@@Xtafa maybe in my review of the regular F1 or the ComMarker B4 20W which has similar fiber source. It produces white frosted engraving on raw aluminum.
Dear JT, I would like to ask you to make an experiment with engraving copper, mainly PCBs, with the diode laser. Copper has higher absorption for shorter wavelengths. That is why I assume that engraving copper should be more effective with the diode laser which has shorter wavelength compared to the fiber laser which emits at longer wavelength. Thank you so much. Kind Regards, Pavel
Hi, I have already tried that. Blue laser doesn't mark copper at all no matter the power. It also doesn't work on brass, raw aluminum, zinc, chrome... For metals you need infrared laser
@@JTMakesIt Hi, Thank you very much! Elsewhere, you will find an information: "450nm laser is an ideal light source for processing non-ferrous metals such as gold, copper and copper alloys". In my view, your bad experience in engraving copper using blue laser is based on the fact that the blue diode laser is usually a non-pulsed one, it is a continuous wave (CW) laser. On the other hand, the infrared fiber lasers are pulsed ones and therefore their superior performance compared to CW lasers. It would be very interesting to see the performance of a BLUE PULSED fiber laser, however, such lasers are rare. Thanks a lot again. Kind Regards, Pavel
@@PavelZahradnik-p4l I think pulsed blue laser would be very dangerous for the eye. And yes, pulses give fiber lasers the ability to vaporize metal, since the individual pulses can reach ranges of 10kW of optical power. On the other hand, fiber lasers can't mark wood which I find interesting

This is amazing! Really a great and interesting product! Thanks for sharing your insights!
Thank you for your feedback 😊
These reviews always show anodised aluminum, do you have any tests on non anodised?

Can the fiber laser cut a 1mm thick copper sheet?
It might be able to do it, but it will take a VERY long time. I don't recommend cutting things thicker than 0.3mm for practical applications.
@@JTMakesIt Thank you!
How to buy ? I'm in Oman Muscat
@@cito.brosas384 try the links in the description, but I don't know if the official store ships to your country
How to access the camera settings, I'm unable to find them in tge software. Please guide I'm new to this
@@resoar1367 what camera settings you you want to access?
@@JTMakesIt @JTMakesIt How to view the Objects on the base via camera in the XCS software, so that i'll be able to place the designs with precisions
@@resoar1367 The camera works by just clicking refresh preview in the right corner where it shows your connected machine.
Hey can i borrow yours ... ❤❤❤😊
But not directly on glass. Ony co2/uv laser can do that
@@trungthanhgaming2857 not directly, but with some black coating, it can engrave on glass.
yeah, not at that price chief
just think one can get a bigger machine for 1,100.00, thats crazy to spend almost 4 thousand on a small machine like that, wow
@@mtz3843 it is expensive, but dual beam laser allows you to engrave way more materials. You can't just compare the size
