Laser keeps disconnecting on larger jobs

Try running the job at a lower power setting and see if it makes it all the way through.

We’ve seen a lot of disconnection issues with Ortur machines and I’m not sure why they are so much more sensitive than anything else we support.

  • Use a good quality, shielded USB cable, preferably with a ferrite ring at one end at least

  • Make sure the USB connection is secure on both ends, not loose

  • Make sure the power supply is sufficient to supply the laser.

  • Ground the frame of the machine - one user found that the X belt was generating significant static electricity when running back and forth (engraving) and the discharge was resetting the controller.
