Hi engravers,
Does anybody has any experience with Chinese fiber laser? Is it worth to buy one(even though cheaper than branded it is still a lot of money)? I'm looking at a full size 500w machine. Can they actually engrave or just cut?
Appreciate your response.

yeah. that's the one I'm looking at. I want to get some feedback from those who actually using something like the one shown. They all perfect on youtube, but real life might be very different from the video

I have no idea what they are like to use, or how they go value for money,
but when you see specifications like this...
gross power ≤20kg
You have to worry about how the communication / support will go after purchase...
just my 2c worth...
cheers,
Chris
