Redsail Laser Help...

[ivirscar]

Hello Guys

In october, I purchased a 40watt laser unit from Redsail laser in Ca. The machine is EXCELLENT for cutting acrylic using a plotter file BUT when I go to etch a BMP or JPG file, the machine etches the pic with an "italic" appearance It prints exactly like printing an italic font or something. The picture seems to have a drift to it. No matter how many lines I print or how detailed the pic is, it always comes out with the italic look. If I etch a plotter file, it comes out much better with a slight stagger in small areas. I've checked the belt tensions thinking this was the culprit but to no avail... Has anyone with a laser machine experienced this problem?


Thanks in advance!

weird, i had the same problem before but with Solustan Software,
the problem is the polarity that the motor driver is expecting on pulses, you are loosing 1 step per each direction change.

I think the problem is the Parameter setting, you need adjust the parameter
