My Gweike laser was working fine, it recently started saying I have the material thickness set to or near zero. I did not even know you can set the material thickness. Anyone know why this is showing up and how to fix it?

Any of you out there consistently cut half-inch acrylic? I did it once by trial and error and because my settings were wrong, I actually damaged my edges a little bit. I only have one piece to get one shot at this.I have access to a shared machine, which is 100 W. We have a 4 inch cutting head In which I don’t have that much experience with.Can you...

I have an Atomstack A70 with a movable z axis, the issue is that when I home the machine the z axis does not move up. I can move it with the move buttons and with a z home macro $HZ. The x and y axis home as they should. Thanks.

Just curious how the folks here have found using certain places on the X/Y table for placement of the work material ?I noticed, and makes sense, alot of folks use the back left corner to set up a square for dropping in material or maybe a work jig to engrave or cut.This makes sense as this is the best point for the mirror distant and it should fol...

I discovered after scanning some letters that the “insides” of some letters (think the “bowls” in capital B) were separate from the “outside” of the letters. I know I can Group the two objects (inside and outside) but the grouping can easily (for me) be undone accidentally. It appears that the only way of permanently joining them is to Weld them. H...

Hi all, I’ve been running Lightburn on an Ortur LM3 for about a month now, and a new issue has developed.I’m running a batch of bookmarks with this program, and it starts up fine, frames my object in workspace center, and runs the program in workspace center. But then…IF I PRESS START AGAIN: It repeats the program, but about 30mm to the left.IF I F...

So I have a Creality Ender 3 S1 Plus with 5W laser module set up. It has not been cutting at its full power, because it cut the same material at the same speeds in Creality Print. So I found out that the S-Value Max setting needs to be set to your machine. My problem is I don’t know what setting to set it to. I’m including a picture of my machine s...

I purchased a new laser and computer and downloaded light burn onto the new computer…which is an updated version compared to what I have been using. I check all my settings to make sure they match my other computers/lasers as the new laser is the same as another one I use. When I go to use it, it frames fine but when I try to engrave the laser head...

Hi. I am attempting to use a workflow that generates the following svg i need to import into lightburn. When I import it, the font reverts to Ariel. If I ungroup everything, I can change the font but that is a big time waste. I could also export as paths, but I would prefer to maintain the ability to edit the text. Is there a way to address this? T...

Hi, can you please advise. Is there any way to ensure that the beginning (3-5 mm) is also cut through when cutting the poplar plywood? I can increase the power or decrease the speed, but then the rest will be pretty burnt. A ramp like a cnc milling machine would be good. Thanks.

Machine: Raycus 30w Fiber laserComputer: WindowsMy Raycus fiber laser stopped working. Actually, I do not think it ever worked correctly. I was never able to engrave metal with it.I have been using it to engrave water bottles for a few months. I noticed that the engraving was getting lighter (not removing all the paint) after an hour or so of use...
