Hi
I have a CR Laser Falcon 10W + LaserGRBL
I use Inscape to design and export png format file or simply save in svg format.
In both case (png or svg) , when engraving there’s a gap between the frame of the object and the fill of it.
I attached a picture of the result.
Can you please help to understand the root cause and to fix it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Im having similar issues with my 40w laser. I have squared my frame loosened and tightened every screw ive seen every expert do in videos. No one has responded to my post here. My last resort is to try to calibrate my machine in lightburn. I havent tried it yet, off to the store for a digital caliper, but i figured i’d share the video i found with you. Fingers crossed this is the fix we need.
Was this done with line and fill??
My get around is to use image.
Takes a lot longer but at 78 I’m in no hurry.
Hi Breonna, thanks for your suggestion.
I tightened every screw and particularly the screw on the laser block. The output looks much better now even if it’s not yet perfectly aligned. I don’t know how far I can tighten these 2 screw.
I will make other test in the coming days.
Thanks again for your help.
Don’t know if this has been answered yet, but from my understanding you need to do a firmware update…
Supposedly there is a fix for this issue in the latest firmware…
So I suddenly faced the miss alignment issue as well, but I actually managed to fix it…
I’m not sure exactly which step fixed the issue or if all of them did something, so I’ll just share exactly what I did:
In the Lightburn software I went to settings, then the display tab and then I activated “Filled rendering”.
On my Falcon I slightly loosened all the screws for each tripod, to ensure that each of them are seated correctly, then tightened them in a x pattern…
Then I slightly loosened the bolts and nuts for the wheels above and below the rails and loosened the belt one axis at the time, slightly moved it back and forth a little bit for the wheels to be seated correctly, then tightened each wheel slightly then the next, then the next until all was tightened properly… and lastly I tightened the belt…
I did this for each side and the rail with the laser module…
And now there’s no more miss alignment…
