Hi all
I’ve been looking at the Ray over the last couple of day’s and it seems to tick quite a few box’s on first impressions.
Firstly, I can buy it from Euro warhouse & in the mehod I prefer which is great concerning tax’s, shipping cost.
Is it better to buy from a manufacturer warehouse than a online re-seller…or do they all come from same warehouse anyway?
Then it seems to have a robust frame thats well engineered (as advertised)…no deep dive into component parts mechanics yet! but will do as its very important to work quality/flow and not having to deal with issues down the road.
The work area is pretty good size relative to stability for quality & consistency & small batch work.
The modules seem as good as any and quite impressed by IR module Dof. Although not sure about 20w spot measurement, maybe a bit elongated…but the engraving work looks good…and Kerf and cutting finger joints etc can be managed. can lenses be upgraded.
Would users of SM recommend seperate modules or 20/40 combined?
The outer cover is available with machine at a tempting price and if they perform as advertised and would shorten the learning curve, the time saving would be worth the extra cost.
I do wonder if having a lot more sensors could cause issues and head scratching. Is less wiring and electronics better to avoid downtime? as another wall socket could supply ext exhaust fan etc. and a home built outer cover could also allow for larger material passthrough.
As far as I can tell, the compatability is all ok now for Lightburn…is that correct?
Any opinions or links would be apreciated.
Ps sorry I posted no links to show examples, I am using my phone for all this and cannot access saved pages or leave this site to copy/paste, add to clipboard as if I do I loose all on clipboard by the time I get back here as well as everything I have input to this textbox.
Thank’s
