[@jamestammy]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I was sure that I had seen a previous video of your showing this device, but I haven’t been able to find this air assist mount after days of searching your website, KZbin, and Google. So, thank you for helping my sons and I. We are just starting this month with laser etching and 3D printing. Keep up the good work!

[@3dPrintCreator]

Lol, I have been testing iterations of this air assist for more than a month now, together with 4 other people. We all seem to have slightly different Master II machines. This version fits all of them.

[@Mariouanne]

Yesterday, 2021-feb-7th, i made these parts. They are very good looking. Tomorrow i will install them on my OLM2 machine and try to find a hose to bend the nozzle to shape. I will recommend when tried with air. Thanks to Brian the creator of these pieces.

[@bazmarc]

good timing, just received my pump today and was about to install it but found the model from 3DDIY was in the way of homing and such and hard to set the tube just right... I came here to get your design and saw this new improved model uploaded 13h ago :) it's printing now -- can't wait to try it... Danke and Happy New Year sir.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Happy New Year !!! And? How did you like it?

[@bazmarc]

@@3dPrintCreator brilliant design and oh my god what a difference air assist does. One thing i noticed is if i screw the 4 nutshell to tight it squeeze the carriage against the alu bar and prevent the x axis to move freely, a few washers would help but then the screws are not long enough. So i barely tighten the nuts and all is well. The bending of the nozzle went ok took two times to get it just perfect, for the second time i brought an espresso cup of boiling water up to my printer so i didn’t have to disassemble all the tubing tie wrapped in place. I cut plywood coaster 2.2mm at 400/80/5 so far seems to be my best settings on 20w laser. Would love to go faster but haven’t found a better setting yet. You say you run yours at 600 but what power and passes?

[@carlalbury5785]

I designed a knob that fits, compressed, over the head of an M4 screw that screws in, through 2 hex nuts installed in the slated openings on your latest air assist, to push the locking piece against the slider plate. It could be glued but the compression fit-up works fine.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Sounds great. :-)

[@3DJapan]

Very cool I'll have to print it. My Laser Master just arrived and I haven't set it up yet. I'm not sure I can afford a compressor right now but it's something to keep in mind.

Hi Phil, Please don't use an expensive compressor. It works very well with a 15 Dollar aquarium pump, as showed in the video.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Lol. I hope i have that influence on them.

[@merrillalbury8214]

My new laser master 2 with 20 watt laser with the air assist (and stock mount) hits the head of the screws on the x axis connection to motor when laser is all the way to the left and moving in the y direction. Added a 1mm washer behind the mounting plate, on all 4 screws, and that moved it out enough to prevent touching. I am going to inform Ortur of this.

[@3dPrintCreator]

That's a strange problem, I never heard it before. Glad to hear you fixed it.

[@merrillalbury8214]

Also changed out the wire sleeve from the stock ones to 10mm braded sleevs. They work better. The Laser Master 2 I received had the grounding mod included. The wire harness could use about 5mm more added to the length. I have quite a few adds. My 3d printer has come in handy.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Thanks for the compliment. Have a great New Year.

[@Voodoo_IC0N]

So, I ordered an Ortur. I downloaded your air assist and sent it to a friend who printed it up for me. Unfortunately when my laser arrived I was surprised to find that it is an upgraded fixed Focus laser that will no longer fit the mount provided in the 3D printed air assist. The laser is pre fitted with an adjustable slide for up and down adjustment.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Oh wauw, I never saw that change comming. I have asked the people from Ortur to sent me one. Very curious about that laser. I hope they will also start selling the 30 and 40 Watt lasers soon. They are also fixed focus.

[@jimginnyohio]

I printed it out...but I cannot get it to work correctly. A couple problems.... 1. The standard size air tube will not go completely into the sleeve for that. I can get it to go most of the way, but it gets hung up about a couple inches or so from the bottom where the print nozzle gets attached. The slot for the air tube needs to be a little bit wider so the tube can be inserted more easily. 2. The slide mechanism does not work since it contacts the laser circuit board and safety plate. Once installed on the laser, it will no longer slide up and down. It slides smoothly when not connected to the laser, but once installed, it no longer slides.

