 I've had the omtech 30 watt Mopah laser for a couple months now and it's time to give you guys a closer look My name is Jim and this is the edge of tech If you remember my unboxing video, I was crazy excited to get this laser Omtech sent this over to me as a loaner unit so I could learn and make some videos and I tell you what I've been learning a ton So today I want to give you a first look at this laser and show you some features of it Let's do it the main tower contains the brains of the operation the main board and a Jpt 30 watt solid-state laser and I got to tell you I absolutely love the red color on this thing I just I don't know why I just love it on the back of the unit It has all the connections you need to run this laser It has the USB ports the protective cover connection, which I'm not exactly sure what that is the foot pedal connection The rotary access and the power connector the power connectors really cool It actually screws in so it can't just pull itself back out It also has a ground cable and as you can see I'm not currently using it on the front of the machine We have that emergency stop button So if you ever need to shut this thing down right away, you just press that in We also have the key switch which turns the laser on and the button to power the laser head So you have to press that button for the Galvo mirrors to actually move when you're firing the laser Now if we move over to the laser platform It's made out of aluminum and it has a ton of threaded holes for holds downs and jigs So you basically just drop your hold down on and screw it right down to this plate That way nothing moves when you're trying to burn it speaking of hold downs and jigs If you're looking to have any CNC'd or maybe even 3d printed with some super strong material check out PCB way They have top of the line PCBs and state of the art CNC and 3d printing services Couple that with a super user-friendly website and really fast shipping and your hold downs and jigs will be sent to your house in no time So check out PCB way using the link in the description below and as always thanks to PCB way for sponsoring this video The upright on the machine is fully adjustable And it uses the handle at the top to move itself up and down to get that perfect focus on your project The Sino or Sino Galvo head contains the mirrors inside that move the laser beam all around And it can do that at up to 7,000 millimeters a second That's absolutely crazy the lens that came with the 30 watt moped that I got was a hundred and seventy five millimeters That gives you about a six by nine by six by nine work area to burn on But that can actually be changed by purchasing different lenses and putting different lenses on the laser There are a ton of different lenses you can get and I have not even dove into that world yet So stay tuned another cool thing about this laser is the red dot guidance that can help you focus this thing very quickly To be fair. I haven't used it. I made a focal stick Per some instructional videos that I had so I'm not sure if this thing is exactly on or not and also it has a laser inside That shines down through the Galvo which shows whatever you're gonna burn on the material You're gonna burn it so you can actually line it up really good just like this Hey real quick if you like this video smash that like button And if you want to see more videos about 3d printing CNC and lasers, please consider hitting that subscribe button I'm on my way to 100,000 subscribers and I'd love for you to be one of them now back to it So there really is a ton packed into this laser and I've been learning a lot So I've been testing things like aluminum business cards stainless steel dog tags and even straight steel But my favorite thing so far has been challenge coins. It takes a lot longer to do but man, are they satisfying? I have to throw a huge shout out to Jay Mac who has been helping me dial in coins and teaching me how to do it in general There is so much to learn about these and Jay Mac has been an awesome resource for me to go to so thank you Thank you. Thank you. Jay Mac. I really appreciate it So that's a quick first look on the omtech 30 watt fiber laser the Mopa laser from omtech I'm gonna have many more videos coming on this thing I'm hoping to do a bunch of project videos which would be a lot of fun And if you want to check this thing out use my link in the description below to save yourself some more money I know this thing is on sale at the time of filming like $600 off, but you can save more by using my link in the description below as well Let me know in the comments what you would use a fiber or Mopa laser for and if you want to see the Unboxing of this video. I'm telling you it was epic check this video out right here
