We typically test various materials by adjusting the laser's power and speed to find the perfect balance for each type.

For instance, while crystal laser engraving requires low power and high precision, materials like wood or acrylic might need higher power settings. Application scenarios vary widely: the 5W model is perfect for detailed work on delicate materials like paper or thin wood, whereas the 20W model can handle tougher materials like thick acrylic or soft metals, making it suitable for industrial applications.

How to build a flat workplane for Longer B1 - LONGER
How to build a flat workplane for Longer B1

Longer B1 is a Laser Engraver characterized by an output of 20w or 30w or 40w, depending on the user's preference, and a large working area of 450 x 440 mm. In this way, each customer can meet their own needs, both in terms of power and size.

However, in order for the entire work area to be fully usable, the surface on which Longer B1 has been placed must be totally flat and level. This, in fact, is very important as the laser module must always be at the same distance from the work surface, so as to always maintain the right focus distance. If the plane is irregular, there may be some points where the focus distance is correct, some points where the distance is too short, and some points where the distance is too great; Obviously, in places where the distance is too large or too small, it happens that the focus is lacking, and therefore the laser engraving inevitably loses quality at these points.

To effectively solve the problem, you can try to grind the work surface, especially when the worktop has only small irregularities, in the order of a few millimeters. To rectify the worktop, you can proceed in this way: using wooden boards (taking care to choose them perfectly flat and without curves) you proceed to create a first layer to be screwed onto the worktop. Then, again using other wooden boards, a new layer is created, to be screwed onto the previous layer in the opposite direction.

In this way, each layer tends to reduce the curvature error of the workplane, and the more layers are added, the greater the grinding of the workplane. Usually, for small irregularities, two rectified layers are sufficient to make the irregularities of the worktop negligible. At the end of the procedure, the surface will allow the laser module to always have the same distance at every point of its engraving area, and therefore the entire area of 450 x 440 mm can be used correctly without losing quality due to poor focusing.

Finally, to protect the newly created worktop from accidental damage caused by the laser beam, as well as improve the engraving and cutting quality, you can get the Longer Honeycomb Working Table. Its structure is similar to that of a honeycomb, and it is made of aluminum and steel. Thanks to the presence of regular holes, this surface allows the laser to pass through the machining and thus cut the material more easily, while also leaving gaps for gases and particles produced during the cutting process to escape. In addition, the honeycomb minimizes contact between the material to be cut and the worktop, reducing the risk of damage to the worktop itself; In addition, the honeycomb structure provides solid support to the material being processed, preventing the surface of the material from bending or deforming during laser cutting. Longer Honeycomb Working Table, available in various sizes, is certainly an essential accessory to complete the Longer B1 worktop in the best possible way.

Small businesses are ditching cookie-cutter products and embracing laser engraving, the once-secret weapon of giants. Now, entrepreneurs infuse their creations with individuality, thanks to brands like Longer, a leader in 3D printing and laser engraving innovation.

The Laser B1 isn't just a tool; it's a workshop revolution. This 30W powerhouse opens a world of possibilities: detailed logos on coasters, heartfelt messages on jewelry, and personalized phone cases that tell unique stories. It's the key to unlocking a future where every creation is a bespoke masterpiece, as distinctive as the artisan behind it.

Background of Longer

Longer was established in 2016 by two brilliant professionals Dr. Law from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Dr. He from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. With their passion for technology, they wanted to make great changes in the 3D printing and laser engraving landscape. Their secret weapon? A deep understanding of these game-changing technologies and a bold vision – to make them accessible and affordable for everyone, not just big corporations.

Fast forward to today, and Longer's journey is nothing short of impressive. They've ripped RepRapPro, a leader in 3D printing, and unbridled a whole line of ground-breaking products. However, the Laser B1 is a pioneering product, a testament of the unwavering commitment of its founders in creating innovative technological products that can be used by creators, entrepreneurs, and makers from all walks of lives. So, next time you see something laser-etched that makes you say "wow," remember Longer – the name behind the magic, fueled by the dreams of two brilliant minds.

Introducing the Laser B1 Engraver: Your Small Business Superhero in a Box

Its expansive A3 work area provides the flexibility to tackle projects of all sizes, from tiny treasures to wall-sized masterpieces.

Yet, the Laser B1 is more than just muscle. It's a speedster, fueled by a lightning-fast 32-bit chipset that races through engravings at up to 36,000 mm/minute. Less waiting time, more creating time, and the ability to produce even the most intricate designs in record time.