[@3dPrintCreator]

A standard size Air tube is exactly 6.00mm O.D. and the opening in the print is made at 6.3mm O.D. to compensate for the tolerance of the used printer. if your tolerance is more then 0.3mm, then you should first make sure you calibrate your printer before printing this air assist. It's an easy print but you will need a printer that is working correctly. I have printed it with my Ender 3 V2, the Anycibic Mega and the Artillery Genius printers and all without a problem. For the slide mechanism, I recognize your problem. Just unscrew the screws that hold the electronics and top plate for about 0.5mm and tighten them again when the laser is mounted. Problem solved.

[@beckerg04]

What airpumps do you suggest to use with a laser master 2 20w?

[@3dPrintCreator]

For any laser I would suggest an airpump that does not blow away your material, but is strong enough to blow ashes and smoke away. My simple aquarium airpump (mentioned in the video) has more than enough power to do so.

[@beckerg04]

Real talk, I tried a 700 gph pump that was crazy loud, I picked up a tetra100 and it seams to work fine but people say it should cut out atleast 2+ passes and it certainly doesnt do that.

[@TheCalibso]

Thanks, now I know why we need air nozzle.

[@saschasehling90]

Hey Brian, at first, thank you for your great design. It is the best air assist which i see. But i have small problem with the fixing. The screw hold the slider in the possition, but at the buttom, is slacks a little bit to the right and left. Is it possible that you add a second clamping srew to the bottom of the part? Then it is not only secured at the top. I can send you a picture if you don't know what i mean.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi, thanks for your message. I understand what you mean, but I don't think it's necessary, provided the printer you used for it is properly set up. When I look at the prints that I have made on different printers, I have no play anywhere in the carriage, because the gap used is 0.2mm, which is just enough to allow the carriage to move, but already so tight that it does not slide down by itself due to the weight of the laser.

[@saschasehling90]

Thanks for you reply. I have scaled the slider part to 101% but i think a second srew will be better for me. Can you provide the source file? I'm also a 3d Designer with Inventor and Siemens NX and can make the moddify by myself. A complete new drawing or moddifying of the stl file take more time.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Sorry, I don't share the source files as I have very bad experiences with that. People were using my designs to slightly modify them and sell product and profit from it, while I share it for free.

Questions: Can it not be designed to have the bend already in it? Can you just make a small hole. At the end so you don't need a nozzle?

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi Phil, good question. I have been testing that in the first models I designed, the tube was already bent in the print, but this had two major drawbacks: For starters, the angle is not the same for every type of lens under the laser. With one lens you have to focus at a distance of 37mm, with another lens model you have to focus at more than 55mm. This means that the angle should be different for these models. This by itself is no problem, I could have designed two models. The second problem is that there is very little room for the pipe down, and you want a strong airflow. Preferably you want to push the silicone hose completely against the brass or metal nozzle, and also make sure that this connection is firmly attached by pressure fitting it. In addition, you only want to determine the opening of the nozzle (1mm is a very nice opening) at the very last part of the pipe, so in the nozzle. By bending the pipe during printing, it is no longer possible to get the silicone hose all the way to the nozzle, causing air to leak through the PLA (or other material) print, which means a loss in air pressure. By bending the pipe afterward, if the silicone tube is already in it, this silicone tube will also remain in place. The result in this model is that the air pressure only needs to be very low so that a simple aquarium air pump provides sufficient air pressure. I myself work with an air pump that only moves 150 liters of air per hour. These types of pumps are very quiet and inexpensive. If I were to bridge the entire length with a printed pipe, it would leak a lot of air, because 3D prints are not airtight (not even watertight), requiring pumps with a capacity of 800 liters per hour or more to get the same air pressure at the nozzle.

