Hi Everyone, I am new to this forum and lately have been reading up quite a bit on this forum as I plan on buying my first laser cutting machine. My work would mainly consist of cutting paperstock, acrylic, MDF and wood (plan to do less of engraving initially). I have zeroed in on Shenhui Laser Machine (Model SH-G690) with 80 watt RECI tube and plan to buy it direct from their factory in Lioacheng, China and have been in touch with Sofia Liu on Skype. She has given me the following configuration:
LASER ENGRAVING MACHINE SH-G690 (80w-100WXS2 /220V EURope plug/20F50.8)
Configuration: Gaz output on back door
1. Laser tube RECI W2X1.25m.
2. Motorised up & down table
3. Alum knife table with Honeycomb.
4. Air pump (Resun)
5. Worktable size 900x600mm
6. One visible red dot
7. Stepper motor (stepdriver)
8. Taiwan PMI guide rail & Germany belt.
9. Air assist nozzles
10. LaserworkV8 supported Coreldraw & AuotCAD.
11. CW3000 water chiller.
I would like some advice from the forum members to guide me on some of the technical terms (80w-100WXS2 & RECI W2X1.25m) and would also like to have some advice regarding which optional accessories to order, which ones to replace/change from the above list, which extra lenses to order (ZNSE), spare parts, etc. Also I would like to know the price difference between the CW3000AG and CW5000AG chillers and some advice about Master Airbrush TC-20T air compressor.
Thank you all in advance.
