Hi Sven,

yep some Bad Engineering overall not in the construction or fit area but they show a lack of understanding about the Laser beam having width prior to the Lense/s. It wouldn't cost anything to do it right their end it just needs a kick in the pants to register ;)

Nice Modelling too 8-)

Hi Troops,

Have just been trying to setup my K40 with this particular cutting head and encountered this very issue. After much playing around I came to the same conclusion that the relationship between the incoming beam and the mirror was not correct. That is what led me to this site.

Thanks for confirming my thoughts.

Cheers B Lo
