Genmitsu FL55P 5.5W Fixed Focus Laser Module Kit for Genmitsu 3018-PRO, ProverXL 4030, Cubiko CNC Router Machine

I wasn't expecting to much from this. After all, how much can 5.5 watts do? Well I found out it can do quite a bit and I'm very happy with the module.

burns nice

Works just fine, and for an intro laser on a small CNC it works great. It isn't going to do any serious cutting, so just get that right out of your head. It can cut paper, and cardstock. The woods it can cut are so thin that trust me, you don't have any (a couple mm max). It is great for engraving on wood, tile (using some tricks that the internet is happy to teach you) and some other light materials. It can mark dull stainless steel (not bright) using tricks the internet can teach you. Mostly its great for engraving on wood. There are techniques for glass, but I haven't tried them -- However I believe they work. For the cost, its a good unit, it always works as expected and delivers consistent results. Really for a beginner, thats the most important thing.

This product is way overpriced for the quality of it. I used it to only do one small image which was about 2in X 3in and took the laser off to try the engraver and when I put it back on it would not burn any designs anymore. The laser would fire and the head would move as if it was doing something but when done it had not made even the slightest mark on the wood. I would just save your money and not waste time by getting a little bigger setup and put a little more money into it

It was the wrong one for the machine that I have.

We were could only get a <5V reading. When we looked at the wiring we saw that the wires were not consistent from one end to the other. The black wire went from the middle of the connector on one side to the end of the other connector. We were unable to get the laser to turn on because of this.

spent days trying to get this to work, nothing worked bought a Sclupfun laser and was up and running in three minutes. My advice is don't try to get a CNC to work like a laser, just go out and buy a dedicated laser for the same amount of money.

Good thing too have

Gut 👍

Ease of installation and great build quality

Der Laser hat wirklich viel Power. Dünnes Balsaholz schneidet er mit Leichtigkeit in zwei bis drei Durchgängen. Ich kann die negativen Bewertungen nicht nachvollziehen.

Has been working for a long time and am very pleased.

Also die Leistung ist nicht wirklich ein 5,5Watt Laser. Ich kriege bei 100% Leistung keine 3mm Pappel, bei 230mm/min und sechs Durchgängen durch. Wenn ich noch mehr Durchgänge mache, dann bringt mir auch das tollste Air-Assist nix mehr. Selbst bei neun Durchgängen schafft er es nicht 100% überall durch. Lächerlich. Dieser Laser hier ist super empfindlich was die Spannung angeht, wenn er unter 12v rutscht, ist die Leistung einfach unterirdisch. Hatte ein 4A Tischnetzteil angeschlossen, dass lieferte im Betrieb 11,5v. Schneiden war dann gar nicht mehr möglich. Gravieren ging. Mit einem 8A Netzteil und einem XT15 Stecker geht es auf jeden Fall besser, aber wirklich gut find ich das alles nicht. Für knapp über der hälfte des Preises kriegt man ein Komplettgerät... inkl. Laser, Rahmen, Motoren, Riemen, Verkabelung, Netzteil und Mainboard, fertig zusammengestellt und eingestellt, ebenfalls mit 5,5 Watt. Da ist dieser Laser hier unverhältnismäßig teuer und die Leistung eher nicht so gut.
