I've been inside Universal Laser Systems lasers. The laser doesn't have
a throttle, just an on/off for the beam, and it's like this:
The beam is about 0.008" dia, 1/125th of an inch.
If you specify <100% power in vector mode, there is a Pulse Per Inch
(PPI) factor used. If you specify 50% pow
Long thread but Ben created a Hal component to do rastering with the printer
port.

Linuxcnc works fine for Laser cutting ,
Laser rasterising is a totally different matter , and needs to be looked at
from a different perspective
it also depends on how your laserbeam is switched , and the modulation type
used .
their is some limited information regarding rasterising on the Wiki Pa
If you have problem with PWM signal generation there are plenty of cheap
micro controller development board available although protocols may be
worse. I guess it could be an idea to search m-codes for "professional"
laser cutters or maybe reuse codes usually used for spindle.

That's Mach :-)

I think the operative phrase is TANSTAAFL, Todd. I have worked for
people who did not understand that, for short periods of time.
I have worked for those that did understand it well for
Rastering performance is an absolute requirement.
Also, I've run into problems with machines (Universal Laser Systems,
older ones at least) trying to do a whole lot of complicated vectors, or
even just a circle. Or, a dotted line made it lose its mind. Poor
trajectory planning on some cases
Hmm.

Looks like they're saying M62 actuall takes effect slightly before the
G-code command executes, which could be a problem.
How would you tie in requested power and modulate the power according to
the instantaneous linear speed
hey aren't the brightest, or most computer
literate group in there. More proof, you get what you pay for employee wise.

I still haven't built my 3' X 5' 80W CNC laser, but it'll be controlled
by LinuxCNC when I do. I've had a big pile of laser parts for almost
three years. Maybe later this summer, if I finally find some mojo.

M62 works better and does not break blending.

Having some preliminary thoughts about LinuxCNC's appropriateness to be

Can it be a good tool for lasering?
