I’m trying to import a test https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2243854/files
The file I’m importing is a vector. The problem I’m running into is when I import the file everything is there like it should be. However, when I preview, it removes all the text and almost everything. I’m posting an example of what I’m seeing. On the left is the image before preview, the middle is after the preview. The one on the right is the cut file, and I think that file seems to be OK.
I didn’t know that. Anyways, I sent them a message.
For that I can just easily make a png of that area, and go from there. In fact, I have a better idea with that since I can take a image of something small, do multiple of them on the same run. Each at different speeds.
When dealing with grayscale to get better images. Do you change the dwell time or the work speed? I’m finding I have to do 3 or 4 runs to get a good picture. Here is an example of what I’m working on. https://photos.app.goo.gl/7Kk6rPaGsRC7jwGa8
Increased the dwell from 5 to I think 9 for the one on the top, and I decreased that to 6.5 for the bottom. The one at the bottom that is 2 passes, but the one on the top is 1 pass. I increased the dwell time because I found even with changing the work speed from about 1000 to 250 it didn’t help much at all. And it took 3 runs with a dwell time of 5 to get something you can at least understand what it is. Like 1 run you couldn’t really tell anything happened outside of darker parts. Oh and this is with the power level at 85%. I’ve tried 100%, but after the first layer is burnt. It seems to burn really quick under it. I’m using this btw https://www.amazon.com/Unfinished-Wood-Pieces-Decoration-Supplies/dp/B07C4YFB7Q/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=diy+wood&qid=1582142583&sr=8-4 I think they are cork, but I’m not 100% sure.
hahahaha, welcome to the “black art” of lasering , trial and error your settings will teach you a lot. NOTE: you will have to change the settings if you change the material being lasered. Sometime even the same material requires changes. I have experienced wood of the same type requires changes; due to its grain and moisture content.
Hi,
have tried to use Inkscape,
all .svg versions and the .png,
but no result…
The .svgz was calculating more than 10 minutes then it should do the g-code,
afterwards i quitted… Only 71kB, so should be quick.
The others show nothing or only tiny squares and circles…
Hey,
I have big troubles with .svg cutting templates in Luban. Luban does not find the vector’s correct etc… So I read you use LaserWeb. What configurations I have to do that I can use Laserweb? What Setting are neccasary in LaserWeb to cut on Snapmaker A350?
Thanks in advance…
Chris…
Hey @chris0803, i don´t use laserweb, sry.- It was just to load/engrave/cut the testfile from the thread creator.- i usually use snapmakerjs to engrave and cut things.- i have snapmaker original so i am not sure luban is fully compatible yet.
may u attach the file which you want to cut?
which ending is your file?
May you test following file to load?
Following is .png
Hi,
have as well troubles with Luban…
Cannot load any file.
Have now tried your png, but after loading in workspace, nothing happens…
The svg is not donwloadable for me, think its only the “space” for it.
May i attach a file from me, and you try it?
Tried with inkscape, but cannot load it as well.
The svg makes nothing, the dxf ( cannot upload here ) starts but has no ending…
Regards,
Wolfgang!
PS: cant see my upload in the web, but have it here on my box…
Have here the file with name and the upload code, but not working…
The svg seems to be empty, the dxf i can open in irvanview, but its not what i have saved…
Cannot bring them back into inkscape…
But that makes no sense…
Sorry, i am only a silly user, but that sucks…
Why is it so complicated to transfer files???
Have no idee why its not working…
Originaly it should be possible to load it up as jpg into Luban, or?
My version is 11 days old, so up to date.
Same to inkscape…
Hey, i simply loaded your Picture which you posted above and loaded it to luban using “vector”
After that i take the checkbox “fill” and viola, it looks great.
so,
after some tries i got this, but laying 70 degree counter clockwise and looking shitty…
What means via vector?
Was using S&W as preset.
And dont understand why i gave it a size in inkspace, and now its much bigger…
