    Pretend it's a car engine. Trouble shoot it. You need spark etc.

    The various components must have their warranties covered by their manufacturers.

    It was the power supply first, then the tube also went bad. Still having the random no fire issues a year later. I have figured out it is the power dial that has a short in it. Its all suppose to be under warranty but bodor just wants me to disconnect it. Which I think is BS. I paid for an operational machine and it has been nothing but a headache. Oh and one of the rods that moves the gantry snapped like a twig. had to wait 3 weeks for a part for that as well. This machine has been down more than it has ran. I was going to sell these for this company, but now. No way. I am going to buy my next machine from DLM Lasers, Made in the USA with as many USA parts as possible and he will train you and teach you how to use the machine if you are new to lasers. He delivers and sets up. https://www.facebook.com/DLMLasers/?ref=br_rs&pnref=lhc

    Thank you for responding Adrian. Take care friend.

    I have 150W, 1300x900. I'd look elsewhere. Search my name and view the issues. Do more research is all I can say. You will be on your own after you get the machine if something goes wrong with it, even though there is a warranty. Takes forever and many hoops to jump through to get the parts. Test this test that, try this, watch this video, do that...yeah good luck.

    I have had no problems with either of my Bodor lasers. As for them wanting you to test this and that, all Chinese laser companies do that. I have heard of owners of epilog lasers going through the seme hoops, before they send a tech! Buying a 1000 - 4000 watt laser, I would fly to China to check out the machine.

    @adrianpage what is the name of your service rep? I'm not having the same experience with Bodor after purchasing a new laser, it came not tested and faulty, it took me a month just to get in touch with support. Can you help me?

    I bought a 1500 watt laser for 150k from Bodor and it has been horrid experience. Believe it or not the IPG laser arrived water damaged.... i did not know this and spent 2 months and hundreds of man hours trying to get the machine running... in the end bodor has still not covered the warranty and told me to take it up with IPG USA the maker of the laser. IPG says the laser has water damage and it is not their fault and i should take it up with bodor. price for repairing laser 15 thousand dollars and so far Bodor refuses to pay it. in the end a horrid experience and still not a working laser and it was delivered 3 months ago.

    Hello Luis,
    Where are you located I can help you with this purchase. I am a salesman for Bodor laser in the US. What type of material are you cutting carbon steel? And, how thick?

    Your post is old but maybe you are looking for a new machine by now?

    Thanks !
    Jeff

    Hello @jeepers94 , that wouldn't be necessary. We have Lasers running production in most states in the US and the customers are willing to let potential clients go see.

    Please let me know if you have any issues. I'm sales for Bodor.
    Thanks Jeff
