K40 customized frontpanel

thingiverse

Here is a customized front panel designed specifically for the Chinese K40 laser. I've added several switches to control key functions, including air assist, fan, water pump, and light, as well as an emergency stop feature and water temperature monitoring. The only components retained from the original setup are the potentiometer, main power switch, and amperemeter. This custom front panel is crafted from 4mm acrylic glass. The blue vector line was simply for measurement purposes and has not been cut into the material. Cutting and engraving data: Engraving: 5mA at a speed of 150mm/s Cutting: 12mA at a rate of 5mm/s
