Hi All
I just joined yesterday generally because I came across SarbarMultimedia on youtube whilst looking for information on CO2 and Fibre Lasers.
I have a 30W Fibre Laser and have just placed and order for a dual headed 180W + 90W Metal and non-metal cutting CO2 laser 1300X900 cutting area, Z adjustable table with blades, no honeycomb here (thanks Russ) and a 30W MOPA Fibre Laser for marking colour on stainless steel. I'm am setting up a new business offering Laser Cutting and Marking services and hoping to be importing a few machine for sale as the prices on Fibre Lasers are becoming more affordable. I hope to learn if I can and share what I know.
All the best
Precision Laser Solution

Welcome Neil, you sound like you are immersed in lasers. I have always been curious about fiber lasers and how marking in color could work? Gene

Hi Gene
Well I am trying to setup a new small business so need a few machines to cover all eventualities.
MOPA Fibre Lasers user a wider frequency rage than the standard Fibre Lasers and it is the frequency that affects the colour but only on stainless steel although it also give a good black on Aluminium. Once I have my machines I plan on doing some tests and posting some videos on my YouTube channel. With my 30W standard Fire Laser I can get some colour variation reflecting greenie blues and purples. but mainly browns for engraving and shiny reflective silvers which I think would polish out it I tried hard enough.
Regards
Neil
