RH ..... Dude you need to chill out man! You obviously don't read what I write what so ever! I have never once said anything about a laser doing anything with aluminum I have only asked if it is possible! You are being extremely rude, every where I post you have to interrupt my conversation with...
Okay well what is the deal here? Now the first link is to a 4w C mount 808nm laser diode the second is for a Coherent laser diode bar that's 40w 808nm.
Now is there any difference in quality/use? Is the only difference the mounting type? I see it says it's a 40W bar diode. Is that just a...
Re: NEED HELP! 808nm C Mount Laser
Ya STALKER no offense I'm lost with what your saying I'm with UPAAA on this I have seen with my own eyes a 15W laser cut 20 gauge steel 4" circles no problem.. But okay let's say I get an 8W 808nm. One is 808nm okay for etching? I didn't figure color made a...
Yes Ignore me if you like. but your new to electronics and this is the way to test a laser with the stuff you have. Safely! you would have no problem what so ever doing it this way. and its a good learning experience.
And by the way rh I never Once said this is the appropriate way to drive a...
Well you don't need a 317 to test. You have resistors you said right? And a breadboard? Your good to go no matter what voltage you have coming in. Just set up a voltage latter! All you need is say any more than three of the same resistors. let's say you have a 10v supply to make this easy to...
Hey guys! So I'm trying to set up a laser mounted on the side of my benchtop CNC machine. Now I've been looking on eBay and have found some killer prices on C mount inferred lasers. Now the help I need is I'm not that experienced with lasers but I am with electronics. I wanted to ask you guys...
