Image on the left if newer firmware the image on the right is master firmware
Did you use the exact same image without any changes for each firmware? I like the new firmware overall, but the older master firmware seems to have more contrast, revealing some details that were lost using the newer one.
The only difference is the image on the right was done with stock lens and the image on the left was with the new lens you sent me
I also just noticed the direction of the grain of the wood is different which effects contrast as well
Now that’s one heck of a controlled test… j/k lol!
Yeah I know it’s not a controlled test but going back to the original head would mean a total realignment of the laser… and I don’t want to do that again. Also working with ply wood of any kind is unpredictable from piece to piece…
Has your spot size changed at all? Because on the newer firmware version (left) it seems that the engrave rows are closer & less liney (if that is even a word) in result.
Just out of curiosity on this image, What kinds of speeds and mA were you running? I’m watching your progress and I’m waaaaay behind… I’m still burning everything dialing it in… I’d also be interested to see your config… I wonder if I messed up any settings…
