Dear All,
I’m tempted in buying 50W fiber laser engraving machine and would like to hear some thoughts about them. I’ve particularly interested on Chinese table top, non closure with JPT LP E-50W laser emitter and around $5000 price range. I’ve watched few review videos from YT and they seem to get mostly positive feedback. Are these generally how long lasting devices? Also I’m concerned about the safety and have few doubts. I’m not sure is it even allowed to sell any non enclosed laser engravers/markers in EU. With the enclosure it would be easier to extract the fumes. How bad are the fumes when engraving AL, ST/ST or some plastics which can be engraved by fiber laser or is it the same than welding them? PVC at least is big no no. Is it enough to vent the fumes through HEPA filter or must vent them outside? For eyes, is it enough to wear the laser safety goggles?
JPT seem to have frequency range from 1-600kHz. Others ~20-60kHz. Does wider frequency range allow more material variety?
Thank you in advance
