These project ideas are about laser cutting, laser engraving, laser engravers and laser cutters.
The Sculpfun S9 is a brand new high end laser engraver that was just released! It is so capable that we should call it a proper laser cutter. Its special feature is that it can cut thick materials with ease thanks to its special optics. If you want to see my technical test of this machine, check my website and you will be able to compare the Sculpfun S9 performance to the Sculpfun S6 Pro, Atomstack A5 Pro, Ortur Laser Master 2 Pro, Neje Master 2S Plus and many more!

I have been having difficulty getting specific information on this. Please tell me, do you think this S9 can engrave clean lines in bone that are about .07mm wide and .07mm deep? Or can you recommend an alternative inexpensive system to achieve it? Thank you for any advice you can give.

The s9 has the thinnest lines in its class. Check the link in the video description of my review of the hobbylasercutters.com. where I have measured the laser spot size. If Ou want to have smaller laser spot (0.3mm) checkout my review of the Enjoywood M4)

I had great success engraving transparent acrylic. You need to paint it black first with a spray paint or better - some water soluble Tempera paint that can be easily washed off. Then the paint dries, you engrave the thing and after engraving you remove the paint. The engraving leaves a matte finish. Same procedure with glass, you just need to set the engraving speed much slower and use more power.

@JTMakesIt 2 жыл бұрын
Black color is so that the laser beam does not reflect off the surface and has something to work on. You can blacken the sirface with more easily removable paint like children watercolors. You need black surface so the laser light can be absorbed. You can do stainless without blackening with the s9, but I haven't tested brass yet.

It only marks SOME steel. Like the one on cheap cutter blades. Not shiny metals, not zinc plated steel, not coated steel, definetly not chrome steel. Not even with paint, vinegar, mustard, etc. I am in the same situation belived those youtubers that leaved us thinking that those lasers could engrave any steel. I spent hours trying. Try cheapest cutter blades first. speed 1000m/s 80% on 20W laser.

How deep in stainlessness steel could you make the engraving if you did multiple passes?
@JTMakesIt 2 жыл бұрын
I don't know how to measure that, but if you did multiple passes, the engraving would be darker and deeper. The engravings have some depth, because they don't come off easily when using sandpaper to sand the surface

All decent diode lasers can do all of this! Guessing you were paid to say how great this laser was. I have never tried a mirror, but I can get the same results from my super cheap $200 no name laser. I am guessing I can do a mirror too, just never tried it.

I was not paid or got anything for this video. This video is just me having fun with this laser, because I wanted to see what it can do, and I got a lot of requests about certain materials in the comments. I have tested a lot of cheper lasers. Cheaper lasers usually fail to engrave stainless steel and ceramics and other metallic parts. I tried mirror with weaker laser and it engraved it but the engraving was not as clean because it did not have enough beam energy to cleanly burn away the coating. But Sculpfun S9 is still considered a cheap laser. Its 300$, but it performs almost as good as some 500$+ machines

@@JTMakesIt So you bought this laser with your own funds? It was not given to you for review? It sure sounded like a commercial to me... no other laser can do all this..... All other lasers can do all that besides maybe the mirror, and that is only a maybe. I can get just as good of results with stainless and ceramics. I have no doubt this is a good laser, I am only questioning your video.

@@jon9947 I got it for free to review on my website. There was no obligation from the sponsor for me to make this video. If you listened the video, you would hear that I said that it is the only laser in this price range that can do ALL of these projects. This means that less capable machines can still do some of them. I have around 10+ laser engravers currently, ranging from 200$ to 800$. And none of the sub 400$ lasers I have is capable to engrave stainless steel half as good as the S9. This is why I said that it is the best in this price range. The reason that the video sounds a bit like a commercial is because I have posted my affiliate link for this machine as the affiliate commission helps me to make more videos for you at no extra cost to the buyers of the machine. Plus it enables me to obtain discount coupons that benefit the viewers. Each video takes about 50+ hours of my work, and I can't do this for free as it takes away most of my free time. I still need to work at my job 8 hours each day. KZfaq is my hobby. If you expect that someone is going to spend 300$-500$ of their own money each month and then film and edit the video for 1 month in the weekends, just to earn 30$ from youtube ad revenue from that video, then you have weird expectations. But one thing is true and that is that all of my reviews are unbiased. I always say what I want. If I like the machine I say good things, but if I don't like something I will say it as well. On my website you can see objective performance tests of all the machines I have tested so you can compare their performance directly and buy the machine that suits your needs the most. This is why I do all of this, because manufacturer specs for these machines are all over the place and it is impossible to compare the machines using the product descriptions online.

Please could you show reversed side of jam's lit? According to my experiences it will be damaged even when front side has a nice engraving. There is some plastic surface cover of metal that gets damaged and the jam lit get rust in the engraved place - and mould appears. I recommend not to use it.

You need to tweak the settings a bit. Going very fast with the right amount of power doesn't pentrate the other side. But otherwise I agree with your statement.

It takes some time to fine tune the settings. If I don't have multiple items to test the parameters and i need to do it in the first go, I rather use more power then less. These are short engravings they should not affect the lifespan of the diode. I tried to engrave glass with less power,but the lines were not as crisp. Diode should last thousands of hours.

You use Full Power way too often. To cut Paper? C'mon. Also, both Atomstack (S10/A10/X7) & xTool D1 have comparable, if not better, performance to the S9 for about the same price.

Better to use more power than finding out that it was set up just too low and you waste the piece. I have the A10 and the XTool on test right now. They are approx twice as expensive as the S9. Wil release videos and tests soon.
