How much power does a 20W Chinese Fiber Laser Use?

[@zaprodk]

Since the power factor is not unity (1.0) the amp draw is not relevant. The Watt number would tell something more usable if looking at the /cost/ of running this.

Good job

[@X3onCZ]

Where i download that colours scheme? For test of all colours.

[@swp466]

So, it maxes out at about 293W of power draw. I have a 60W JPT MOPA on the way -- it will be interesting to see how that compares. I'm anticipating around 845W draw for the 60W (around 7A).

Whats is the consumption in kwh? Thankyou

[@yeorge1350]

Will you ever do a video on setting up and using the rotating attachment?

[@jefferyj]

I didn't buy the rotary, so probably not.

[@yeorge1350]

@@jefferyj I really do enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from just watching them. I do appreciate what you do. thank you

[@dag7311]

Does the fiber laser cutting produce a lot of metal dust in surroundings?

[@jefferyj]

Yes, it's best to use some kind of dust/fume extractor as well as an enclosure.

[@sorenac]

How do you like the 20w? Have you had any situations, where you thought "I should have gotten 30/50/60w"? 😁

[@boardstopia]

Is this still the machine you showed in your first video? I am interested in buying one of these machines. How much did yours cost? Would be a great help if you answered these questions for me! Thanks in advance!

[@jefferyj]

Yes, same machine. It cost $3325.

[@boardstopia]

@@jefferyj It seems like a good quality machine then! Thank you for answering! Does your machine have a brand name?

[@jefferyj]

@@boardstopia No brand, but the laser source inside is a Raycus.

[@boardstopia]

Would you recommend this laser? I'm looking to buy one but they almost all look the same. a.aliexpress.com/_UrSWw

@@boardstopia Hello Sir! If I can make a sugestion to you, I have bought already 4 fiberlaser machines from this factory in China. Quality is good, if you accept sugestion for little difference you can ask them to put JTP brand laser, little better than Raycus. The contact details are as follow: Doris Xing, Whatsapp/Wechat:[phone], [e-mail] Beside machine quality you will get a very good support. There are 15 years that I make business with China, we are a textile company, is the best aftersale suuport I ever get from a chinese company/ Hope I could help you with my suggestion.

Cool, how thick aluminium it can cut in one go? what is the cost of this laser and if you could send the link to buy it.

[@jefferyj]

In one pass...very thin. Basically aluminum foil. I bought it from ebay...If you buy from ebay, make sure to ask the seller beforehand if the laser has a genuine BJJCZ board.

HI, I HAVE A Q? IS THERE A WAY TO MAKE THE ELEKS ROTATE WORK WITH THE CHINESE 20W FIBER LASER, AND IF THERE IS A WAY PLEASE HELP ME TO DO IT THNX

[@manuabecassis]

Hi Jeffery first you motivated me to go for a fiber laser. Thanks I have a question if I take a 50w does it make sense to take 110 lense + 300mm ? We will be doing die and signs

[@jefferyj]

Yes, it's good to have a few sizes especially if you need a 300.

[@manuabecassis]

@@jefferyj thanks

[@jesusrangel4973]

What settings would you use to cut a piece of silver or gold from a 0.7 mm sheer

[@jefferyj]

That's deeper than i can easily get through. The spec on this laser is a max of 0.3mm depth...and that's with multiple passes.

[@JSAFIXIT]

That's actually really low power consumption. The exhaust system is the biggest power user I'd be willing to bet.

[@marcosgaspar9241]

Jeffery, hello! I am Marcos from Brazil ... I have the same machine as the same software. I would like to ask a great help. If you can provide a file of a drawing that needs to use different layers to deepen for example 0.30mm I thank you. I can not do this. The maximum area is 100mm my setting.

[@jefferyj]

You'll need to set up different hatches for each depth of your artwork. You may find it helpful to duplicate and overlap the artwork for more flexibility. I don't have any files on hand that do this at the moment.
