    Cutting trouble

    Hello again, In my case (PRECITEC HEAD FIBER LASER) I have a protective window above 200mm of the nozzle, and sometimes, it gets points of "dirt" and it makes the cut unstable or it makes impossible to cut. If it is possible I clean it, if not, I have to replace it for a new one. Hope it...

    Cutting trouble

    Lead-In Length

    Help cutting SS 10mm - 3 kw Rofin Laser (New to the Laser World)

    Thank you for the answers, so you think with this resonator I can manage to achieve a clean cut? I didn't had time to experiment, but i've contacted my Machine support, and they said it would be very hard to have a clean cut because i'm using the full capacity of the laser. In my opinion, I...