[@3DJapan]

@@3dPrintCreator Thanks for all the info. I bought an aquarium pump on Amazon for $5 and some hose at the local pet store for $4. Just need to buy a nozzle. I have a new printer to set up on my channel soon so I think I'll print it on that.

[@merrillalbury8214]

A couple of things: 1. I had to enlarge the channel for the 6mm hole, this included some adjustment (about 3-4mm wider of the extended part of the plate.. I measured it, as printed, and it measured 6.4mm ID and the tube should have slid in OK but it would not go past the first curve. The tube measured plastic air tube measured 6 mm exactly. 2. I designed a template that helps to make the bend just right to blow on the focal point of the laser. 3. I used a 3mm hex head screw and two hex nuts for the slide lock. 4. The small piece (lock) for some reason, does not download as the correct size. May be my Windows 3D builder software as i have had the same problem with other downloaded pieces. I measured the slot and adjusted the file to fit and printed it. I then put it in place and used pliers to press it into place after a little sanding. I inserted the slider and worked the locking screw and it worked fine. 5. Used my pliers to twist in my .6mm nozzle the first time. Good snug fit. 6. 100 C (180 F) water works fine to bend PLA after about 10 seconds. Used my templates with hose and nozzle installed as recommended and had NO splitting. If you desire, I can download the template that I designed to make the bend correctly (plus the information as to how it should be used. I have an air pump I bought on Amazon (Pawfly MA-60 Super Silent Air Pump). 2.0 Watt power, 1.8L/min air flow, 0.012 Mpa air flow pressure. It has a 60" (183 Cm) 6mm hose OD 4mm ID. Since I just received the Laser Master 2, I have not fully assembled it as I wanted to get any mods ready/printed prior to assembly. The delivery from Ali Express took 5 days from China and it cam with the new grounding mod included. It was a package deal which included a 20 Watt Laser and the YRR Roller assembly (noted that the routing of the belt on this was updated to make sure there was a clear end so long items could fit on the rollers. This was a mod suggested by another KZbinr (so the manufacturer is watching - impressive). All items came from Ortur, no clones. Have also designed leg spacers so that I can set the printer frame for regular burning and then easily raise it above any anticipated items that are taller then the approximately 40mm of Z axis lift or when using the YRR Roller item. Thought of sessor lifts, etc but this is simple, easily printed on my 3D printer and I can always print more if needed.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi, Sorry for the late answer, I have been a bit sick the past weeks. (no Corona). 1> This must be something with your printer calibration. A lot of people have printed it already and this is the first time I hear this. 2> If people have the same combination of laser and lens, that is a very good thing to have. Yet, I like to have the flexibility to adjust the angle to the focal point I use with any combination. 3> Great solution !!! 4> I am sure it downloads fine, but your settings in the software are finding the part too small, therefore they change the units to inches. This is a common problem with small STL parts 5> Great :-) 6> At 100 degrees Celcius, there is a big chance that the material is not heated up all the way to the middle, and also it's possible to overheat the part. The way I show it in the video is a good way to be save and not overheat the part. You can leave the part in for 5 minutes without a problem. 7> Oh wait, there is no 7 :-) The package deal is a good deal, I love it. Ortur has sure watched my video's and even contacted me multiple times. There are more goodies on the way to test in the next weeks.

[@Azun4i]

@@3dPrintCreator Considering 2), how in the world did you manage to get a correct bend. i have tried this 10 times now... doesnt make it easier that tube reverts to its printed form o neach heatup :/

[@3dPrintCreator]

When using water that is not too hot, you can bend the print and keep it in place until the part is hard again.

[@TheQbigfish]

what if you just use a fan to place next to the laser, blowing the smoke/ash away from you, out the door/area you are working at. Great information! I really appreciate your content!

[@3dPrintCreator]

A fan would really do a lot, but not enough. You will need a nozzle, to blow the air in the gap you created with the laser to remove the ash from that gap. Using a fan wouldn't remove the ash, using compressed air and a nozzle however, works great.

