Great video! I figured out dark black annealing on my fiber without defocusing the lens. 8 watts of power. Line space .02mm. 100khz frequency. 100 mm/s. Thats with a 175mm work area lens.
Nice video and thank you for taking the time to make it. I never really understood the hatch settings until I watched your video and using the circle to align the pizza cutter was a great idea.
As a new EM Smart owner I am excited to learn about Annealing. I also joined the Laser Master Academy and subscribed to your channel. My question is - Can I anneal Copper like you did the stainless steel?
Great video! @3:45 when you were comparing the annealed vs. the engraved knife, how many passes and how long did it take to engrave the knife? I'm trying to decide on whether to purchase a 60w Mopa vs.80w Mopa Fiber Laser. I would need a laser with power that can Engrave stainless steel or mild steel for mostly lettering in less than 20 minutes. Thank you!
Love all of your videos, I have been watching for over two years now. I have a K40 Co2 all tricked out, a10 watt laser diode and my fiber laser will be here Friday the same as yours I purchased it after watching your video. I have never used Easy Cad but I am watching videos on it. Can you use light burn or other software? Again love your videos, keep them coming. Thanks Daniel
Thank you for this. Your video was valuable.. got yoyrself a new subcriber from the UK 🇬🇧 🙌 i have a 60w JPT mopa with 110mm lens. I have ezcad2 and lightburn. Whoch software should I use for black marking steel. Thank you
Good night, happy new year, I would like to know if the laser is worth it since for me it is a lot of money and if it can be engraved on ceramic, thank you
I wanted to try this and got some cheap butter knives from the dollar store. Haven't had a chance to try yet though. I kept hearing that these fiber laser can't mark metal. Except for one guy I saw doing a trick with mustard.
Thanks for sharing these informative video Sir, I really enjoyed following along. I absolutely appreciate the small breakdown of what the laser is doing with particular settings, you made it very easy to understand. And of course your delivery is also quite interesting.
Thanks for your content!! Do you know if there is a laser machine I can buy to anneal an stainless steal surface of 8.5x4 inches? I've tryng to find the right one but is has been so hard!
Awsome great detailed video👍👍👍 from your expertise with laser witch one do you recommend, for the most top detailed engraver. For me to purchase ??? My purpose to want the best detailed laser is because I want to make fine detailed plates for my ROller mill to make fine jewelry. But I want in a fare price range and affordable.. thank you and much success to you
As a new EM Smart owner I was excited about Annealing. I have subscribed to your channel My question is can I anneal Copper like the stainless steel? If so, what settings should I use?
From my understanding, copper can be annealed. I have not experimented with it but I would assume it would take a bit more power because of the reflectivity. If you joined the Laser Master Academy, send Alex an IM. He’s real good about answering those questions!! Good luck sir!
Hi - Alex from Laser Everything said we can't do Annealing with the Raycus machine, and if I am not mistaken this EM-Smart that you are using is a Raycus machine, isn't it? I think Alex recommended JPT machine for Annealing, but It seems like you are able to do Annealing with this Raycus machine as well. Sorry, I am new to this, so I hope my question is making sense. I am just trying to figure out which Engraving machine would be better for me.
My 30 watt fiber has a Raycus source, and I have no problems with annealing. I don't remember ever hearing Alex say that a Raycus source couldn't anneal, but if he did, he is wrong.
Correction on the "zig-zag" hatch pattern: the laser does not mark a zig-zag line. It's unidirectional, meaning it marks a single line, left to right, moves up and back to the left side without marking, then marks another line, left to right. On the hatch pattern icons in EZ CAD, the blue lines show where the laser actually marks, while the red lines show the travel while the laser is off.
Garret, I'd love to get my hands on one of these fiber lasers someday. Just out of my price range at the moment. I hope they come down in price soon. Nonetheless, really good instruction/project video.
Quindi se ho capito bene, la ricottura non è un pretrattamento ma una incisione fuori fuoco di 5 mm, esatto? Inoltre che parametri hai usato, in base alla tua macchina? Complimenti per il video.
Good tutorial... But the level part might just be over the top does not matter with a flat item. also need to check the machine first. If the machine is at 10degre and the disc is 0degre is it going to be a mess because it is the angel or distance from the laser that matters.
I recently bought the EM-SMART Basic through your link. It arrived safely and I was able to assemble it with no problems. HOWEVER…There was no instruction manual included that walked me through the EZ Cad software. RUclips has some videos on the installation but they go so quickly I’m not able to get even close to being able to do the installation I’m my 64-bit windows 11 laptop computer. PLEASE SIR, create a video on this topic going slow enough so people can at the very least screen capture each step and be able to successfully install EZ-CAD. Thank you for your help.
Sir love the video but one correction the zig zag patern doesn't mean that it burns in zig zag. What that is saying is the red is when the laser is literally off and the galvo is moving to the next burn point, and the laser then turns back on. So if you look and you notice that there is 2 snake patterns one has red and one dose not the one that dose not have red in it means the laser stays burning the whole time. But loved the vid cause I could never get the anneal to work till you said that it's off set by 5mm. Lol
Super precise bubble level. Machinists use it. Then you use your eyeball to make sure the bubble is in the center. Lol. I work in the aerospace/defense industry, and if your using your eye to check a level, no matter how much that level cost....trying to eye the bubble being in the center of the bubble...is lol. Machinists don't use bubbles to level their equipment.
Now that is an explanation that is the best .
My favorite laser channel for sure.

