I have the omtech k40 that is programed for Lightburn and has been doing great. I noticed when doing bigger projects, the laser will not engrave on the right side. It will keep moving left and right but when it gets to that spot the laser will go off and on. I have the mirror alinement zeroed in and hits the middle of the mirror in every area I test fire it. Do you know what my issue is? I’m attempting to upload a video to help.
Does that mean the tube stops emitting laser light?
If so, then something is terribly wrong with the wiring.
If the tube remains on, then it’s a problem with the beam path from the tube to the material under the lens.
Take good pictures of the scorches on the tape / targets at each mirror at the ends of axis travel and upload them so we can look over your shoulder.
Yeah it will keep moving but when it hits that area the laser light and laser will stop showing. Once it is out of that area it comes back on
That seems different than having the laser tube stop emitting light.
The Mirror 2 beam position is off-center. Take one picture at each end of the Y axis travel, which should show that the two scorches hit the same spot on Mirror 2.
Next, jog the laser head to the middle of the region where it “stops showing” and take pictures of the beam position at all three mirrors. I expect one of the scorches will be very much off-center.
