  • The standard size of most open-frame diode lasers is around 400x400mm which is a great size for working on a benchtop and being portable. But many people find they want or need a larger working area for bigger projects. So most manufacturers have been offering rail upgrades for their base lasers. Atomstack offers one of the longer extensions that brings the working area to 850mm in the Y axis. This is a simple upgrade, but you may be wondering what is involved or how to get the software set up after the upgrade to see the larger space. In this video, I'll walk you through the upgrade process of assembling the laser with the new rails and configuring the laser in Lightburn.

    Double Thumbs Up for mentioning the $132 setting that is not mentioned in the documentation, probably should have mentioned how that means you don't have to double home from far end for those that don't know for this and other extension kits that don't mention it.

      Yes, I should have added that is a symptom of needing to fix the setting as well. But as long as both entries are changed it should work fine across the entire area.

      Very true! I got frustrated for a month or so before googling it to find how to change the setting. Didn't know how easy it was.

    Thanks for this video. I have the Atomstack A5 and Lightburn software and have just ordered the extension kit. My machine is against a wall so when I extend the y axis it will be parallel to the wall with the computer monitor mounted on the wall. I was wondering if there is any way to change lightburn to match the orientation of the machine. Ideally with the 850 mm rails being the X axis Parrell to the wall with the 410 mm rails being the y axis perpendicular to the wall.

    Thank you very much for your video. The instructions are very clear and precise. I has Atomstack S20 Pro and Atomstack AC1 camera. I fallow your steps and install extension kit . Evrithing looks right at this point but when I try to calibrate AC1 camera I have a problem. The camera can't see all working area and aligment with camera did not work corectly . Do you have experience with Lightburn camera ? Any advice will be well appreciated. You got new subscriber here.

      I do have another video on the Atomstack camera and how to set it up, but I have not run it on the extended frame lasers. ruclips.net/video/Pox6E59X_4o/видео.html I know The Clack Shack has had some luck with wide angle lens cameras on his extended laser if that helps.

    Did you end up making an enclosure for this? I would be interested to see. Thanks for the video. Very clear and helpful.

    • @Vintauri
      @Vintauri  4 месяца назад

      I've got plans for both this and the 70w machine enclosures that I hope to get to this month. It's taking longer than I'd hope with other priorities getting in the way.

    Good instructional video - I have the A20Pro and my wife bought me the x toolextension abt a yr ago and it is still sitting in the box. After watching your video I just might put it together but before I do. Towards the end of your video you showed how it looks in lb. Is there any way to change it from looking vertical when designing to horizontal

    • @Vintauri

      I'm glad the video has helped out! Unfortunately, due to where the homing and origin of the laser are at, Lightburn sets up the view that way. To change that, you would need to be able to change the orientation and origin of the laser's hardware controller first.
