Hi ... On flat surface both dots are connecting at same place once we place any ring on that area it is not connecting while rotating top head. How to know the exact engrave area of that. After pressing F1 it is showing on ring but after pressing F2 nothing engraved on that area. Means what to do for that. Please explain

If you get an open version like this I'd strongly recommend making an enclosed frame out of extrusion or similar and wearing fiber safe glasses when marking. We did this with ours and will be fitting a reed switch connected to a stop on the frame door. Apparently when you get hit by one of these in the eyes it feels like a hair dryer without the heat, and that's it. Vision gone instantly and permanently, unlike a CO2. I can't stress enough, don't use these without decent eye protection. Our 30 watt gives a 2mm deep engrave in aluminium in 5 or 6 hours. Much longer on steel as you have to leave it to cool periodically otherwise it will warp.

eBay sellers are either tied into or contracted sellers to shift a producer of the lasers they sell Amazon’s, Aliexpress etc are all basically the same. There are some drop seller type who have the online “store” on most if not all of the above, they sell the laser…the supplier or maker ships it out. So no matter the seller or the store, the laser is …usually…a quality product with factory support. A snag can apply where countries have a returns collector/ and hold new stock…returns can be “restored to factory a new batch of the inclusions and it can be sold as new!

There should be an attachment to help you find focal length easily. Like two lasers attached to either side of that head aimed to meet at focal length for the lens used. Otherwise, adjusting this focus every time the height of item being laser-marked changes will become tedious.

Hello Jeffery, thanks for the video, good demo. Although I already have a Co2 laser, I am just starting to look at fibre lasers to expand capabilities a bit. This has been helpful. I like the datum's that you have set up, but could I also suggest something that I used many years ago , on a YAG laser ( very expensive, with little options) , our company was manufacturing hundreds of different parts, which all had to be laser etched. This created a bottleneck at the laser, and fixture making to hold many parts also held us up. The solution was to locate a LEGO build base down on the table( MARKING AREA 110 MM x 110MM ) . The operators then built their own fixtures from LEGO bricks, simple snapping them down on the fixed base. Lego bricks are extremely accurate with 8 mm centres, The operators become very articulate, and were all up and running marking arrays of components very quickly. Just a thought.

@@justinhughes4722 Depending on what you are after. For just marking, you can buy one of those cheapest $1000 lasers with AOM Q-switched laser source, cheapest galvo (usually Sino Galvo branded) and the Lite version of EZCAD control card and software. I actually ended buying one constructed this way, at a higher price because it uses all best components but the paper specs are not very good, essentially I paid for the quality, not the performance. One step up, you can get those so called MOPA lasers, which allows you to control pulse width, which is very important for precisely controlling laser dose. This is needed if you need to engrave color on steel (by controlling the energy, thus controlling the localized heat, thus controlling the thickness of oxidation film, this controlling the interference wavelength and color), or to engrave black on aluminum, or to engrave pure white on plastic. This will run you from $2500 to much much higher, depending on the brand and power of the laser and galvo, plus building quality. The one I'm building form scratch has its laser source alone to be $3500+ (JPT gen 7, 30W, MOPA), and a $1500 German galvo scanner, and custom control card and power architecture. I'm building it for nano material processing, so cost is not a factor. For marking use, this is highly overkill, and I think for beginner if you don't care about color or steel/color on titanium, just get those $1000~$2000 Q-switched fiber lasers.

Easy Cad definitely does inches and mm. Depending on the version, the setting should be either in the "grid" settings, or next to the "grid" pulldown. Also, find out the focal distance, cut a piece of scrap to that distance, and use that as your height adjustment.
@jefferyj5 жыл бұрын
Are you able to export a sketch as a DXF from CAD software like Fusion 360 or Solidworks with your CAD document unit set as inches, then import that DXF into EzCad with proper scaling? This is where I ran into trouble. I can manually scale things in EzCad to inches, or I can set the system parameters to inches and draw directly in EzCad, but I can't successfully import an 'inch' DXF into EzCad without having to scale. For example: If I export a 1 inch square sketch as a DXF, then bring that into EzCad as a vector file while my EzCad system is in inches, it will come in as 0.039"x0.039" which seems like it's reading the DXF dimensions as MM regardless of the system settings and the DXF document settings. It's not a big deal, but if you can tell me what I'm missing that'd be great. I'm using version 2.14.2.

