I tried to run my laser faster and found at 500mm/s the job ran slower than running it at 250mm/s.

How can I get my laser to run faster? There's a common misconception that increasing your laser speed will decrease job run time and give faster engraving times, but that's not entirely true.

In this video I will cover some tests to get your laser engraver more accurate for faster engraving,
1. Run an interval test
2. Check scanning offsets
3. Run timed tests for various jobs using Lightburn software.

My setup:
OMTech 130w AF3555 laser
OMTech water chiller
Lightburn software
