Odin Lens Selection

Preface: This article covers the difference between the Four Lens options for the Odin series machines. The same principles apply to the Bolt as well.


Intro Video:







The  Four Lens Options Side by Side:





Engraving Test:

The same picture was engraved with all four lens with the same power speed with the picture parameters set as shown:

Speed: 1500mm/s
Power: 30%
Picture mode: Halftone
Cells per inch: 90



Comparisons:

1.5 inch lens:


The 1.5″ lens has the smallest burn dot to provide the most detailed engraving effect. But at the same time it has the shortest cutting thickness


2.0 inch lens:


The thickness of the 2.0″ lens cuts and the engraving effect are well balanced for most cases
laser cutter wood


2.5 inch lens:


The 2.5″ lens is ideal for thicker materials that require engraving and cutting



4.0 inch lens:


4.0″ lens engraving fidelity is not as good as other lenses but it is meant for cutting thicker materials



Dot Spacing Comparison:

When we have finished engraving all the images, we can then use a magnifying glass to compare the size of the burn dots engraved by each lens




Lens Selection based on Engraving and Cutting needs:


Fineness of engraving:
1.5″ better than 2.0″ better than 2.5″ better than 4. 0″

Depth of cut:
4.0″ better than 2.5″ better than 2.0″ better than 1.5″
