This is the kind of video I was looking for. I am new to Fiber Lasers and this video answered so many questions. Keep these coming for people like me.

@BeardedBuildsCo - Thanks. Apparently (at least according facehugger's Fiber Laser Group) these settings are "people spend a lot of time and money getting the right, 2) settings differ per machine/lens/environment" I converted your Lightburn Black mark settings to EzCad and had a black mark on brass sheet in 3 minutes. Thanks for posting your technic here for us to duplicate!

This was a perfect video - concise, truly informative with settings, and with some finishing tips. I have jsut purchased a JPT 100w Mopa and can't wait to give these a whirl. I may have missed it, but what lens were you using?

Hi, you use a 100W JPT Mopa M7 right? This Laser has the Option Pulse duration. You have to look into the technical Data first. There you can find the max Ratings depending of the Frequency. You can set the Q Pulse of max Power depending of the Frequency. Example: if you use a Frequency of 70kHz the max Q Pulse is 250ns. At 200kHz the max Q Pulse is 60ns at the max output Power. It means if you set the Power at 50% at 200kHz and 60ns the output Power is 50% or 50W. If you increase the Q Puls from 60 to 200ns the output Power is less than 50% or 50W. If you decrease the Q Puls from 60 to 30 the output Power is also less than your seting of 50% or 50W. The max Q Puls is 2ns at 2.960kHz. At 20kHz it is 350ns. Hope you Understand what i mean.

Great video! Thanks. I am new to all of this and I have several questions: 1) Does Lightburn completely replace EZCad2 (i.e. EZCad2 is deleted from system) or does it work in conjunction and 2) Love the coin idea but, just might be my lack of imagination, what exactly is the market for these? Love watching your videos! Thanks.

@@BeardedBuildsCo Any tool steel would work imo, especially for testing. Most seem to use A2, S7, D2, misc vanadium steels, H13, etc... just need to heat treat after cutting. Older solutions were def milled CNC, but many of the companies making them seem to have switched to MOPAs, just on the higher end.

The answer of how he learned is "failing" You mention nothing about WHAT you are trying to do. If it's metal, get a cheap test sheet and change only 1 setting at a time. Just like an optometrist that flips 1 lens at a time and asks you "is this better or worse" Process of elimination. Keep detailed notes. Good luck.

do you have to cover the surface with a black marker or anything so theirs so refraction back into the lens or does it not matter with a fiber laser?

Like with any product you have to find the right customer. If you don’t know who you are selling to then you won’t sell many. When you find the customs you are selling to then you need to get it in front of them. Coins are a semi unique item that only appeals to specific people.

@@BeardedBuildsCo Does the lens size really make a big difference? I'm running a 70mm lens on my identical machine and can get absolutely nowhere near the quality you seem to get off your 110mm lens. Engraving and cleaning seem to go great, but my black layer is just... not black.
@BeardedBuildsCo
@BeardedBuildsCo Ай бұрын
@ThePattyChuck the shorter the lens the more depth you can get quickly because the power is not diluted by the longer distance. If everything is working out well other than the black it is likely a settings that you need to work on. Using my engraving and clean settings on a different lens probably work perfectly fine but the black will need fine tuning.

I currently have a 4x8 cnc plasma table that I make a lot fire pits, signs, etc. with, but I am looking into fiber laser markers and just waiting to click the purchase button. I feel OMTech is my company of choice due to the amount of information there seems to be out there. I am definitely interested in coin and other metal products as well as pistol grip / slide engraving (example GLOCK). I will be getting either the 30w or 50w and I would like your opinion on whether the 30w would be a great starter or should I step up to the 50? I see each has the same engrave depth capabilities and I do understand that more wattage = more speed, but for starting is the 1,700 dollars more for the 50w worth the initial investment? I am by know ways cheap and always believe in big or go home like with my plasma table, though I would definitely love the 100w, I am just trying to find the best bang for the buck starting fiber marker. Your videos are very educational and definitely encourage me to enter this market. I am a Firefighter/Paramedic as well and have a ton of ideas reaching this market. Your honest opinion on which of the 2 machines I am looking at would be greatly appreciated and valued. Thank you sir.
