Hi,

I am looking at purchasing the Laser below, for use with cutting 1.2mm stainless steel.

I'm happy with the communication and backup service of the company, as another business in our state has purchased the same machine (but 150 watt) and the Chinese company has been very good with the whole process, information and backup service. He actually cooked the tube by not air bleeding it properly and they supplied another free of charge.

I guess I'm chasing...

1- Any warnings about purchasing the machine.
2- Any tips on how to initially run it without shortening reci tube life etc, e.g.: milliamps control etc.

Things like air bleeding, water quality / treatment etc etc.Any suggestions or warnings would be gratefully welcomed.

Details...
1.Machine configurations:
#working area : 1300*900 mm
#Beijing EFR 260W laser tube
#Another laser head 60w
#Belt transmission (can be upgraded to ballscrew)
#stepper motor#Rdcam 6332 controller
#Singapore mirrors and lens
#High end cutting head with stepper following up system
#Fulong belt
#CW6000 water chiller
#Taiwan square rails
#Leadshine driver 583/883
# exhaust fan(550w)

Thankyou for reading this far :)

Regard, Chris
