I will very briefly describe what I did – you don’t just get the list of settings without the dull bit first.įirst, I drew a square and saved it as a png. You can do your own version of the tests. Before I go any further, I want to point out these are guidelines, every piece of wood or other material is going to be different, you may need to increase/decrease power and/or increase/decrease speed to achieve your desired results. I’m not claiming to have all the answers now but what I have done is some extensive testing and produced some basic start points for the 5.5W, 15W, and 40w diode lasers. There are so many variables that the usual answers include “trial and error” and start with low power and increase if needed…. Hundreds of thousands of Google searches have been done looking for the answer to that million-dollar question. Once built and the software of your choice loaded on your computer, (most people use either LaserGRBL or Lightburn), the question most asked about lasers is “What settings do I need to use?”
But, it’s all well and good having the fabulous equipment available, but what can you do with it? Or more to the point, how do you use it? The Yora Laser Module is available in 3.5W, 5.5W, 15W, and 40w versions. The Yora CNC Carving Machine 3018-Pro that many people start their CNC obsession with (it will become an obsession, I promise), can be fitted with a laser too, making it a Yora CNC Carving & Laser Engraving Machine 3018-Pro, with its working area of 30 x 18 cm, which can also be expanded to 30 x 36 cm with the Yora 3018 Expansion Kit.īasic machine decided on, what lasers are available? Just imagine what you could make at that size!
This can be expanded even more with the Yora 6550 Expansion Kit to a massive 65 x 100 cm. This is where YoraHome excels, among the machines they have on offer are diode laser engravers including the Yora CNC Laser Engraving Machine 6550 with its large working area of 65 x 50 cm. When starting a new hobby, everyone wants the best equipment that they can afford that will allow them to do everything they want and probably even more. You’ve thought long and hard about it and decided that laser engraving could be your thing.