a lot of sage advice and great tips - thankyou
You make things so easy to understand. My smart-basic will be delivered on the 27th and I can’t wait to try some of the things I’ve learned from you.
Hi, can you tell me what the difference is between Smart One and Smart Basic?
@@ramonhanneman Hi Ramon, both have the same marking quality. If you ignore looking and portability, EM-Smart Basic is more cost-effective. :)
I found using a plum-bob for focus works perfectly for my laser adjustment but I have a 100 watt MOPA so have issues of to much power lol
This is a great video! Very well done! Thanks for sharing!!
After seeing your video about EM Smart One last week i went a bought one, it arrive sometime tomorrow 😊😊😊😊😊😊😁😁😁🍻
Nice video and thank you for taking the time to make it. I never really understood the hatch settings until I watched your video and using the circle to align the pizza cutter was a great idea.
Awesome Video!!! Hope to see more about Fiber Laser...am getting me a 50W JPT in the next weeks!!..again...thank you!!!

Great idea! Thanks for video

Awesome Idea. Can you please share how to do the same trick on knives? Can we do these designs on Carbon Metal also?
Sure! One of my tutorials coming up will be how to take a design and apply it to a knife. You can achieve marking on Carbon steel!
@@3DPrintFarm that's so expecting!!
sir very nice video your explanations is very good to understand easy make more video
Have you tried throwing it in the dishwasher?
I just did, and it has started to rust :/
I'm just wondering where did you get such a nice vector file for laser engraving. It's AMAZING!
Sandy Eggo made that file and did have it available on their site.
Awsome great detailed video👍👍👍 from your expertise with laser witch one do you recommend, for the most top detailed engraver. For me to purchase ???

G'day Garret. Love your work! Easy to follow and entertaining as well. Keep 'em coming. Just wondering if this blade been annealed?
Do you have a Param Library for this specific laser?
Nice work! question about the actual file, did you make that file or did you get it from somewhere?
those pizza cutters look awesome! Thanks for the ideas. Never thought about doing things like that. Did you create the artwork for the cutters?

if ya sell the example 25 pizzacutter how much is the working cost like energy, workhour, maintenance of the machines, etc?

How long it takes to engrave that round image/design?

Hello sir, iam about to buy a laser fiber 3000w, iam from morocco and i would love to have some ideas and wich industry i could make money monthly,
#luvurvids Will this laser engrave brass? Thx!
Thank you sir

Have heard that lasers sourced from Max are pretty shabby

Hi dear SHADOW LIVING. In which step of the EZCAD installation you encountered a problem, we can give you guide. :)
I’m going to show you right here right now how to spend a lot of money on a laser.
Cool
Thanks Garret! Nice custom pizza cutter with our machine, how much will you plan to sell, haha :D

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper
you can open a business using this technique at surgical instrument, get this tip.
Could i pay u to teach me
Don't know how the Hatch knew which parts to fill in.
Making money and making a living are two different things.
you don't need to take the laser out of focus for that.
Dude. Not annealed. That has to do with the process of annealing steel. Before hardening and tempering.
OMG please get to the point, UGH!
