Just for fun.

Thanks yesterday I made a direct fresh air hose adapter so that my lens stays cleaner. The hose goes to the side of my cabinet and I also placed a small 12 volt computer fan on the outside of the cabinet there, to get enough fresh air into the hose. I am now testing with 0.5 y axe and I load a picture directly in uccnc plugin no filters at all. I hope that the resolution becomes better.

Thank you for helping me like this

Hi Andre99,

If it’s any help, I never get involved with d.p.i – I just download my photo or image (in the highest resolution I can) then (consistent with the UCCNC allowance) load it into the UCCNC Laser Engraving Plugin, select Grayscale (Laser mode 1), select the desired size and Y scan distance. Do a partial trial run to set my correct laser power level then go for it.

You don’t really need to see more of my work but I have attached my cardboard lasered cat image just for reference.

What is the wavelength of the laser you are using ?

Tweakie.

What are your settings I try to do my best but I stay with little ditty picture.
I putt y on 0.04 and speed 1500.
What settings did you use ???

[Tweakie.CNC]

My Y was 0.15mm and my speed 4,500mm/min. (my laser is 40Watt).

Aha oke yes you have a c02 laser yes that's why my resolution is different.
But I keep trying, I just cut a cardboard box in pieces so enough test
material.
I'm testing nog a new picture wanna look how that comes out.

Testing white tiles but the trick is to find the right paint for it.

And the same one a ceramic Tile 148x148mm
Further playing with cardboard is fun cheap material for testing.

Excellent work, my congrats on your progress.

I'm getting closer and closer to perfection, it is hard to learn but
I will go own. My Opt laser 6 watt with Uspot lens works perfect.
Today I made this tile 10x10cm
Further I go an tweak more to get better result and higher resolution.

Looking good.
