Hi!
We currently run a G.weike 1390 150W along with a tiny Laserpro Venus 12W. It's a good combo, one does what the other one doesn't.
But we are struggling with reliability problems. You can't always trust these machines (especially the G.weike)
So we are planning on purchasing a Speedy 400 with an 80w tube, along with the lamella table and aluminum grid table. And with the passthrough option.
If anyone here has a similar machine, we would love to hear what your thoughts are on the machine. Things to look out for etc.
Also have a few specific questions (guess we could also ask the retailer directly, but since they are not a direct Trotec subsidiary, they might not know a lot):
- Does it have a built in flow regulator for the air assist? If not, can you mount one before the laser, without it affecting the air-flushed optics, etc.? Is that on a separate input?
- Is there a relay controlled outlet for the exhaust fan?
- Can you store jobs on the machine? (I'm guessing not, since it doesn't have a display)
- How good is the Jobcontrol X software? How does it compare to the chinese Lasercut software? Not in terms of which one is better, but in how they work. (if anyone here has used both)
- Is the smartphone connectivity app standard? It wasn't listed as an option on the offer the retailer gave us.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