There is a feature in the software that can account for curvature, but it doesn't adjust the focal point of the laser. Some people use a larger lens like a 300x300 to get a wider marking angle so it's more forgiving on curved surfaces. This is often done to avoid using a rotary when marking cups.

Hi Jeffery, I watched a few of your videos now, Thank you. For my purposes, I think a 50w raycus fiber laser is probably what I need. I want to use it for aluminium but also carbon fiber composite. I note you've also tried the fiber laser with some different kinds of plastics. I have found a few people on youtube demonstrating the fiber laser cutting thin pieces of carbon fiber composite and wondering if you've ever tried this? Since I will be working with quite a bit of carbon fiber this is something I'd be really keen to use it with. I suspect it will do it, but probably needs quite a bit of trial and error and optimising to get a decent marking and cutting through 1mm. I'm not too worried about the quality of the cut finish as I can tidy that up. The main advantage is the ability to cut and mark the carbon fiber with much greater control offered by the fiber laser. If you've got any thoughts on this, I'd love to hear from you.

Hi! Thanks for this video! Can I just ask, how deep, or how thick can we engrave into an aluminum sheet? Can we also mark/engrave on brass or copper sheets?
@jefferyj5 жыл бұрын
Check out some of my other videos, I have one on copper and another on aluminum depth.

Thank you Jeffery for posting all your video's. I just ordered a 30w Raycus from china. I plan on using it to engrave on stainless jewelry. My question is, will I be able to get a deep engraving as well as black in color?
@jefferyj4 жыл бұрын
Yes, shouldn't be a problem. I made one or two videos on stainless marking w/ depth...check them out if you haven't.

Hi Jeffery, Can you show me how to install the driver. I'm not that computer savvy. i'm running windows 10. Supplier sent download file, but didn't explain how to apply it.

@@michaelbernard9433 Sure, turn on the main power switch to your machine (for me that's the key). Now press the power button for the BJJCZ board (that's my middle button). Ensure the laser's USB cable is connected to your computer. Your computer should detect that something has been connected, but it won't know what it is. Open the device manager in your computer and locate the BJJCZ device. Right click on it and manually install the driver from the location where you have your driver. After this you should be ready to open ezcad.

Hello and thank you for this video. I just bought the same device (vevor 20W) received on 01/13/2.I have just tested it and after 5 burning tests and a meal later, it does not work anymore there is no more power just the red laser.I am going to make a video for the seller, it seems that a lot of people are having a problem, a sudden drop in power with this kind of laser. (see the name of the ray source)

This particular vendor is horrible. My unit came with almost no packing material in the box and the laser had been banged around pretty bad. I had the same apparent problem. It turned out that the laser emitter (inside the arm) had been knocked out of alignment with the galvo head. I repaired it myself and it's working fine now.

Great video! As others have mentioned, not a lot of good info about these fiber lasers. Thanks for making this! Could this laser cut through 0.5mm metal? Such as a metal jar lid?
@jefferyj3 жыл бұрын
It's not great for cutting, really just for marking and engraving a bit - maybe to around 0.3mm.

Hi... I just got mine and have been told I need to ground it, because it generates quite a bit of static, even though in the UK all leads are earthed... Have you had to do anything along those lines i.e. connect the earth/ground red connector on the back of the unit. Thanks for all the videos... they are really helpful... they encouraged me to get my own.
@jefferyj4 жыл бұрын
I didn't do anything special to ground it as my plug is grounded as it sounds yours is also. I'm no expert though, it might be wise to do.
@WilliamShakour4 жыл бұрын
@@jefferyj Thanks for letting me know. Much appreciated. I did a continuity test on the socket earth pin and the 2 parts of the body and they seem connected. I have a feeling that the ground pin on the back of the machine is actually for surge protection.

cant see that software perfectly but if its Lasermark you can press F1 (red) to focus the laser height and once the red dot is on focus that will eliminate the need to test it on the fly

You can loosen the screws to trim little bit of your laser head to fit the parallels.
