LS3020 bed height

[Kris]

Hello,

Does anyone have a photo showing how to set the bed height on the LS3020?

I can't find any record of how I've been doing it - I think the key phrase was from the top of the cutting material to the "top of the laser housing" - but there's 2 pieces of metal on the focusing lens mount that this could refer to, that the HPC Laser branded piece of 62mm acrylic can slide underneath, or be in line with the top of.

I also have problems getting the honeycomb bed level sometimes, so I'm worried my entire set up could be a few mm out in each corner.

It should be the top side of the plate the mirror nozzle is attached to. I can't show a picture as I don't have a 3020 anymore but someone else may be able to help.

Best

Just remembered I posted this in the quick ref section


it is the top side of the plate the cable tie is holding the air assist tube to

Thanks Dave, I did a quick search on the topic, but should have checked the reference section too, sorry. Also found the tip about putting rubber feet on the honeycomb bed to avoid scraping, that'll help with levelling too I'd imagine.

I might cut a new reference square with a tiny notch in one corner to help with alignment.

Thanks again.
