I just finished cutting 1mm copper on a baliu LC 1500 OG/RTX with a PRC 3.5kW laser.
The parameters that I used are:
Pierce: 1350watts (super pulse) 900Hz 55%duty 2bar O2
Feedrate: 1800watts (Gated pulse) 785mm/min 2000Hz 97%duty cycle 6-8bar O2.
The focal point was about a mm below the...
Wow, i think I may have twisted some panties. I know that I am not an engineer, nor do I claim to be. I know my limitations with the work I can do. I am a damn good machinist, and a better welder. All I was asking was the chances of going to another company for some engineering type job...

Well, the engineer here was fired and I was tossed into this position. I am starting to sink and need a ton of help.
My question is, " How do...
