Longer B1 and Longer Ray5 are laser engravers capable of engraving and cutting multiple types of materials. In particular, many users of Longer B1 and Ray5 prefer to carry out engraving and cutting using Lightburn, however others prefer to use LaserGRBL as it is free software. In particular, LaserGRBL is a software more optimized for laser engraving, with a good processing capacity of the images to be engraved, however, although with some limitations, it also allows you to convert image files into ".svg" vector files, so that you can make laser cuts starting from a graphic image.

After opening an image in LaserGRBL, proceed to set the engraving parameters in the window on the center of the screen.

 

In detail, change the Brightness and Contrast parameters, so that the image takes on a color tone tending to black.

 

After setting the engraving parameters, click with mouse on "Vectorize!", then eventually adjust Brightness and Contrast if necessary. Once done, click "Next".

 

In the screen that opens, define the cutting parameters, such as speed, power, and size. Once done, click "Create!". Remember that, depending on the speed and power set, an engraving or a cut will be made, always based on the same vector file.

 

At this point, the file will be ready to run. Save Gcode to export the working file to the microSD of Longer B1 and Ray5, then proceed to start working on Longer B1 and Ray5. Alternatively, you can connect Longer B1 and Ray5 via USB cable to LaserGRBL to do the job directly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


In this way, Longer Ray5 will cut or engrave the selected image, following the vectorial perimeter set above.

LONGER Test: Fan Cleaning for Longer Laser B1
LONGER Test: Fan Cleaning for Longer Laser B1

Longer Laser B1 20W & 30W & 40W has a laser module that can engrave and cut various types of materials. However, depending on the type of work being done, it is possible that a fair amount of smoke and wood dust will be produced, which will inevitably settle on the laser module's fan and suck into it. In fact, due to the high power of the laser beam, the laser module tends to heat up and for this reason it is necessary that there is a high-speed cooling fan; However, during its operation, the fan sucks in the surrounding air, and if the air is rich in smoke and dust produced during engraving, inevitably the fan and laser module will soon be filled with smoke and dust as well. When the laser module is saturated with dirt, cooling becomes ineffective, so it is necessary to proceed to clean the laser module.


To proceed with the cleaning of the laser module of the Longer B1 20W & 30W & 40W, it is first necessary to completely disassemble the laser module from the rest of the machine. Therefore, disconnect the power cable of the laser module, plus remove the connection with the air assist, and finally physically remove the laser module from the rest of the machine.

Once the laser module has been disconnected from the rest of the machine, using a compressor or a can of compressed air, it is necessary to gently blow air inside the laser module, from top to bottom through the fan opening, and from bottom to top. During the operation, it is necessary to hold the fan steady, using a small allen wrench, as the compressed air may cause the fan to spin empty, causing damage to the laser module. In addition, it is necessary to use a compressor or a can of low-pressure compressed air, as too high an air pressure could damage the components inside the laser module; Therefore, be very careful!


When all dirt has been removed from the laser module and the optimal condition has been visually restored, then you can finish cleaning and proceed with reassembly. Therefore, you can now install the laser module on the machine, then connect the power cable of the laser module, and also connect the air assist tube.

At this point, the cleaning operation has been completed, so you can proceed to make a test incision in order to verify that everything is working properly. Periodically clean the laser module to ensure optimal operation of the Longer B1, and remember to always use low-pressure compressed air during all cleaning operations.

LONGER Research: Exploring Laser B1 20W Laser Engraving for Smartphone Customization - LONGER
LONGER Research: Exploring Laser B1 20W Laser Engraving for Smartphone Customization

LONGER Research: Exploring Laser B1 20W Laser Engraving for Smartphone Customization

 

Laser engraving technology has revolutionized the customization of smartphone cases, offering unparalleled precision and personalization options that traditional methods cannot match. LONGER's Laser B1 20W diode laser technology exemplifies this advancement, boasting a powerful 20W optical output power and a versatile working area of 450x440mm (17.72x17.32 inches). With a laser wavelength of 450nm and a fixed focus of 50mm, it ensures fine detailing with a laser spot size of 0.08x0.15mm, making it ideal for intricate designs on various materials.

 

Using a laser engraver like the Laser B1 20W, individuals can achieve designs that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also durable and unique. Unlike traditional methods, laser engraving allows for the precise etching of personalized names, initials, inspirational quotes, and elaborate artwork directly onto smartphone cases. This capability transforms ordinary phone covers into personalized pieces of art, reflecting individual tastes and preferences.

 

The advantages of owning a laser engraving machine for such applications are significant. Firstly, the level of customization achievable with a Laser B1 20W surpasses that of manual methods, ensuring consistent quality and precision. Whether engraving intricate patterns, custom portraits, or abstract designs, the laser's high-speed capability of up to 36000mm/min ensures efficient production without compromising on detail.

 

Moreover, the durability of laser-engraved designs is notable. The engraved marks on smartphone cases resist fading and wear over time, maintaining their clarity and aesthetic appeal longer than traditional surface applications. This durability is enhanced by the machine's robust construction and long laser head life of over 10000 hours, ensuring reliability and minimal maintenance.

 

In contrast, traditional methods such as manual painting or printing lack the permanence and precision offered by laser engraving. Hand-painted designs may fade or chip, while printed graphics can peel off with use. Laser engraving, however, embeds designs into the material itself, ensuring longevity and resistance to external elements.

