    Very nice video. Really appreciate a channel with a solid interest in affordable lasers. It seems that this will be the year when actually usable diod lasers for cutting arrive. Looking forward to seeing more reviews, especially the Atomstack P7 and A10 which makes bold claims to both high output and small dot size.

    Hi! Great review, thanks for sharing. I'm considering buying a Sculpfun S9, but I'm concerned about its long-term durability. Since your video was made a while ago, could you please share your experience regarding its performance over time? Has it held up well, and have you encountered any significant issues? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

  • @AJ-je3pl

    So I probably missed it but what laser do you recommend the closet to cutting and engraving in this category? I know they can’t cut threw lot but just one that can least cut and good engraving

  • @whocaresidontcare2116
    @whocaresidontcare2116 Год назад

    I liked your video. One thing I would very much like to know, what is the highest "true power" LASER head can the S9 safely handle (say DC current of 5 to 6 Amperes) and still use the existing controller and existing wiring with the exception of the external power supply due to the increased current requirements? The controller PCB is is marked as rates for 12/24 volt input.

    Hey. Downloaded the cutting test file but yet to run it. Just looking over the layers I can’t see how you’ve set the 10%,20%,30% etc for each speed. They show as 100 for each square on the layers. What am I missing ? New to lightburn so assume it’s overwritten somewhere ? Thanks!

  • @harish118
    @harish118 3 месяца назад

    Cool video, thanks. Just a quick question if I may - between the S9, S30 Pro Max and the S30 Ultra which one would be a better pick considering that the budget is somewhat flexible? It is for some general purpose cutting ( Balsa, Plywood, Acrylic etc. ) and less of engraving. I am somewhat inclined towards the S30 Pro Max with the 20W Laser Module.

  • @2iinfinite

    Im still using my eleksmaker laser. Noticed it uses 2 stepper motors to drive the y axis compared to this sculpfun which has the one stepper motor and the long shaft to the other side. Considering recreating this on mine and reusing that extra stepper for a z axis or possibly rotary attachment! Also 3d printing an air assist that uses a small aquarium pump!

    If you have to choose, which would you go for?

    I honestly don't understand why you would want to cut through thick plywood on so many passes at 100% power, not unless you have deep pockets!.
    Diode lasers, although they can accomplish it will burn out in no time.
    Monies wasted there replacing the diode lasers over time could have been used on a decent 60-100w CO2 laser which can at a lower percentage output, put up with the abuse.
