... for avoiding charcoal, you can spraypaint the PCB, then remove only 90% of the copper, and last remove the last remains with acid (I've used 1:1:1 30% Hydrochloric acid, 30% H2O2 and Aq.Dest). Or use PCB's with aluminium-core, then you can remove all the copper and the ceramic isolator beneath (the aluminium core is pretty resistant against the fiber-laser).
@@CraigHollabaugh No first time i watched this I thought it was multiple operations. Now it looks like two passes with as starting angle of 0 with a crosshatch. Might be a good move to do a line only pass to isolate everything.
Could you please describe the process you used to find the best settings ? I'm trying the same with a 50 W Raycus and no luck at all, the copper doesn't mark :( It's in focus (red dots aligned) and I'm using 90% power at 20 kHz
Ce genre de laser coûte une fortune et difficile à trouver contrairement aux lasers qui grave bois ,cuir etc... ce modèl vaporise le cuivre sa longueur d'onde est d'ailleurs plus grande 1020 environ contre 470 pour les autres
Now how to remove this black tar, which has parasitic resistance?
Burnt FR4 is slightly conductive. Could cause arching at high enough voltage.
Good point, I didn't move past this point. Electronoob recently did a complete video on making pcb with a fiber laser. Check it out.
Hello Sir,
Can you please share with me the parameters setting?

Also I would like to see the layers in lightburn.
are you talking about these? yt3.ggpht.com/xBtkD7yEdlWEO9qsEfc0eDtaTpBxMaOaF1vxlOy5nhwTCa07n9HnEJ0BX1unyswwaxCU1mTa8zAHQYs=s640-nd-v1

@@oldekline OK, thanks.
So you're burning away the copper and leaving burnt - and potentially conductive - fibreglass in its place. How's' that useful?
Useful as in how a lot of pcb's are made, but instead of etching away the coper, he burns it away.
@@Bezulba2 By burning the PCB he's carbonising the fibreglass and making it conductive. Its useless.
Thank you for sharing. Are you able to share more details on the type of laser source and settings?
sure, next time I'm in the shop I'll send these to you.
Check my YT posts to get the fiber laser settings used here.
@@CraigHollabaugh Thank you.
Quel model de tête laser permet un tel résultat puissance? réf, prix
How small is that board?
Excellent !!!
I buy an LaserPecker 3 but with 100% and 3 passes cant eliminate the coper layer
Laser Packer is not really a Laser, its a LED flashlight.........................
That's so dang cool.
Did you get the traces the way you wanted them? Any broken ones?
How long time to make this pcb?
Pleases can you give me the laser paremeters ?
Speed : 500mm/s
Power : 75%
Frequency : 20khz
Line distance of hatch : 0.05
Cross hatch
Mark loop : 3
Hi Craig, could you share the model of the laser you are using? Not the parameters but the model of the product. Thanks in advance!

Check my community post, there's an image there of my settings.
