Hi Marco. Since you mentioned playing with fiber laser, I'm glad to help if you need splicing or cleaving. I have a Sumitomo cleaver and fusion splicer, plus common lapping, terminating and inspecting tools. Those were left from my power-over-fiber project during my PhD student career.
Erbium is my favourite element. Largely because it was part of two separate research jobs. I studied it as a dopant in optical fibres and then again a few years later as an alloying element in steel. It was great in both roles. In fact I have never found a problem that Erbium won't solve (in cases where I have tried to use Erbium).
Seeing new videos from your channel brings a smile to my life. Wish I could be on your level but we all have to start somewhere. I also noticed your channel because of the Eleksmaker video because I got that as my first machine as I'm sure many also did. Currently working on my workshop to open a small manufacturing "professional hobby" shop.
Jeez you have no idea how much I would like this video if I could, probably one of your best videos so far in my opinion, although pretty much all of them are great
Many thanks for all the great videos throughout the year. I hope that you have a very Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year!!! Best of luck in 2019, Joe
Happy holidays to you to. You’re AWESOME ........ I love al your stuff. I got my diploma of Radio electrician in 1978 in Lugano Switzerland 🇨🇭we was studying more the tubes (valvole) and some transistor at the end..... I really enjoy your video. Thank you very much and Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Damn, for that price I'll finally have an application for those dodgy copper water blocks I made for my High School final project that I've always been too terrified to install in my PC. Only took 10 years. I'll keep my eye open for some of this stuff.
you are insanely smart, and seemingly somewhat of an expert across what seems to be quite a large amount of scientific fields. You have this weird omniscient quality. you remind me of the Internet or smth Love from Denmark
Omg, this is one very interesting video ! Awesome ! Hurry up and let us enjoyed more of these goodies. Your video is an excellent Christmas present, thnxs !
I have a very similar Argon laser, plus another that I've shown in a vid. I haven't used them in years, but they make for great heaters. lol And I used to build / splice EDFA (Erbium-Doped Fibre Amplifier) devices when I worked for Nortel. I would probably still remember how to use the diamond cutter and a splicing machine, but it's been many years. Splicing machines are fascinating to watch, no matter how many hundreds of splices I'd done.
When I was a grad student at Stanford our lab had a 5W argon ion laser. When it needed service I would drive it down the road to Spectra Physics in Mountain View.
an AOM is designed to modulate only one wavelength (can be adjusted via the bragg angle) a PCAOM lets you modulate multiple wavelengths... they do this by deflecting the unwanted power/wavelengths... they are pretty magical
That corexy belt arrangement is off. They have to be parallel and straight while accounting for belt thickness. Check out the UMMD 3d printer blog for a thorough explanation.
There's a fantastic breakdown of CoreXY intricacies here drmrehorst.blogspot.com/2018/08/corexy-mechanism-layout-and-belt.html Very clear diagrams on which belt sections need to be parallel to an axis, and which don't, along with all the theory and maths about why that's the case.
Have you gone in more detail about beam combiners and fiber hardware? I'm looking to couple my 40w CO2 laser with a couple diodes to allow for fine frequency and power adjustment for a multi material SLM machine I'm building.
Wow. Es gibt nur wenige Menschen, die sowas machen. Und dann auch noch als Hobby in ihrer Freizeit! Was machst Du beruflich? Das kann nur entweder Fußböden putzen sein, oder fürs DLR irgendwelche neuen Weltraumtechnologien erfinden.
*@Marco Reps* that last blue unit... is that step looking piece setup as mirrors would be in a parallel array? Is the surface coated, or have a FS type mirror finish? I love the compactness of that unit, very clever!!
Lasers, laser power supplies and drivers, cnc, grbl, stepper systems converted to homemade servo systems. It looks like we asked Santa for the same things this Christmas!
Great video! As always. I wanted to ask you for advice on which laser is best to buy to make a deep engraving on black granite. I tried a Chinese 15 watt laser (the real output turned out to be 4.5 watts) but it doesn't even leave a mark on the granite.
USB can guarantee package latency. One of the four protocols supports guaranteed latency: - Interrupt mode (Full speed 12MB/s support down to 10ms, probably even lower when configured) (- Data mode) (- Isochronous mode) (- Control mode)
Please tell me you're going to change the pulley layout on that corexy machine. You're going to run into issues where it's out of square due to the belts not being lined up correctly.
I love you videos and your work it's always very intriguing! How do I get my hands on one of those laser drivers?!?! I have a fiber coupled diode laser that needs 1.2 ish volts and up to 90 amps. But I'm sure I could still have plenty of fun at 50A.
Exactly what I wanted for Christmas, a new Marco Reps video

Are the tools actually built for the (much) thicker fibers that are needed to carry the high power?

Who would have tought this is a erbium doped amplifier. Nice one
LOL xD I hau mich weg
Let me guess that was one of your "purchases" lying around where you didn't even bother to look it up...

I can't stop thinking about the tube cracking and the powerful fan blowing the beryllium oxide all over.
Perhaps you could collect it all again and make a beryllium sphere...
You just made my Christmas so much better.

Hi Marco, Can you provide more details on the configuration you did to get the BLDC to bounce back like that, please?

Take me back to my early engineer career... First job was testing erbium fiberlasers. Basically a fiber amplifier rebuilt as a laser

Wanted to post this exact thing, sorry @Marco, but this CoreXY attempt is abysmal, even for testing.
man what a boring paper
Resistor diode array is there for ESD protection for the laser diode, not for reverse protection.

I can't understan thw word at 9:15, what's the technique called? Core axis?
I did not understand a single thing but hey okay you seem to have a plan and knowledge... subbed for that !!!

Marco what a clever guy ..in a mad scientist sort of way
I was not prepared for the Top Gear reference
I dont know if it helps but I just clicked the first 60 or so comment likes to help the youtube algorithm.
Because these videos are magnificent.
So the laser passes from the tube through the fibers into that nozzle?
LASER REVIEW HAHAHAH Great video Marco! Even you are on the latest trends! Keep it up. Very interesting indeed.
Thanks, and happy hollydays to you too 👍😀🎅
How about a pulse xenon-ruby laser cutter?

This video is dope!
What kind of laser is needed for anodizing titanium?

I don't suppose you have any of those 50A drivers for sale? My surface mount soldering fu is lacking...
do the co2 lasers come with a seeing eye dog for use later?
You could use the argon ion laser for interferometry experimentation.
