    Bystronic cutting Parts with hole postions off by 50mm

    We got quoted about $3500 USD to buy the lens failure kit. (with over the phone help for install) I am interested to know how well in how well it works - didn't know if we should get that or not. If it works well it would save a lot down time when a lens go unexpectedly.

    We finaly got back onto this job (after a good clean and replacing bypos mirror & lens) and just cut 100 odd sheets without out problems at 16 metres per minute on rapid parameters with satisfactory cut quality. So it must have just been bad luck to lose a lens at only 200 or so hrs. Thanks...

    Laser Cutting Acrylic

    The cnc control will not let me set the gas pressure bellow .1 bar, I tried drilling an old nozzle out to 4mm when cutting the 8mm last time to see if that was why the top edge of the cut was going frosty. I haven't looked in setup or config to see if this minimum pressure can be changed. Steve