[@armwrestling_nerd]

What would be cool is a video showing you cutting parts to create an air blower add-on to the laser machine. I know you did a 3D printed add-on to hold the air blower, but it would be cool to se an Ortur laser master only modification process by cuttin plywood parts and some gluing and varnish job.

[@3dPrintCreator]

I have tried that, but since you can only cut about 3mm deep, it's very difficult to make an air assist that can be working that is only made with a laser cutter.

[@armwrestling_nerd]

@@3dPrintCreator how about cut very thin sheets then glue together several layers together? I've gotten the ortur laser master1 15W just recently. I have no barn to run it so meet to encase this somehow : I got 3 stacked IKEA lack tables and have put the laser in the middle table. I will put walls and seal this. I got a hailea aquarium pump for air assist, HEPA filter and a filter drum with activated charcoal. Only thing missing right now is 100mm air vent tubes and a fan (outside the casing) to create positive pressure in the casing to drive smoke through the charcoal drum and HEPA filter (also outside "on the other side"). I don't know if this will be enough to remove all fumes. I also hope to create a directed flow from the air assist to make a venturi effect drawing smoke into the filter drum avoiding smoke dilution in the encasing as much as possible. If this doesn't work I might add gas mask cartridges that do filter gasses. In that case I hope to be able to drive the air assist and a vacuum aspirator connected to it to get enough suction to move gas through the cartridge(s).

[@StigOEstvang]

Why not extend the plate to the bottom of the laser so it is possible to use the bottom mounting holes as well? On my laser module one of the top mounting holes had bad threads, so I had to cut out a new, longer mounting plate so I could use the bottom holes as well.

[@3dPrintCreator]

When sliding up and down, in the downward position the plate hits the motor connector when homing. In the designed plate there is even a small cut because of this.

Hi Brian, great design(s) but unfortunately as you know Ortur have changed the design again for the LM2Pro! Do you intend another re-design?

[@3dPrintCreator]

Not as long as I don't have the newer model. I need to have it in my hands to do the measurements and create a new iteration of the Air Assist.

[@PeterScargill]

I just downloaded and generated the Z-Axis adjust for the Ortur Laser Master 2 Pro - but it SEEMS that it dows not fit the Pro - the large mounting holes are all wrong. I'm quite able to print one out on my AnyCubic and the one I printed looks and works well in my hand- but unless I'm missing something - it will not fit the LM2Pro - I don't suppose you've done a version for the latter? The engraver itself is lovely but the Z-adjuster is awful. Pete

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi Pete, The Ortur Laser Master 2 PRO is a different machine from the non PRO version. The lasers have a complete different shape and also the mechanism to mount the laser is different on the PRO version. Maybe in the future I will also make an Air Assist for the PRO, but that depends on how many other people are going to make things for it.

[@nalaunobelmoura4000]

Hi, which pump do you use for air assist? What's the specifications of the pump/compressor?

[@3dPrintCreator]

As mentioned in the video and the description of the video, it's an aquarium pump that moves 150 liters per hour. Costs about 15 dollars or Euro's.

[@richardwarner1373]

hi Brian, if you could do your next design with a screw at the top which passes through the fixed part then through a nut in the sliding part it would make it easy to focus the laser using the position of the laser rather than having to try to use the focus ring on the laser module.if you could do that i think that one would be the best ever

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi Richard, Sorry, but that will not happen. The reason is that Ortur now ships the lasers with a sliding mechanism as a standard, and what you are requesting is also something that already exists. Making it that way, would infringe copyrights and that is not something I want to do, as the thing you request is a commercial sold product. Sorry.

[@3dPrintCreator]

The program controls the laser via GRBL commands. The air assist is controlled manually.

[@GACWaremme]

Nice tuning. Did you think having the screw vertical to adjust the z axis by un-screwing? Is that air pump system better than an air fan ?

