Hello,

I am looking for the solution my problem. I have Atomstack a5 pro. I cut plywood, but sometimes some lines are not cut off. You can see it on the image below. My settings:

- 100% power
- 300mm/min speed
- 5 reruns.  
I have tried even with 70mm/s and 2 reruns, but sometimes there are not cutted lines.

I suggest you read through this topic as this covers some challenges with cutting on a diode laser.

Having said that, it almost looks like the laser is not in focus for every area of the wood. Is there significant warpage in the wood or is it not lying flat? Notice that even the scorching is not even around all cuts.
