I've been reading here alot but hadn't actually post. Well I just bought a 20w galvo q switch fiber laser and been playing around with it and 5 weeks. The y axis just stop working in the middle of a project. It was marking fine and then it would only mark straight horizontal lines. I opened the lens and found the y axis mirror doesn't move. Anyone with this similar problem? The machine is only 5 weeks old. The laser source is maxphotonics. The galvanometer scan head is ouya scanhead10. I think I'm just unlucky and got a faulty galvanometer, but it's past the 30 days return time and they won't accept a return. It costs more for me to ship the whole machine back and wait 30-45 days for them to repair and ship back. I have a personalized gift shop that can only go 10 days without this engraver. Should I just replace the scanhead? I found a similar spec to the ouya scanhead10 at https://www.aliexpress.com/item/fibe...208.0.0.MyveVU
When I turn on the machine only the x axis mirror moves, the y mirror just doesn't move at all. Everything else seem fine. Anyone had this same problem but it's not the y mirror motor? I believe the control board is also inside the unit, so instead of replacing just the motor I'd just replace the whole scan head. Time is not on my side. Shipping cost DHL Express for this machine (25kg) is about $400 one way. So it would cost me $800, the galvanometer I found is about that price. I'm just afraid to buy it only to find out it doesn't fix the problem.
