I picked up this laser a few weeks ago as my first laser. It's been working really well for myself and I've made a handful of things as gifts for friends and family. I don't know 100% what I'm doing but your other videos have helped me greatly.

I just got one , I put it together in under an hour, I didn’t use the instructions but twice , I watched about 4 different videos to cross reference because there is no one video answer anywhere on the www for putting this thing together, I am a master tinkerer so putting things together for me is less of a challenge than the average joe , my biggest challenge is going to be getting this thing programmed and getting the feel and knowing its capacity 😀🤘🏼

They have an excellent assembly video David (linked in the description). If you're using Lightburn, nothing needs to be changed except the X&Y max speed. Super simple setup and flawless Gcode on the controller.

FINALLY! Someone who explains what they are doing along with the video!!! THANK YOU THANK U!

Hello again Rich... I enjoyed watching this video of the TTS 55 Diode. I commented yesterday on the Universal Test Card (Ver. 8) about just using portions of this test for engraving because I don't want to cut with my laser. But after watching this review, when I get to the cutting point, this will be a laser I would seriously consider! Thanks again for all you do with these tutorials for newbies such as myself.

Cool, thanks Jim! Yeah I was a bit shocked at the quality of the lens and the diode for such a budget machine!

When I assembled my TTS 55 Diode Laser I found it much easier to put the X-axis belt onto the synchronous pully BEFORE fastening the X-axis beam to the Y-axis left frame. That is, do the top of page 13 of the manual before doing the bottom of page 12.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Thanks for the tip Jeff!

[@glennmartonic6376]

one of the better reviews on this laser.....no BS....just honesty....1 note about this laser.....have seen comments (many i might say) on longevity of laser over time....great power out of the box (as you mentioned), but degrades faster than the others ( xtool, ortur, atomstack, etc,etc,etc)..... maybe they are running 100% power?......granted this is only in the $200-250 range, but having to replace the module soon....???? IDK.....that would be a pain... so all in all, great review.....it's not up there with the big boys....but neither is its pricetag.

[@brettvk4bde]

Hey Rich love your videos they have helped me heaps. I have the TTS-55 laser and i have added limit switches and works very well. I have my list of settings which do work very well. Which 5.5w library did you use was it the Ortur laser file on your website. Thanks again.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

I've used all of the 20W (5.5W optical) libraries on my forum. They're all just manufacturer suggestions that I made into digital libraries.

[@shortsbyRemco]

great love for your work, nice educational videos, unfortunately I'm still fumbling to cut 3.5 plywood, I do have a different head on the totem 5.5 maybe the height has something to do with it

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

5W lasers require a couple of passes.

[@ememeable]

Thankyou Merry Christmas 💕 Ejike

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Same to you!

[@OldCurmudgeon3DP]

The focal diameter makes a big difference. Similar to the inverse-square law. The W/sq-mm goes up by 4 if you cut the radius in half if I did the math correctly. That focus knob should be standard. (shameless plug) I made one for the Z1 over on Cults.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Absolutely! When I bought the Z-mount for the Ortur Pro, the cutting ability increased by 1+mm.

[@poti2875]

can't wait for mine to arrive, but the one i ordered was a tts 55 pro. i just don't know the difference between that and the pro. :D

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

I don't know either!

[@nikkicarriveau4350]

ok i have watched but im still having trouble on cutting. how do you make it cut. Im using the free software. Would it be easier to just pay for the other software.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

You cut in line mode. The free trial is the same as the paid version.

[@umbette]

Hi Rich, will you populate your lightburn library with the settings for this laser?

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Well I think you can use any of the 5.5W libraries Umberto. Just edit it as you go. I would reduce the power by 15% to start.

[@jessw6930]

Hi, do you have a video of the device settings, settings, and machine settings for lightburn for this laser? Every one that I’ve seen has been different. Also, how long did it take for the eagle to burn?

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

No, sorry, I don't Jess, and I don't really remember how long it took.

[@adityasuri999]

I was searching for a laser engraver for etching pcb. I saw a video of a person spray painting a pcb and just engraving the paint until copper can be seen I was wondering if it could be done with this machine. Of course it can do that but I wanted to to know if this machine could engrave materials leaving a 8mil or 10 mil gap in between them for the traces. I live in India and it is cheaper here than the USA it goes for 207 USD including shipping charges.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

I really can't answer that since I'm unfamiliar with the material.

[@bigcrazyal5560]

What are your settings for cutting the acrylic? I've tried 90 speed 100 power 3 passes on a sheet of clear acrylic less than 2mm and it just cuts barely etches the line i'm trying to cut. am I missing something here? I have like a little honeycomb bet I bought to hold the work items. thanks in advance for any insight. using lightburn.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

If it's a diode laser, it can't cut clear or light colored acrylic.

[@bigcrazyal5560]

@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy thanks for the info, was driving me crazy, now i just need to figure out how to cut wood, i've got like 2mm piece of cheap hobby plywood and i can't seem to get the settings right to cut, i've slowed down all the way to 5mm per sec @ 100 power and it still can't cut through with like 6 passes. I used the gauge provided with the machine. they game me a black one and the aluminum one. the black gauge is supposed to be used according to my manual. any help or getting steered in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. maybe there is a video on how to make sure your focused? thanks again

[@lylebrown6132]

do you use the clear plastic to focus from or the laser head?

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Clear plastic? No, I use the tool that came with the laser.

Great review, question do you think this will cut say 297gsm cardstock on top of 3/16 up to 1/2" foam board. My goal it to print my design on cardstock or thinner sticker sheet then attach/adhesive it to foam board and looking for something that will cut along the border and through all layers of my image. Thanks for the response.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Yes it will Paul, but with foam board you have to run multiple passes at a much lower power and higher speed to keep it from melting. It also depends on the color of the board. Darker is best.

[@PaulJarrett]

@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy excellent. I plan on using black foam board I purchased from hobby lobby. Thanks for the response been watching many reviews and sometimes it's overwhelming.

Can someone please help me I’m new to the laser , my laser part has an orange bottom to it the red plastic shield does not stick to it , am I surposed remove the bottom of laser ? I see some people videos with orange part on bottom and I see others without it and the shield

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

The shield is a personal preference and has nothing to do with the actual engraving. It's there to help protect your eyes and the eyes of others, like children and pets. You could just wear the glasses if the shield is broken, which you always should do anyway. But I personally would never use a laser with anyone else in the room.

I think you want a fiber laser for that.

[@Petardozord]

I've bought it after this presentation. Works amazing, the only issue is that - there's no definied start point. So You need to make test run on cheap papper/waste material to know where the patter will appear. Quite problematic when you need precision placement or cutand have one attemtp.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

You can define the starting point on any laser.

[@Petardozord]

@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy In each 3d printer which i have, there's ceratin "home position" (0x and 0y) where printer goes back to after work and you can calibrate it. here you can set where home is. There's not definied home position by hardware. More over if file is alrger than 30 cm the laser and mortor continue to work like nothing happens - they stuck at the edge and move in place and they continue drawing pattern while stuck at the back rail. There's not "limit switches". So bascially machine doesn't know where it is. But not that huge issue form me I just want cut wooden parts. And it works great.

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

The machine always knows where it is if you don't move it by hand and power it on in the 0/0 position. If you watch this video starting at the 4 min mark, I show how to set a home position with a laser with no limit switches. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4qxonx7mchgZqs

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

And, if you wish the laser to return to the Home position after a job, simply click on Set Finish Position on the Move tab, or you can go into the Device Settings and define your own finish position.
