A fiber laser can carve super intricate designs into any metal in just 10 seconds. The laser is getting so hot the metal is vaporizing away, yet it does nothing to our skin. As we play the video back and watch these lasers in slow motion, Alexander Sellite of "Laser Everything" breaks down everything we need to know about fiber lasers and how they function.

Thank you guys so much for coming by the studio. It was an honor to be able to work with you and show off this amazing technology!

@sweebos Год назад

Thanks for sharing! ✌️

@LaserEverything Год назад

@@sweebos We had a lot of fun just glad I got the opportunity!

Awesome! Congrats

Dude! So excited that they invited you on for this episode! Great job presenting.

@@markbreidenbaugh6033 I did my best lol

@shize9ine Год назад

If 180fps ‘slow motion’ is the best your hardware can do, why not rent a phantom? 1:42 - B roll plasma cutter, not laser.

@3k2p6 Год назад

How can you call 180fps slow motions... Oh my god, bring the slow mo guys to film this.

@Pood369 Год назад

I was thinking the same thing!

@DrorF Год назад

At least they didn't do the dramatic 'slowing down effect' 😁

@Ripen3 Год назад

Lol exactly, i came for the slowmo😒

@7H07sAndH03s 3 месяца назад

It wouldn’t be much different except the surface getting engraved a little slowly. It would look cool but then thats it. The light is very fast and you wont see it.

@AmasikoCustomDesigns Год назад

I’m a member of the Laser Everything community and you won’t find a better place to learn and share your knowledge with other laser businesses owners. Great RU-vid channel and social media accounts.

Yeah he's so good with the information, people unsatisfying by free content, ask for more. Idk this society so bad.

@khalilahd. Год назад

This is actually incredible. Crazy what technology can do these days 😅

@practicallyprinz Год назад

You'll be amazed to hear there are 3d applications, Cutters, glass engravers, plastic etc

@justayoutuber1906 Год назад

It is called a fiber laser because the laser light is both generated and delivered by a fiber optic cable.

@sweebos Год назад

This was amazing to see! I knew a tiny bit about this process, but this was informative and incredibly entertaining.

@willhouse Год назад

That color engraving is *bonkers*

@jimvanderlinde Год назад

Laser everything is the best place to learn about this kinda laser

@FarceeTheFire Год назад

There's actually *many* aluminum alloys, aluminum may be an element, but you'd be incredibly hard pressed to find yourself using raw aluminum.

@masterix4021 Год назад

Can't you also color titanium with the same techinque as steel? Has far as I have seen, the titanium oxide layer changes color depending on heat as well.

@LaserEverything Год назад

Yes that's true, we haven't experimented with it too much so I figured I'd keep it simple here as it acts more as an intro to lasers but you're absolutely right.

@krish6099 Год назад

@0:31 so with 60W power 1070nm wavelength doesnt interact with organic material? i have heard bad stories in laser safety classes, could you please explain a bit more? Thanks.

@LaserEverything Год назад

There are obviously tons of exceptions like color, density, temperature, but in general - organic materials have a very poor absorption rate at this wavelength. That said this short IR is very dangerous to your eyesight so you should always wear safety glasses when working around these machines. Especially non-enclosed class 4 lasers. We get into it more on the channel but the long and short of it is it isn't going to burn the crap out of you like a UV or CO2 laser would if you catch your hand between the beam and the object.

@SinkLikeStone Год назад

I would love to hear more about how iron can turn blueish or red/brown/blackish depends on the oxygen level react to the laser. ;)

@LanceLarsen Год назад

What brand of laser was that? Can it cut metal as well as engrave it? Love the video - super well done!

@LaserEverything Год назад

This was the 60w M7 by SFX, amazing machine, just wrapped the review of it on our channel :)

@AfrozAlam-gd1vp Год назад

3:13 is the metal moving because of laser hitting or because lase is making the metal hot?

@LaserEverything Год назад

The metal is getting hot and warping! :P

I'll say it. The yellow sparks are cool looking!🙌

@justayoutuber1906 Год назад

@SwissTanuki Год назад

So Mr. Bond wasn't going to die and Goldfinger just made that up? So evil...

@LaserEverything Год назад

I think Goldfinger was using a visible light laser in the megawatt range so Bond was definitely in quite a bit of trouble. All comes down to wavelength and wattage!

@thoobonator Год назад

Good informative video. It would have been nice with an explanation to why the colour actually appears. I assume it is because steel has a colour change pattern that it will go through when it reaches different temperatures.

@zaprodk Год назад

Exactly!

@temmerson Год назад

The mirrors move as fast as 10,000 milli meters per second! No wait, the mirrors move as fast as 10,000,000,000 nano meters per second! (Also known as 10m per second, but doesn’t sound as good)

@elysiaxox Год назад

@Amonimus Год назад

Still, why doesn't it hurt organic material and why iron gives variying color?

@OfficialSamuelC Год назад

Always weird seeing the word ablation, as someone with cardiac issues whos has cardiac ablation, meaning I had a procedure where went through my femoral artery in my leg (inside the artery) all the way up to the inside of my heart chambers and ablated lots of parts of my heart (burning/scarring parts of my heart muscle to try alter or permanent damage certain electrical pathways across the heart). My cardiac problem means my resting heart rate 24/7 is tachycardic. Averaging 150bpm up to 250bpm. Day and night, awake or asleep. Nothing works to slow it, no medication, no Adenosine. Not even shocking my heart over and over fixes it (and this hurts, they do it whilst you’re awake with a little bit of sedation!).

@LaserEverything Год назад

Wish you well friend, sorry to hear your story - please take care.

@drewlop Год назад

This is cool but I'm disappointed they didn't explain how the color is created. "Steel is ferrous," but iron is not an inherently colorful material. I'm sure it's some kind of thin film interference effect, but the fact that they didn't mention that and just said "it's ferrous!" as if that would be enlightening is kinda lame. Better to just be like "how the color works is out of scope for this video."

@rayrous8229 Год назад

Way cool! Can you do one on extreme ultraviolet lasers?

@@henrychan720 yeah that's not usable as the energy level on those is very low and won't ablate or really heat anything.

You can buy low power ones that run on 3d printers. They are rather dangerous as they can blind you without proper eye protection. The smoke is aweful.

I think you need to figure out all those terminology like fiber-laser, galvo, etc... before making such a type of video, so that it won't be full of misconception in your video.