 

Furthermore, the flexibility of the Laser B1 20W extends to its compatibility with various image formats (JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF, SVG, AI, etc.) and operating systems (LaserGRBL for Windows, LightBurn for Windows, macOS, Linux, and LaserBurn APP for Android, iOS). This compatibility allows users to seamlessly integrate their design workflow from image creation to engraving, enhancing convenience and productivity.

 

In conclusion, the integration of laser engraving technology into smartphone customization represents a paradigm shift in personalization and craftsmanship. The capabilities of machines like LONGER's Laser B1 20W empower users to transform everyday objects into personalized artifacts, blending technology with individual expression in unprecedented ways. As this technology continues to evolve, its potential applications in personalization and manufacturing are poised to expand, offering endless possibilities for creativity and innovation.

 

Popular Phone Case Design Ideas:

 

  1. Personalized Names, Initials, Inspirational Quotes or Messages: Engrave your name or initials on the smartphone case for easy identification and a personal touch. Laser-engrave motivational quotes or messages that inspire, adding a meaningful touch to your everyday device.

 

  1. Artwork or Illustrations: Incorporate artistic designs or upload custom artwork to create a unique aesthetic on your smartphone case. Engrave natural motifs like flowers, leaves, or animals to bring a touch of the outdoors to your smartphone.

 

  1. Custom Portraits: Create personalized silhouettes of loved ones, pets, or celebrities to make your smartphone case truly one-of-a-kind. Showcase your fandom with logos, quotes, or symbols from your favorite TV shows, movies, or bands.

 

These Laser B1 20W design options cater to a wide range of preferences and styles, offering flexibility for creating a case that reflects individual tastes. As laser engraving technology continues to evolve, users are encouraged to explore combinations of these ideas or develop their own unique designs to personalize their smartphone cases effectively.

Lightburn WiFi Bridge - Longer B1 - LONGER
Lightburn WiFi Bridge - Longer B1

Longer B1 adopts an MKS mainboard, characterized by USB connectivity, wireless technology, microSD card reading, touchscreen display with graphic interface (optional) and total interaction with your smartphone through the MKSLaser application or Longer LaserBurn.

The most common method of using Longer B1 is to connect the machine to your Laptop via a USB connection, or by exporting a gcode file to be run via the Longer B1 microSD. However, there is also an intermediate mode of operation, based on WiFi connectivity, which allows you to use Lightburn and Longer B1 without a USB cable.

Connecting the Laptop and Longer B1 with a USB cable requires them to be within a short distance of each other, as the maximum extension of a USB cable is about 3 - 5 meters. On the other hand, connecting the Laptop with Lightburn and Longer B1 wirelessly allows you to position yourself at a greater distance, so as to obtain good greater security during the engraving process. For this reason, using Lightburn in WiFi mode offers numerous advantages in terms of security and efficiency, thus expanding the user's comfort and versatility of Longer B1.

NOTE: This procedure works only with Longer B1 (without TouchScreen), if you installed TouchScreen and its specific firmware this procedure cannot work.

In order to connect Longer B1 and Lightburn wirelessly, you first need to complete the WiFi setup process on your Longer B1. To do this, proceed as follows.

  1. Download MKS Laser Tool V2.1.5: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15t05puA5VXCj0hvaRHeWL084MVnL0SO_/view?usp=sharing
  2. Once installed successfully, run the software as administrator. Then, choose “WiFi Configuration Tool”
  3. In the next window, select the right COM port, add the name & password for own router and wait for the connection success. Once it’s done, Get IP and note it for future usage

    Note: The IP address of Longer B1 may change frequently, so it is recommended that you set an IP RESERVATION for the Mac-Address of B1 within the DHCP parameters of your Router/AccessPoint, so that you always get the same IP address at each subsequent connection. Otherwise, it could be necessary to repeat the procedure above each time to get always the new casual IP address.

 

 

Once the Longer B1 has been successfully connected to the WiFi Router/AccessPoint and the IP address has been successfully provided and noted, proceed to open Lightburn on your Laptop. At this point, proceed as follows.

  1. Connect your Laptop to the same WiFi Router/AccessPoint to which you have connected Longer B1
  2. Click on "Devices", then click on "Create Manually" to add a new device
  3. Select GRBL form the list, then click "Next" button
  4. Select Ethernet/TCP and press "Next" button
  5. Enter the IP address you obtained earlier on the Longer B1 touchscreen (for example, 192.168.1.161)
  6. Enter the following data - Name: B1 WiFi / X = 450 / Y = 440
  7. Select "Front Left" as your Origin and activate "Auto Home", then click "Next" button
  8. In the next window, press "Finish" to complete the setup, then select "B1 WiFi" and press "Make Default". Confirm with “OK”
  9. After successfully creating "B1 WiFi" you need to set up the correct Network Port. On the main screen, press "Edit" and then "Device Settings", then set "Network Port 23" and confirm with "OK"
  10. At this point, your B1 is ready to be used in LightBurn software in WiFi mode. Close Lightburn and restart it, and if everything has been done correctly, the connection status will change from "Disconnected" to "Ready", and it will be possible to move the laser module through the appropriate menu and start a laser engraving using the "Start" button, all without having to use any USB cable, but simply using the WiFi connection of your Router/AccessPoint

 

Please note that in order for the WiFi Bridge to work properly, both the Laptop and the Longer B1 must be connected to the same WiFi Router/AccessPoint.
