Contents
Title
Fibre Laser marker/cutter
Proposer
Ben (plexer)
Date proposed
02/09/2022
Date for Decision
1-3 months
Cost
Approx £5000
What is being asked for
50w Fibre marking laser machine Can be used to mark on a variety of materials including metals and plastics Can cut thin metal sheet <1mm
Possible machine that could be purchased
Why/how this will be good to have
Whilst the current 600x400mm CO2 laser is useful for processing plastics and woods it cannot effectively mark or cut metals
A fibre laser will allow thin sheet brass, stainless steel etc... to be cut and would be potentially useful to the model makers i.e Tim and also SMD electronics people as solder paste masks could potentially be cut.
The marking capabilities for metals and plastics allow for more techniques to be used by other members
Who is supporting the project
A poll was run on Slack and these people expressed an interest in a fibre laser
