Hey everyone. Thank you in advance for the help. I'm so happy to have access to a forum with so much knowledge.
I have an 8 month old Epilog Fusion 32 60w laser machine. i use it daily in my manufacturing business. The machine typically runs around 6-8 hours a day cutting acrylic. The acrylic is pretty much always .25"/6mm thick. The current settings I have on my machine are 100% power and 3% speed. Most of the time the parts cut all the way through, but every now and then I have some issues separating the parts. One thing that I have noticed is that the laser doesn't seem to fire at 100% around the corners only on a straight line. I'm importing the CAD file drawn in Autocad into Coreldraw so I'm wondering if this has anything to do with my laser not firing around corners at 100%. I've attached a video showing what I'm talking about. Can anyone give me any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?
I have also attached a CDR file of what part you see in the video.
