    We have a K40 laser in the office with ventilation of the housing. It is quite miserable. At home I attached a 40W diode laser to a MPCNC. Instead of putting the whole CNC in a housing I attached the ventilation hose directly to the Z-axis near the laser - so the smoke is sucked directly away and through the window out of my room. The idea with the camera is great, thanks 😀

    Thank you for the list, most are already on my Wishlist. In evaluating the Z-axis adjustment, I watched a video claiming that the added mass (weight) of the Ortur z-axis caused the laser to overshoot the intended stopping point. I imagine that this would occur when stopping form a fast white space skip back to burn speed. Have you experienced this?

  • @The3DPrintingZone

    I haven't seen any difference in performance, no, but I suspect that's because the added weight is so minimal with these prints. Two light pieces of plastic with a 20% infill don't add up too much. It's always a good idea to test, of course, but I didn't have any troubles.

    The kits they sell these days make that one of the easier parts, actually. Almost all LED light strips have adhesive backs and you can use a hot glue gun if that's not strong enough. They usually come with either a remote or even a full smart phone integration as well so it's just a matter of plugging it in and then sticking it around the inside of the enclosure. Even if you're not using an enclosure you can rig up something with some coat hangers or boards to give them a place to mount to. Is that the kind of info you're looking for? If not, let me know and I'll do my best to help.

    To my knowledge, they both use the same laser - a 5500mW diode. You CAN cut 4-5mm ply with it but it's not quick and will require quite a few passes and probably air assist. Cutting 3mm can be difficult with this laser. A Co2 laser will be a lot more powerful for those types of thicknesses.

  • @minipaintingforyou
    @minipaintingforyou2 жыл бұрын

    @12:20 some of the safety features are a bit… unreliable on my Ortur. For starters I couldn’t even use half the speed they advertise, as the bump protection would trigger on fast acceleration - wouldn’t even show a legible error message. And yes, that even happened when the device was mounted, using completely snug fitting feet, onto a 600x800x20mm sheet of plywood with the rest of my enclosure attached. Tech support’s solution, after weeks of discussions and mostly waiting, was sending instructions how to lower the sensitivity. I‘m fine with that, although it was a pain to get their response. Much worse, the fire detection is getting triggered by UV light, as in the babycam I repurposed to monitor the cut (nightvision mode uses UV and switches on automatically in low light condition) or even irregularly by my LED room lighting. Ortur‘s response? Sending instructions on how to disable that fire alarm. Why would I want to disable that, if it was a chief feature that made me buy the thing?!? My solution: replacing the LED lights with an incandescent bulb. In addition I lined the machine‘s enclosure with an LED strip, that is set to a warm orange tone - prevents the babycam from switching to night vision and does not trigger the alarm by itself. Still, on some cuts the alarm went off when the laser passed close by the sensor on the backside of the control unit. Whenever this happens I block the sensor with a piece of cardboard so I don’t need to switch it off entirely. And when it comes to the emergency stop button… it does stop the machine. However I did have the laser fire upon some freak error, where the button was locked in the off position and the machine decided to switch it on all by itself. I‘m glad I installed a switch that kills power to the whole enclosure. Was meant for convenience but worked as an actual safety feature then =D Don‘t get me wrong, I like the results the machine gets me, both cutting and engraving 4mm plywood and genuine leather quite easily, but the time and money spent to get their was an issue. Your points were well presented, none of it was new to me though, unfortunately. I haven’t had the time to get an air assist going and I don’t know if that extra camera to check the underside is really necessary. I just cut at least one pass more than would strictly be necessary and then slightly tap on the pieces, to see if they are moving or not, without moving anything out of zero. But I agree that the z-axis slider, enclosure, ventilation and eye protection upgrades are essential. Contrary to what you showed here, I built my enclosure with only a single see through (but filtering the laser’s blue light) panel on top, everything else is solid. That way I don‘t need to wear eye protection in the room while the machine is running. Coherent laser light be dangerous, yo! If I sum up everything I paid to get to the current state, I probably doubled the price of the machine, even without the camera that I had gathering dust anyway. Thank you for sharing!

    You’ll have to take that one up with the author of the file but if you check the comments I think it says you have to increase the scale by 10 X.

    Why do you have tape on the flame detector light? If you are trying to disable the flame detector (a must if you are doing cutting because that damned thing sees "fire" every time I try to cut even a 1.5 mm piece of wood) you have to put a piece of tape over the detector on the back of the control panel. Putting tape over the light doesn't do anything except keep you from seeing the light when the fire alarm beeper goes off. Or did I miss something there?

    Haha! That makes a lot more sense. For some reason, the tape over the light thing did seem to help but maybe that was my imagination. Yes, I was trying to disable the flame detector because I struggled with it going off too much. Thanks for the tip on how to handle that.

    @@The3DPrintingZone haha... Yep, it was a placebo affect. The light bulb controls nothing. There is a little black "bulb" extruded on the rear of the board. That's the sensor. Tape over it. I just got my Otur put together and burning a grid on my board now. Takes about 6 hours just to do the first vertical lines at speed of 4000. Then I've got to do the horizontal tomorrow.

    @@The3DPrintingZone I kept getting the alarm even with the sensor covered with blue painter's tape so I got to wondering if there was a sensor in the light also. So like you I covered it for a test. Still got the alarm. Come to find out blue painter's tape is translucent. so with the sun coming in my window (UV triggers it) it was seeing sunlight and shutting off. So I found this code you can type into the console to turn it off (disable the fire alarm). Flame sensor can be disabled by using $261=0 in console. Hope that helps. The new firmware upgrade 1.87 is supposed to have the flame sensor disabled by default now. I just upgraded it today will have to watch it and see if it comes on when the sun it on it.

    I see your think you taped off the fire alarm. But the thing on top you taped off is the alarm. Not the sensor. The sensor is a black LED on the back facing the laser.

    Why would you want to maintain the flame? You said that when highlighting the air assist 🤣 you should have burned a hole into the plastic guard with the laser rather than destroying it with a drill bit🤣🛫

    Pro tip, buy a laser that does not require any of these accessories. My 90W FSL Titan W\ Autofocus is sooooooooooooooo nice. Expensive, but I didn't have to mess around and mod things.

    @@sjholmesbrown I don't really need a primer on how to buy. If I see a high price point I don't buy it. I don't just buy it anyway because I want to call myself a pro. I was using laser engravers in industry over ten years ago every day. I know how to make a business doing this type of work. I have $10k I don't need, but I still won't be dropping it on an overpriced laser to boost my ego. I can make multiple passes if I need more cut bell. MORE CUT BELL!
