Hi Gary,
Well probably a couple of reasons, my Synrad 25 Watt tube was made in 1992 and still working fine so maybe it is not putting out a full 25W.
The slowest speed I can get is 1% and not .1% so my cut speed is 10-times faster than yours and at two passes to cut, that makes it 5-times faster.



I am guessing there is nothing wrong with my laser. What's wrong with yours?

I just hit the "repeat" button on the front panel and off it goes for the second pass, so maybe just 4-times faster.