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi, I did not think of the Z axis to be moved up and down using a screw. Yet, another person did and I think it's pretty clever. The airpump differs from the fan principle in a way that a pump can generate compression and a fan can't. The air that flows out of the nozzle has a high flow rate and is capable of blowing smoke and dust away from the material you are engraving. One of my first designs I made worked with a radial fan, and wasn't comparable to the air pump system.

[@vegardjakobsen5243]

What air assist can i use on the fixed focus laser?

In the video you mention the specs for the nozzle and have it displayed in text. The voice says V2 6mm and the text on the video says V6 6mm. I am wondering if V6 is correct. I am also wondering if it it is supposed to be .6mm as I am finding no nozzles at 6mm (which seems quite high). Thank you very much for your creative and helpful work and for sharing it with others.

[@GiGasDK]

I am using a standard 6mm 0,4 nozzel - some drill them to 1mm but think the point are to remove smoke from the focal point. Depending on the air pump volume l/m change to nozzle can preform different. This is not spacesience but in fact an great improvement to any laser engraver/cutter.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi. When I was speaking I made a mistake, therefore I wrote it on the screen in the edit. The nozzle has to be one with a 6mm thread, that's the only real important thing. The opening I choose, is a 1mm opening, but this can be 0.4 up to 2mm, depending on the volume your air pump is capable of pumping. Because the nozzle i Used is an E3D V6 nozzle, that's the one I mentioned, but most nozzles you can find online are compatible.

Very smart!! I would definitely promote it if I had such a laser. Why didn’t you already construct the nozzle part in a curved orientation? Is the smell of the burnt wood quite strong? Are you always keeping the window open when you are using the laser?

[@3dPrintCreator]

Hi Cat, When it is curved in that orientation, you need to print the part with support and the hose can't be pushed in all the way to the nozzle without leaking air. The way it is made now, makes sure the hose stays in place and the nozzle points directly at the point you want it to point at, no matter what distance you need between the nozzle and the lens. The smell of a laser is no fun at all. I only have it in my house when I am filming for KZbin. The laser is used in the Shed when I am not filming.

What's not better is how can we get your air assist system. Just give us a simple address where you take a credit card and I'll buy one now.

Before I came to the end result where I am now, I made dozens of models. I have tested them piece by piece, and from some models I made videos that I have shared with my viewers. I have worked on the models for days, or even weeks, and even at the moment I am already testing for a new model, because Ortur has made changes to the design of the laser. I have shared all models that I made for free on the internet, and when I noticed that my models were stolen to be sold, I made work of it, because everyone must have free access to it. The only thing I ask people to do themselves is to print the model itself on a 3D printer, or having it printed at a local maker Space. So, I am sorry, but you will have to put in a little effort yourself because I am not out here to earn your money from your credit card. I am just sharing my thoughts and products for fun.

@@3dPrintCreator Thank you!! I know how that you have put lots of hours designing it and making prototypes to ultimately make this beauty.

I see a flaw. The heat from the lazer will eventually warp the 3D plastic. The acrylic mount has a higher heat tolerance than the plastics you are using.

[@3dPrintCreator]

After hours of engraving pictures the big cooling rib around the laser gets about 5 degrees warmer than it was before the laser job started. Far within the tolerances for PLA plastics. I have not got the housing warmer than 28 degrees.

Thank you for your video and for the free file, but I do not like your title to this video, as it is misleading. A 3D printer to make it is not free. May I suggest a title change? That being suggested, I really do enjoy your insightful videos.

[@3dPrintCreator]

Thanks for the compliment. I once received a free car from my work, and had to pay for the gasoline myself. That was frustrating too.

[@luckettg]

3d Print Creator Perhaps simply adding File after the Free? Would you consider making and selling an air assist to me?

[@3dPrintCreator]

Sorry, but no. As mentioned in the description of the video, I am a very busy person and I don't have time to do commission work. There are maker spaces all over the world though. They can print the files for you.

[@tomkuneman9139]

Thanks, great video. I printed mine for free

[@luckettg]

Tom Kuneman Good to hear of. How was that done, for free?
