Laser cutter focusing laser is out of calibration #203

Closed kenomaerz closed 3 years ago

kenomaerz commented 4 years ago

Yesterday, @Pakue95, @NitramLegov and I found, that the laser cutter focusing help is not calibrated correctly. To achieve best focus, you need to aim the calibration help ~5mm to the right of the actual laser beam, which is not quite optimal.

We probably need to contact the manufacturers for a fix.

How exactly is the focusing supposed to work for this machine? Is it not possible to adjust the calibration help?

@Johannes09 and me took a look at the calibration help (laser pointer) and adjusted it a bit. We'll need to check whether it was enough or not.

Did that work?

I have been using Patrick's calibration helper and have been getting good results. I'll close this for now.
