    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    @mark-in-dallas : thanks it is really a good thing to know about the 405nm , if i knew it i would have gone for 405nm first that is what i thought first but then everybody continue talking about blue diodes what would be the price range for a 2W , i found 5W for 135Dollars i should have gone...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    ok , i am more and more thinking that i should try them both i totally get the idea rhd is expressing , but i don t really have any idea of the minimal size of the 445 beam , for now the only thing is that i can t find 700mW 405 diode. so i ll try the 445mn first , and buy a 405 as soon as...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    this is strange , do you have a load at measuring time? because if you measure without load , it would be like short-cutting the output , and if you do it with the diode and spiky probs you have a high risk of not having a perfect contact permanently creating a sparkle and killing your diode ...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    i cant find diodes superior to 300mw at Modwerx (except a 1W 445nm) i can t find a user with the exact name of Glenn. -does these glasses will work wit a 405nm laser? -should i keep the 405-G-2 Glass Lens W/Focus Ring 30% Increase Over Aixiz -is the standard Aixis module will be sufficient...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    good to know , do you think the hardware i was choosing has to be upgraded if i go for a 405 ? (lens , module , diver ) i was thinking the A140 is a 1500mW diode (right?) , and i was thinking running it at 1W would be quite good as it will have to cut for around (max) 1 hour long (but i can...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    Hi rhd , thank you for the info , could you explain me more please ? -what is the "12x" does it mean something or is it the name? -what means "single-mode" i don t know that much about laser , i started reading the forum just few days earlier with this post so this is the reason why i was...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    waouw , Cyparagon , thanks , you know a lot about the driver ! i understood a lot better but i still have some blurry spots -i give the driver just a few mA at 6volts , and i get something such as 1Volt 1Amp (=1W,because P=U*I)? -what if i give it 5Volt at 5Amp , would i get and output like...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    soooo, it s complicated for me , i ll say everything i think i understood , and if somebody know about the driver please tell me if i am right -this driver will never enter the aixiz modul -this driver will need a heatsink if i want to drive it over 250mA or over 5,5V -the TTL is the M+ is...

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    Thanks Cyparagon, if i understand it right , i buy this FlexMod instead of the FlexDrive right (because it is not good to do the on and off thing)? i started reading the user manual , i ll post more questions once i finish it.

    my first laser , driver question for cutting

    hello this is my first thread (but a bit following this post) i am about to by my first laser from DTR s shop ,so i am going for a A140 in module plus the 405-G-2 Glass Lens and the flex on the side i will be using this laser as a laser cutter as it is (already over my budget) way less...

    Advice on laser for CNC applications

    thanks , i am thinking that the 445nm A140 Diode In Module With Leads & Aixiz Glass Lens at $60 is a good option for my budget but can you advise me about the lens ? will it be focusable ? can i get a really sharp point with this ? what about minimal distance between the laser and the paper...

    Advice on laser for CNC applications

    thanks a lot for the info that will help me a lot , could you tell me where to get info about the Aixiz module , or do i just google it? i was hopping to cut white paper , but if i can cut only black it is still ok maybe i ll be able to slow down enough to get my machine cut white paper...

    Advice on laser for CNC applications

    that is the perfect info i was looking for but does somebody know where to get the cheapest possible , i have a budget to buy a laser that can cut under 70 dollars (and sent to france) what about Infra Red lasers , i thought they were the best for cutting and why is blue expecially good for...
