I intend to hot rod a diode laser one day when I have the money as a kind of challenge, but not anytime soon. I’ve not dissected the laser module itself, but I am fairly certain you can use another diode of the same power in a like jacket and hook up the rest and it would work fine. In the end, it’s just not worth the cost/hassle. I looked into making a water cooled jacket. My 150 (?) GPH aquarium pump is now sufficient.Īs far as cooling I had looked into all kinds of things like another CPU fan for the top or even rewinding it for high speed. I filled them with putty and drilled them out to be about 1/3 smaller. I initially heated the PVA up and made them narrower but that was a bad idea. IMO he made them a bit too large a diameter so my pump needed to be stronger. It replaces 2 of the side panels with 3D printed ones that have air nozzles pointed at the work space. If you have a 3D printer or know someone who does, I’d just make one. However, the speed is set via gcode 'F' command, the power is set via 'S' command, and in LaserGRBL it is the one you set in 'target.
The only difference between the two is which G-Codes are generated, that could be different. Also you mentioned hooking up air to it what do you use to cool it? Any PC program talk to the machine in a standard language called g-code, that is the same for LaserGRBL and Lightburn.
