Laser Cut Door

[Gaynelle Alnutt]

Asthe title says I have a Red & Black Chinese 80W laser cutter I bought off of Amazon. Straight to the point, does anyone know where I can get new hinges for the thing that are identical (but hopefully better quality)?

What happened:

After about 100 projects (I know from saved files) and therefore about 400 door openings - both of the black metal hinges sheared right in half! I was left holding the door attached by only the fairly strong gas pistons. Looks like bubbly crap metal casting, but I would expect a hinge to last 100k cycles or more. Temporarily I have disconnected the pistons, and made some handy-dandy duct tape hinges (and constant arm power to keep the door open).

Yes, quick and dirty but works well and will outlast those sintered chinese ones. I got a $10 refund from ebay seller as laser arrived with broken hinges and they only cost me $5. Good service from ebay seller. My tube blew recently and they refunded me $500 so i could get a replacement. So i ended up getting the better tube i was going to replace it with anyway with the refund money! How good is that!!!

bonjour bravo pour votre ide et video je ne parle pas l anglais mais bon j ai un peu compris par compte quelle puissance faut il pour le laser, la machine que vous montrer est t elle bien et le sav serieux car c est une machine chinoise et cela peu etre difficile pour le service aprs vente et piece dtach merci pour votre reponse

Having door mats at the entrance to your home or office can be very beneficial. Best door mats ensure that all the dirt and mud remains outside, and keeps your floor clean.

Perhaps the front entrance to your home needs a refresh; a doormat is the first thing that anyone who walks into your home or office will notice, the more reason why you need to get nothing but the best for your home or office.

Door mats give your floor the elegance they deserve and can be a perfect finishing touch to your entrance. The primary function of a doormat is to ensure dirt and moisture from your shoes do not find their way into your house.

It's interesting to know that you need to have a camera as well when you get a laser engraving machine. I can imagine how the companies in this industry would probably already have the needed tools and equipment. In that case, working with them would be easier and convenient for business owners when they have to get a certain signage or product made.

Other than that, I guess you already checked if all conections are firm.

In one of the Artisan reviews on Youtube (Mpox I think) he overrides the door detection for filming by placing a magnet on the sensor I think. In case your sensor works but the door magnet is in the wrong position or is missing, that could be worth a try.

I have the same issue right now. I just bought mine last week. Where did you fine the bad wire? We have looked everywhere. Updated filmware. Checked sensor with magnets. So frustrating when i spent a ton of money on it. And only can 3d print. Thanks for your help.

Likewise, I have not been able to calibrate the laser because it thinks the enclosure door is open. It is not! However, do I have a different door? Mine does not have magnets, rather it has rubber magnetic strips on the metal frame of the door.

I would like to make a sensor that detects when my car is clear of a certain point. So, when backing in my car to my garage, I would have a beam and sensor. When the beam is broken, an LED light would turn on and then when the beam gets through, the light turns off and I know that the car will clear the garage door.

I would recommend using laser and LDR. This will be very efficient and will not cause any problem due to light or ultrasonic deflecting. It will be precise by mm if you do thing right way. I made a simple porject back in 2005 using laser, LDR and relay.

I am pretty sure that Arduino would be enough for this project since the proper computation should not be that complex. Arduino Uno seems to be the simplest to start, at the same time not being too big for your application domain. However, you could also consider some smaller Arduino model, there would not be any "computational power" problem probably.

In this way, the system would light ON one or more LED(s) whenever the measured distance turns out to be less than some threshold value that you decide (maybe using a test-driven approach), and then light it/them OFF once the distance returns over the fixed threshold.

I cant make out from the picture if you have consider this thought.Install sensor at height so car tail breaks the beam.Also It might not be ideal solution if you have multiple car lets say one Range rover SUV and another hatchback. You might want to consider having multiple sensor from ground to around 4-5 feet.

You want a light sensor like at -sensor-using-arduino/ - the usual way is infrared (same as remote controls), so you can't see it. You might want to blink the light, to get a more accurate signal (i.e. turn the led on; test the brightness; turn it off; test the brightness; find the difference) in different light conditions.

Not an Arduino answer, but.... a friend of mine put his car in the exact place it should be, then hung a tennis ball from the roof, at the right place so it just touches the windscreen. Now, when he pulls into the car, he moves forward until the tennis ball touches his windscreen, and he knows he's in exactly the right place.

(Prior to the introduction of this module, a system would utilize the LSS-2381 Room Interlock Control Module and LSS-2384 Local Interlock Module together to serve a similar function. That option is still available to our clients when preferred, but it lacks the key lockout feature.)

While many customers needs are met with the two dry interlock contacts provided in the LSS-2382 Main Control Module, some customers have more lasers or shutters and require additional dry contacts, which are provided by this secondary module.

Prior to introduction of the LSS-2382 Main Control Module with lockout key, this module was the primary means of arming/disarming the room interlock. This module is still very useful in large lab spaces that have several individual laser stations where it is used as a secondary means to arm/disarm the room.

I was wondering if the ir sensors that are used to prevent a garage door from closing if something is blocking the beam would work with arduino. You can buy these sensors at any home improvement store for $30. I called them safety sensors because they prevent the garage door from closing if there is something in the way (Ex. Kids, pets, etc.)

But you have never told us how you know this is true. Since you posted to an Arduino forum, are you using an Arduino with software you have written? If you want help, please supply enough information.

this is usually caused by a blocked or defective sensor. There could be a torn piece of paper in the paper path which is stopping a sensor from working. Look very closely for any torn paper or a blocked sensor. if you have some canned air, give it a couple hits in the paper path.

I had this error in my M402dn. Opened the front and checked the cartridge area and paper tray area. No jam. Searched for solutions online and read about resetting the printer. Tried every method to reset the printer without success. Removed, inspected, cleaned, and reinserted the cartridge. Nothing. Resorted to compressed air and vacuuming the cartridge area presuming dust was triggering a sensor, but to no avail. Ultimately checked the back of the printer and found a door to open. Voila, there was the jam, in the back-not in the cartridge area and not visible by any means from the front. The error message as to the location of the jam was misleading. Hope this can shave an hour off of your diagnostics.

Well, it's not that simple. Like pretty much every type of door, barrier, or junk blocking your path in Jedi: Survivor, getting through green laser walls requires an ability earned by playing through the story. The very first green wall you encounter can actually be shut down by mind-tricking a stormtrooper into opening it for you, but that's a one-time deal. Every other green wall will appear as red on your map.

About halfway through the main story, you'll get a mission to return to Jedha to consult with Master Cordova. There, Cere gives Cal and Merrin the task of evacuating an ally safehouse before the Empire finds it. This unlocks access to the open desert area of Jedha, which you can optionally explore on your way to the next waypoint.

This is a fairly long, exceptionally cool level that gets even more fun once you learn to air dash midway through. Eventually Cal and Merrin have a standoff with a gigantic octopus drill, and it's around this encounter that Merrin gives you a medallion that lets you pass through green laser walls by air dashing. Congratulations, green laser walls are now green laser gates, and approximately half of Koboh's locked areas are now open to you.

Keep in mind that you can only air dash once, so you still have to be in range of a green gate to push your way through it. Moving through a green gate also resets Cal's jump and dash midair, letting him jump one more time before touching the floor (or chain into another green gate).
