So I was curious how your approach worked in regards to that process. I guess I was more curious about your tool chain, and what file format(s) your chosen software needs to work with?Īs mentioned, once of the features I like about RE is the print driver (you can send data to the laser cutter from any application that has a print option). I'm not so much advocating for Windows (or RE for that matter). Laser engravers are in many ways not particularly complex devices a motion controller moves the head in x and y, and the laser is turned on or off when needed. During its lifespan we learned that the K40 Laser Power Supply could not provide enough current to power it and that this was causing lots of dropouts and job interruptions. Originally there was the Cohesion3D Mini board. ![]() Then they bundled some no name PSU and increased the price by 50. I'm more happy to support the guys at Cohesion3D and LightBurn. Cohesion3D Home - Cohesion3D vcrow vccolumn vcemptyspace vccolumntext Welcome to Cohesion3D We have replacement controllers, a rotary attachment, and lots of peripherals so that you can get the most out of your laser cutter, whether that’s a K40 or something bigger. Cohesion3D's controller used to cost 150. ![]() I also did not care for Full Spectrum's practice of forcing a new user of their hardware/software to pay for a "transfer" license for the software. I am not a fan of Windows and prefer Mac OS X and Linux, so I was quick to dump the Windows machine if I could. Jerry, I could not get the old Windows 7 machine that came with the laser cutter to behave. What was missing or made you 'give up' on RE? (just curious is all) without the need to design something intricate in AI or something. ![]() especially if you just need a quick 'something' engraved. I can afford the mini gerbil and the other upgrades, but I have seen next to nothing about real people with experience with them. Thanks for posting this here Pete! (its Jerry from MMS)ĭoes this install a 'printer driver' like the RE software does? Allowing to print from any software program? I see a lot of people comment on the cohesion, and it seems very good, but if I buy it, I have to spend less money on other upgrades because it is 200.
