Best place to buy replacement mirrors

[Jason Wright]

Just finished a 3 day session cutting thick leather for some key fobs, those that cut thick leather know the smoke produced, I cleaned the lense a few times throughout the session but found I was knocking the power up and the speed down several times as it went on, I just assumed as the machine is nearly 2 years old I might be getting a tube failing,

After I'd done what I needed to do I tested a cut on some 3mm acrylic, it didn't cut through, upped the power a fair bit and still not going through, cleaned the lense and still the same, then cleaned the 3x mirrors, hey presto cuts properly again, even went back and cut some of that leather again and it cut perfectly even at slightly lower power than I first used.

So it looks like a mirror clean was needed, however there's a bit of pitting on a couple so thought it best to get a spare set of mirrors and a lense.

Where's the best place to try, omtech don't seem to sell them *that's the machine I have

Hi Jason,

Can you confirm what mirrors and lenses you actually need?

Diameter, thickness and material type for the mirrors e.g. are they gold coated silicon mirrors or silver molybdenum mirrors.

Diameter, focal length and laser source power for the lens?

I may have something suitable in stock at LaserUser.com. I'm based in South Wales by the way.
