsCustomSignsLLC]

Leaving the lens on and laughing at yourself.....loved it. Great video. I'm waiting on my 80w Mopa to arrive as I type this.

[@ASHLEYSMITH0727]

Awesome !!! I would have probably done the same thing with the. lens and started panicking. Just ordered mine tonight so, I am trying to watch all of the "Laserguys" setups and info videos while I *impatiently* wait mine to arrive. learn all that I can now, so I can convert from the CO2 with as much "ease" as possible ! Thank you for the video !

[@Webnicity]

Just ordered one. Your video is quite helpful in showing me what to expect when my machine arrives. Thanks much!

[@parpadad]

thanks for the video. I am just about to get started and this gave me a heads up on what to expect.

[@brocklewis8854]

That is awesome. Getting my CO2 OMTech today and will be doing the air assist upgrade right from the beginning.

Who is your question directed to and about which machine?

Bonjour , pouvez vous maider svp jai la machine mais impossible d'installer les pilotes Universal car je ne lai pas sur la clé usb fourni avez vous un lien où je pourrai télécharger tout ce qu'il faut piur la machine svp merci beaucoup

[@thogg4]

Should I be able to cut through anything high fiber with this? I am having trouble with beans and broccoli.

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

Triscits are better because the are nice and flat.

[@karenpreston-e5f]

Thank you for this video! Have you moved over to Lightburn now that it is available for the fiber machines?

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

Yes all of my machines are on lightburn. Check out my coin video.

Hey can this Machine cut stainless steel metal and what the price

[@Johnstonfamily2012]

My drivers won’t install for my 50w OMTech engraving laser. Fixing to package it back up and ship it back

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

The drivers installing has nothing to do with the actual laser. Are you trying to use ezcad or lightburn

[@Johnstonfamily2012]

@@BeardedBuildsCo LightBurn

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

@@Johnstonfamily2012 did you check the box on the driver install screen during the lightburn install?

[@Johnstonfamily2012]

@@BeardedBuildsCo not sure honestly, every time I try to install drivers it says there’s not a signature card for the driver

can it be used on a painted clear or white acrylic to give that backlight panel?

[@seanwright5850]

OM Tech is out of stock of the 80mm Rotary device. There are many online through EBAY. Would they work with this unit?

[@theoriginalwoodchuck]

Hi. Does it print just as well all the way up to the 7.8" maximum? I have something that's real close to that that needs this laser. I don't want to have to get the larger one. Thanks!

[@amandawhitis8788]

Have you attempted wood engraving yet? What parameters did you use?

[@CustomizeYoLife]

Hello do you know which rotary tool would go with it? Thanks Shar

[@BobBeatski71]

Did that mains lead really have male pins on both ends ????

[@katslod2]

Great video. I really want one of these myself, but my main roadblock is what do you do to exhaust fumes?

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

The fumes on this are much less than a Co2 and wood. Most people will set up an inline fan and have set a duct next to the fiber work space to pull the fumes.

[@steinbierz]

Nice video! I have just recently begun my study of both CO2 and Fiber lasers as I would like to add both to my shop.I was curious if you could have made the business card the other way to where it kept your beard black and everything else was lighter? I have a company logo that I would probably want to play with to see which part would be better to engrave.

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

Yep all you would need to do is add and offset or and outer circle and it will invert the design.

[@عبدالسلامدهمان]

Can I do this and print on mobile covers

[@Yukam1912]

Do u think u should have got a mopa?

Hi i am from India i want this machine please guide me and price?

[@isozero7265]

Were you unhappy with your 30watt if within a year you upgraded to the 100 watt MOPA?

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

The 30w was great for learning and getting started. I did find that I wanted to do colors and wanted to get deeper engravings. This is where the 100w MOPA came in. If I was to buy a starter machine again I would have done a 50w or higher. The 100w MOPA is also part of a collaboration that I am doing with OMTech.

[@jellocity708]

The usb doesn’t show up I’m my device manager, does that mean it’s good to go?

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

Is the machine on? Does it connect to the software?

[@arvindchitara323]

Price?

[@SDSSTUDY]

does this work with different software, if so what software?

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

Ezcad2 and lightburn

[@carymartz8762]

Ha, there are 8000 results for metal business cards on Etsy. What is the actual way one could make money with a laser marker?

[@BeardedBuildsCo]

How I make money. I put in the work and network with businesses. I mark flashlights, wallets, bracelets, all kinds of promo items for them or gifts for there employees. I don’t make any metal business cards.
