This page is a Research page for hanging data on Laser Cutting.
Laser Diode Cutting
I like the idea of playing with laser diodes on the 2x4 CNC Machine. Applications that spring to mind are: PCB Stencils(for Solder Paste Stenciling), and Other stencils.
- The guy at Buildlog is my hero.(Mach3 Laser Cutter Setup)
- This page shows how to convert gCode to a signal on pin one of the parallel port.
- I will need to divert pin 1 or possibly look for where it goes on the motor driver board.
- PCB Stencil Materials
- This page seems to be exhaustive regarding the construction of low amperage diode laser drivers.
