Thanks for the tour of your camera setup. I hadn’t seen a camera being used until your video. This will be my next purchase for my new laser setup. Again, thank you!! 😉

I have one in every enclosure. I have several videos of different cameras for the various enclosure heights. Make sure to take height into consideration.

I love your videos. I need some advice. I do craft shows and all the work I do is with my Omtech CO2 laser. I'm looking to be able to take some pre-made items, like ornaments and such and be able to personalize on the spot. Is a diode laser with a camera a good way to do this? Are they fast enough to be personalizing basically with names? Can it be done accurately enough without a camera and is there a setup you recommend?

I cut and engrave at events using my 20 watt. I use a jig setup that allows me to do several different blanks without changing anything. Search my videos for the portable Clack Shack. I go over my setup in the videos, I use a camera and air filtering system.

Fantastic video...explains a lot! When you shut down for the day and turn everything on again, do you run through both calibrations and a test dot like you showed?

Not normally, it stays accurate enough to do most jobs. If I am using it just to place a cut on a piece of stock, I just frame and go. If I am engraving knives or something similar, I will check it before I begin. By targeting a scrap piece. The setup in lightburn, I generally dont have to do unless I move something on the setup.

For writing to the controller, I'll bet XTool has done something similar to what I found with my Sculpfun. Normally the grbl firmware is super generic, with everything set by writing the parameters after uploading the grbl code. But Sculpfun uses a slightly modified version that prevents writing to the onboard flash. So you can write and it will keep it until you cycle the power. Then it goes back to the factory defaults. I get why they did it to help keep people out of trouble, but it was super annoying. So I read the values from the controller in Lightburn, saved to a file, uploaded a clean copy of the generic grbl firmware, and used Lightburn to load the values from the file and write them back and then they stayed. Can be tricky if you're not used to monkeying around like that, but I mess with Arduinos and such so I'm used to it. Not sure if that would work on the XTool or if it's worth trying.

I don't have the extensions, but that would be an issue. You could set it for one end or the other I guess. You can run 2 cameras but only one is viewable at at time.

What is a good camera for an omtech 80w with a bed size of 28x20
@TheClackShack
@TheClackShack Жыл бұрын
I don't have any experience with a bed that size, it would obviously need to be wide angle to cover the work area without needing to be on the ceiling. I would probably mount it on the door of the machine and use it with the cover raised to act as an extension. Your mounting choice will play a role in which type of camera works best. Fisheye is it is close, flat if it will be far away.

If the image is upside down, lightburn rotates the image. You can rotate the mounting to avoid it.
