minus-squareClay_pidgin@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·22 days agoDo laser engravers have a consumable component? It’s not like there’s a tank of liquid photons.
minus-squareSteamymoomilk@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·22 days agoAssuming its a CO2 tube laser. It does have a certain runtime until the tube burns out. And its like $300 for a new tube depending on the model and wattage
minus-squareNotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·21 days agoHey boss, here’s $300 and I’ll use it whenever and as much as I want.
minus-squareBread@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·22 days agoThe laser part is consumable, albeit very slowly. Moving parts age with wear and tear.
minus-squareTwotone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·21 days agoDo laser engravers take much time to do a run? I suppose time is consumable if there’s a queue of stuff needing to be done.
minus-squareManzas@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·21 days agoKinda, the lens can burn out and the bearings can wear out, but I wouldn’t be concerned that’s just regular maintenance.
