- Welcome back to my workshop 😁
In todays video i walk you through a step by step installation of a genuine Sculpfun S9 @SCULPFUNReal Air assist kit.
Although this is specifically for the Sculpfun S9, the principles of how it works may be useful if you are installing an air assist kit to a different laser.
I hope you find this video of some use and i would highly recommend this kit if you want to get the most out of your laser.
I was not sponsored or paid by Sculpfun to make this video and the kit was purchased at my own cost.

I connected the power from the board air assist control position. Then use a solistat relay. can control the automatic turning on and off of the air from the lightburn program.
😃 Oh, thats a good idea. I didn't realise the air assist connector was enabled on the S9 board. I probably have a solid state relay somewhere. Sounds like a good project 😃. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
I've done the same and it's an awesome upgrade, now to get the thing to cut correctly 😅😂
Hey Frank,
Very good tutorial, Im a follower from a while ago and youve helped me through some sticky issues, keep it coming 🤘🏻
😁 Thanks Ian, thanks for the support, much appreceated 😁. Glad the videos are of some help. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
that is impressive young man
😁 Thanks Jim, And it works a treat. I am a lucky chap 🤣. Thanks for watching😁👍
Hi Frank, Done a good job there with the air assist nice and clean cut in to the ply, If you get the chance I would change the plug and the adaptor there is no fuse in them just put a 13 amp plug and it's only 16 watts use a 3 amp fuse. As always a great video , catch you soon Take care👍👍
😁 Thanks Shaun, Yep, great advice. Now i know its all working its one of the first things i intend to do. It would probably be fine but i don't think i would be comfortable leaving the adaptor fitted permanently. As a nice new 3 pin plug is needed 😁. Thanks for watching mate, catch up with you soon 😁👍
Your welcome .
Hey Frank, I hope you dont me reaching out to the Lasering guru lol, I've set up my skulpfun S9, followed every step from yourself ( Awesome ) however when I have done my design which is a key tag for my dad and started the cut and engrave on 3mm MDF it goes around the outline as if to cut it out, then it engraves beautifully.....but ! lol it hasn't actually cut it out, I've tried 100% 3000mms and 100% laser strength and 2500mm and also as 100% at 1000mm a minute......Heeeeeellllllllpppppp please.
😁 Hi Ian. Obviously I haven't seen your setup but to me it sounds like your going far too fast 🤔. Remembering that its only a 5.5W laser, so its not the most powerful laser in the world. Its easy to watch loads of videos on TH-cam where people are easily cutting through material with no problems. But you will find they have 10 or 20 or 40+W lasers with video that is at fast speed. Sounds like you need to slow down the laser (a lot), try not to always run the laser at 100% (it can shorten your laser life). And try to use multiple passes. And finally (but very important) make sure your lense is clean and is focused correctly. I hope that helps mate. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
Well that was easy. Does your software have a database merge option? It would be nice to do a template to cut what, 8 or 10 at a time, and then just keep putting in new sheets until all the names are all cut. You could be done in no time. Another video that has made the cut, and I thank you for it. 😁👍
😁 Thanks Chris, yep, thats the plan. now i know its all working and i have the optimum settings i can start batching them out 10 at a time. so far i have just been using some off cuts of ply. now its time for the big stuff🤣. Thanks for watching mate, hope your well😁👍
@@frankslittleworkshop You are always a step ahead my friend.
How much plywood mm? And what is speed with air?
@@aleksandrsrakovskis7612 😁Hi Aleks with 3.6mm ply it takes 2 passes at 90% at 300mm/min with air to make a nice clean cut 😁👍
Dear sir i try to used but laser power is low when cutting
how to adjust??
😁 Hi Tanawat. This is only a 5.5W laser. It is really only for engraving and not really for cutting. If you want to cut then I suggest getting a more powerful laser. To get the most power from it set the power to 100% in lightburn and the speed as low as you can. But make sure you are focused correctly or it will never work. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
What would you put for the cutting settings? I am having an issue with getting things to cut all the way through. I have done 600sp/85pwr. Any help is much appreciated
🤔 Hi Kasey. Thats a difficult question to answer as it all depends on which material you are cutting. The absolute best way to find which settings will work best is to use the "Material test tool" in lightburn. If you set that to line it will help you decide the best speed and power to use for the material you want to cut. Also it obviously depends on which laser you have. I assume you have the S9. So please remember as its only a 5W laser it has its limitations on the size of material it can cut. Ill find a good video that will hopefully help and post a link below. I hope that helps 😃. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
