My 2 cents worth, I use a small piece of aluminum foil to cover the mirror before I tape it, that will protect the mirror from needing to clean after and also prevents the tape from flaring up when you hit it with the laser beam. I personally would never push my lens out of the holder with a pen, I use Qtips. Just my opinion and 20 years working with lasers.

I have had my laser machine over 4 years and still love it.All the problems I have had was mostly & unfortunately user error.Great value for the money.The best you can do is use it, this alone will help

Absolutely love that we're told at the beginning of the video to have the hood shut when firing the laser for safety. Then for the remainder of the video, your employee fires the laser time and time again with almost every door open, and absolutely no eye protection... Absolutely fantastic example to set 👍

Good job bro. I am service engineer of laser machine. Your video is so helpful.

Best Laser Alignment video out there! Big Thanks, you've saved me alot of time and frustration ;) Awesome

Thank you sooo much for this very educational and clear video. I've had serious trouble in aligning the laser and will definitely follow your clear guidelines. Hope to now succeed.

mirrors 1 and 2 align perfectly but when i do the test on mirror 3 to see if mirrors 1 and 2 align on the Y-axis then they do not align. Any idea what could be causing this? basically all three corners of my machine align perfectly except for the top right hand corner.

Great job. Been watching a few video's and yours was the simplest instructions.

Thank you for video !! Helped me out big time

Nice machine! I like what I see so far, other than lens removal. That's pretty involved. I currently own a cheapo Chinese laser and change lenses frequently (between engraving and cutting), but it takes less than a minute to do (pop the air hose out, turn cone and it comes out with lens inside, then twist alum o-oring and lens falls right out). Hopefully you'll improve on that design! :)

Thanks for this man. I need it on my laser alignment

Ok your video is so dark I can't tell what you are measuring to level the tube. I assume it is the top shoulder of that bracket. Lossening the front screw, no problem but that back screw there is no way I can get my hands and the wrench to that screw. I have measured to the top shoulder on both ends --one end is 84,74mm and the other is 84.36mm is that close enough to level?

Hi My name is Horacio I saw the video that you put on KZfaq how to align the Lazer machine but I would like it if you would do me a favor Where to get the red light to be able to align the laser machine but I could not get the red light where you got it Could you send me this information thanks

Nice explanation! Now all I need is to get one of these machines!

why is it ok to leave the door open for this procedure? What is the maximum power where that would be acceptable? on my 150W tube with x%?

Hi thank you very much your tutorial has been very helpful. I have a doubt though, on my machine when i do the test on the first mirror it makes a dot with a half circle indent around it, is this normal and can it be solved ? On 2nd mirror dot is perfect I'm trying to perfectly align the laser which on my machine is offset by a very small distance and this half circle on the first mirror makes a difference Laser tube on my machine is a chinese 80W upgraded Reci, machine is LC1390 from Weike, very happy with it by the way

I am at a Vocational tech school this year. It is our first year with a BOSSlaser. We have an LS40. After cleaning it, we noticed that small lettering would be engraved twice. Is this video a good reason for why it would be messed up?

Easy on the lenses there

I have one other question or comment. My laser did not come with an industrial chiller, until I get one, I was planning on putting a 5 gallon container of water in an old dorm type refrigerator to keep the water cool. Is there an optimum water temperature for a 100 watt RECI laser tube? Sorry but I have so many questions yet . I'm cautious and want everything right before starting.

The y access won't rotate and makes a clutter noise that stops it from going up and down

Is there a Maintenance or repair manual available for he 1420?

thanks sir this video verry helpfull for me

Great video. Can please advise what the function is for the silver springs/screw on the mirrors please?

this si the best video ever! v

What a beautiful laser cutter. Too bad that price is unknown. I bet it is $10000 or so.

I am getting "spark streaks" (don't know how else to describe it) out one side of the nozzle when cutting steel. is this a head or nozzle problem?

My Laser is not cutting perfect shapes / angles. Is this the laser alignment?

Wow, if i could put two or more likes i will do it, great video so helpfull, well done !

thanks to you

Flat side down? I thought you guys used meniscus lenses. It should be concave side down.

Hello all , what price for that boss machine ??? What size of working area ??? And laser tube how mane ours working. Thans

nice explanation

where i can but the laser light for this aligtment?

Forgive the question. Newby here. If you are turning the tape sticky to sticky so no glue is showing on either side, how are you sticking it to the mirror mount?

How much does laser alignment of a diesel pump cost?

What is the first lens called? The one used to reflect the red beam onto the first mirror? The very first lens in front of the co2 tube?

What sensor is mounted to the nozzle?

Also the air compressor put out a pulsing type air. In other words there is no compressed air tank or regulator. I have a huge air system in my shop. Can't I just find an accurate regulator that will allow a pound or two of pressure that is even and constant. Anyone know what kind and where to get one. I suppose start looking at air brush regulators.

very useful

Great video! What brand wipes are you using?

how to know when the laser has already lost its power and is not a lack of calibration

Good video until he walks around the other side, we hear the BEEPS and the laser does a pulse and we are left with not knowing how he did that. I'm wasting my time today trying to figure out how to pulse my Boss.

you ehh. do you know that the sound from your video is so soft that it's like whispering compared to the average video?
