Hello,
I am up and running with my new laser and have a few basic questions for the pros here. I appreciate in advice any insight you can give me. I have a 80 Watt RECI Shenhui.
1. On the machine there what appears to be an amp meter with a dial. I am going from memory but it looks to go from 0 to 50 amps. What is this actually reading and what should the dial be set on?
2. I have been doing some test cuts today without any issues. Our main use is to dust acrylic and engrave. I have no problem cutting 1/4 inch all day long, great edge. I slowed the machine down and even cut 1/2 inch without any issue, just a bit slow. Question I have is with a Chinese 80W RECI what is the max thickness I can cut that still will look presentable. I am just trying to see if my machine is performing where it should be. I want to hear others that are using the same configuration. If you can also give me some rough setting that would be awesome as well.
Mike
