Co2
FSL Muse Pandora comes pre-assembled. You just need to connect the accessories and turn it on.
The 30W fiber-laser can engrave dog tags onto stainless steel at a 90deg angle and at a speed of 708 IPM by using 70% of the power.
Fiber lasers are widely used for engraving on metals as they can engrave more effectively than generic CO2 lasers.
FSL Muse Pandora allows you to raster engrave on aluminum and steel as well as nickel, copper or silver.
Laser machines can be used to cut almost any type of material. The kind of laser machine used will affect the materials you can cut. However, a CO2 laser can cut through metals like copper, aluminum, and brass. They can however cut through nonmetallic substances like wood or plastic.
Triumph Laser has EZCAD2.0 laser control software that can be used with their desktop 30W laser engraver machine. EZCAD2.0 can be used to make simple shapes or text.
To increase engraving area from 7.87"x7.87", to 11.81"x 11.87", you'll need a 50W or 30W fiber laser.
So, if your metal cuts need to be precise, then you need a laser cutter. If you just need to cut simple shapes, and thick ones, then a plasma laser should be alright.
Triumph Laser offers a computer, rotary dial, foot switch and 200mm lens. It also includes laser goggles and a set of wrenches for the 30W desktop fiber laser.
BREVIS 1212 AJ compact 3kW fiber laser is loaded with a diverse range of machine features to support high-speed processing, easy material loading, with a footprint and capacity to efficiently accommodate small cell manufacturing.
They do not offer an official return policy, but you will get a 30-day replacement period when you purchase through Amazon.
Refraction bends light in an optical fiber laser. The optical fiber cable passes light through an opaque silica glass core that is impure and transparent. Cladding is a layer of silica that has been doped with other materials to reduce its refractiveindex. The core-clad interface will reflect light due to the difference in their refractive index.
For expanding the engraving area, taller focal length lenses are used that require highly concentrated power.
They can import and use different file formats like PLT, BMP, DXF, JPG, TIF, AI, PNG, JPG, and more.
Laser cutters cost between $13 and $20 per hour to operate. Water jet cutters cost between $15 and $30 per hour. Overall, the operating costs are comparable, and the total cost will be determined by your project.
Compressed air, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon are the four primary types of assist gas for fiber laser machines.
To guide light, fiber lasers use an optical fiber cable made of silica glass. Because the resulting laser beam is straighter and smaller than with other types of lasers, it is more precise. They also have a small footprint, are energy efficient, require little maintenance, and have low operating costs.
