No, a die would be useless.
Thanks for all the feedback, we have been doing some testing with a laser manufacturer and he was able to cut through 10 layers with no flare-up, by adjusting the settings. So, it looks like we are back in business!

Re: Safety measures for 450 nm 2,8 W laser beam
Hi, Maybe you can try a kind of material called Hard polycarbonate, and there are absorbing dye in the material. The protective band is from 400nm~547nm. The transmissivity of visible light is 69.4%. The price is 620$/square meters. Some laser goggles are made of this material too. Hope the material...

Re: How to cut silicone liner paper multiple sheets
So here's a few more ideas. A metal frame around the edge of the sheet, press all edges so that NO edge is exposed, like a picture frame. Next, a magnet on each piece to be cut out, thus keeping it from flying away and further reducing air between sheets. High air flow/pressure as well. If all of th...

Re: How to cut silicone liner paper multiple sheets
We've had good luck when a stack was bonded together via static, but then the adhesive gooed and made them difficult to separate. BY removing the waste matrix (non-printed label material outside the die line) the adhesive won't be an issue, but I doubt the sheets will lay as tightly together...

How to cut silicone liner paper multiple sheets
I'm trying to cut label liner, silicone coated. We need at least 10 thick. All common logic dictates that you should not cut more than one thick. Are there any tips tricks to cutting more than 1 sheet at a time...? I was thinking something along the lines of high suction to evacuate the air rapidly ...

Re: Laser control software alternative to BenBox
Looks like an Arduino Uno, so GRBL should be usable if you can configure the machine for it.
Otherwise you would need to replace the controller with an Arduino Mega or Due.

Re: Problems with beam strength at larger measurements
Hi, you didn't mention what machine you have, material, tube power, etc. several things that might cause this: 1. (imho most probable) unaligned light path. as your gantry moves away the beam moves further away from the final mirror window. 2. uneven table and beam going out of focus as distance to ...
