What i would love to see on these, is an external air assist. Some of the topline co2 lasers use an external air assist, for blowing debris out of the way of the laser. Maybe it would possible to 3D print or create in some other way :D Nice review. :) Sculpfun and the Longer is cheaper. But the Neje has the ability of a bigger workspace, which can be a very usefull thing for bigger projects. :)
Bluetooth is Supported by the Sculpfun S30, with the right Firmware. Edit: With a Larger Antenna attached to the S30 Mainboard it works just fine😅 However there is a Wifi Symbol on their pics of the Mainboard. Wifi isn't supported yet😢. But I love my S30 5W, for 280$ it's a great machine.
I like the Neje Max 4 with the 20W because of the extra options, but is at least 250$ more expensive. In this case, I would get the Longer Ray 5 20W because of the offline controller. Longer and Sculpfun are a few hundred dollars cheaper than Neje if they are always discounted.
Hi, loving the video, thank you, Have finally decided on which diode cnc I would like to get, thanks to your video, and its the NEJE Max 4, having looked at a number of review videos now, this one seems to tick all the right boxes, have a question I need to extend the size, I know NEJE do an extender pack to take it up to a 1150mm, but I need to go up to 1500mm to cover the size of the material i am going to cut, got in touch with NEJE to ask if they could supply a set of rails 1500mm, they just kept coming back with we do an extender pack 1150mm, they did tell me the rail dimensions, 20x30, but I dont seem to be able to find that size, can you help or suggest where I might be able to get that size rail in that length, any help would be much appreciated, keep up up the great work, Stu in the UK
Ciao! Dopo giorni di frustrazione col mio laser da 5.5w, sto maturando l'idea di sostituirlo con un 20w ma non vorrei spendere un patrimonio! Sulle prime pensavo di poter sostituire solo il modulo alla mia FlyingBear Laserman, ma da quanto ho capito mi costerebbe quanto una macchina nuova e non sono nemmeno sicuro che si possa fare. Ad oggi cosa consiglieresti? Tra quelle nel video mi attira molto la Neje per la possibilità di lavorare pannelli lunghi, ma è veramente molto spartano, mi interesserebbe una macchina "stand alone", che possa lavorare senza cavo al pc (magari un monitor o un collegamento allo smartphone...). Mi consiglieresti qualcosa che non costi un occhio?
Thank you very much for this comparative review. I have had a Sculpfun S9 for some time, on which I replaced the 5.5W module with a 10w. Still I am not satisfied with the cutting ability. I think I need more power and therefore thought of buying a S30 Ultra with a 20W module when I leaned about the Neje Max 4 E80. Now I have my doubts. The Neje is more expensive than the S30 which is an issue but on the technical side, which can serve me better? Neje's controllable Z axis offers good material thickness overcoming through machinery while Sculpfun declare their beam to be long and still concentrated. Could you (or maybe someone of the followers) please compare the actual material thickness that can be cut by the 2 machines: Sculpfun S30 20W (long beam) vs. Neje 20W (moving module)?
Hi, thank you for your comment. The two laser Modules are equivalent in terms of cutting depth; by moving the laser to the lowest possible, you go deeper. The benefit of the Neje Max 4 is that this operation can be done automatically and in between layers. In terms of cutting the Neje 20W as a thinner line and because of the z offset it cuts a bit faster. On the other end, the Sculpfun is an all-in-one machine and includes the Air Pump with onboard control. In the neje, you need your air source and you need to buy the electro valve to make the air control automated which is an extra cost. A bit late, but I hope it helps. Ciao
That's not the point. The Z-axis can be controlled dynamically by the appropriate software, so that the laser beam focus can follow a curved contour. As shown in the video, by the way.

The larger work area with the optional extension kit is a major plus with rhe Neje.
Very fair comparison video! Nice job! I have the Sculpfun S30 Ultra 33w and love it so much! Never regret my choice😊😊
I have a sculpfun S30 pro max and the cutting performance is really good, I love it!
Very interesting and useful video. I oscillate between Sculpfun S30, Longer 2 and Mecpow, all with the 20w laser.

offline control neje support it as well. really nice brand.

Z axis is irrelevant as you can add feet and raise it up, as you do with a rotary attachment.
That's not the point. The Z-axis can be controlled dynamically by the appropriate software, so that the laser beam focus can follow a curved contour. As shown in the video, by the way.
