We have received our rough report from the testing facility and our main product design has successfully passed as a laser component. In order to qualify as a laser component, we had to remove continuous maximum power mode, which makes the LaserBeam reliant on the PWM signal that comes from the Longmill controller. Thus the driver design is officially completed!
The specific milestones below have been completed:
Pass IEC 60825-1 tests
Receive testing report
Next Tasks
Supply Chain and Regulations
Place an order with a local PCB manufacturer to make and assemble board components with short lead time
File all reports with the FDA (we do not need to wait for report review before shipping out lasers)
Design
Finalize the design for the driver case and air assist
To increase user safety, we plan to design a simple laser shield that can help avoid laser radiation from interacting with the user
Assembly
Currently assembling our laser diode, heat sinks and cooling fan
Then will finish adding connectors to the driver fan, laser assembly and laser diode extension cable

On November 2nd we sent off our 7W LaserBeam product for independent testing. With the help of the test project coordinator, we will ensure that our product meets all Class 4 laser product requirements. That could mean making changes to the driver design and/or improving our safety/user manual.
Next Tasks
Safety and User Manual
While we wait to hear back from the test project coordinator we will continue to have our packers assemble parts that we are confident in, and would not be affected by the results of the testing.
Parts to assemble:
Laser diode extension cord
PWM signal cord
Laser diode heat sink assembly
Laser cooling fan
As we wait for updates from the independent testing facility, we will continue to plan ahead for Batch 2, to avoid future delays in shipping. Batch 1 includes the first 300 pre-orders, scheduled to deliver by end of the year.
Supply chain tasks:
We will be upgrading our acrylic router mount to zinc plated 10GA sheet metal
This will further reduce any vibrations that come from the laser cooling fan or LongMill movement
We will begin ordering more parts for Batch 2 of the LaserBeam production, which should take 1-2 weeks
Copper heat sinks
Safety glasses
A/C power cables
Laser diodes
Once the Laserbeam passes testing, we can order the driver PCBs

I would like to share with the LaserBeam community that v6 of our driver design was our first operating Laser Driver. There’s good and there’s bad but this is a huge milestone, giving us a lot of confidence in continuing to improve and get the design where it needs to be.
Positive Driver News
We currently have a working 3A Laser driver that can operate with the Longmill controller & gSender to produce high quality engraving and cutting results
All safety features operate as intended (Key switch, interlock, power failure reset button, led status)
Control max current output with dip switches (up to 3A reliably right now)
Switch between full power continuous mode and PWM input mode working
Power your Laser cooling fan, driver cooling fan and air assist fan working
Negative Driver News
We currently are not able to provide a stable 5A current to the diode (3A is the max right now)
Holding down the reset button turns the driver on (small error)
There is a small amount of power leakage; when in continuous or pwm mode there is a small amount of current running into the laser diode. This is an issue because unless a current is selected in continuous or a pwm signal is being sent to the driver there should be no amount of current available
v7 Driver Improvements
Upgrade passive components and double copper layer amount in order to achieve a stable 5A
Power and function switch changed to panel mount for more flexibility for driver design
Get rid of signal inversion mode and potentiometer in order to solve low power leakage and simplify design
v6 Driver Results
Next Steps
Test v7 Laser Driver
Working on Laser Resources
We are currently finalizing our air assist design and I’m very happy with the results

Check out our LaserBeam FAQ video, I take all your unanswered questions from the LaserBeam livestream and try to give you guys more clarity on the LaserBeam add on.
During my time at Sienci Labs, I have learned a lot about rapid prototyping, quality control, and listening and working with our amazing community. Andy & Chris our Founders have always advised me to always give myself more time than needed. It’s a lesson I have not fully taken in until now, I feel like I have learned to set more realistic expectations on the timelines it takes to develop a new product. I do believe for the price, we are developing the best laser diode attachment on the market. The last piece of the puzzle is a 5A laser driver that meets the standards of the company and my own. I have no doubt that we will get there but we need time. The driver needs to work well, be tested independently and then ordered in bulk. That’s all that is left with development. We are currently at version 5 of the driver prototyping, we may need 1-2 more before I am confident enough to send off for independent lab testing and bulk ordering. The original ship date I picked was the first week of July, then first week of August then end of August. Instead of telling you we can ship early October. I need to take Andy & Chris’ advice and give myself and those I’m working with enough time to do this right and to not continuously push the date by small increments. Your support on this new product and journey to developing it really does mean the world to me. Thank you Sienci Labs community! We do hope to ship earlier than the new listed date but I think it’s best to allow more time than I believe we need.
*Final shipping update is December 2021 (absolute latest)*
What caused this delay?
I hired 2 international electronics designers, I misjudged their experience with laser diodes and constant current drivers.
Neither designer was able to develop something that could perform the tasks we needed v1-v4.
The best design we received was v4, it had working safety features and delivered current to the diode, only issue was that is was not constant current and was not a high quality design
Slow design work pace: I hired these designers in April 2021 and only had received designs that could be tested in July. This is the root cause of our 3-4 month delay
I am now disputing the payments we made to them and working with a new local designer full time and he is working night and day prototyping the new laser driver design.
I am working between the Sienci office and our new designers office in order to keep the project moving forward and continuously test and debug designs at a much faster pace
This ultimately stems from my own inexperience hiring electronics engineers and designers. This did teach me a lot
5A Laser Driver Update
With all that said, version 5 of the driver was tested last night and had some issues
To much inductance/resistance in the traces leading to the voltage regulator
Reverse polarity protection was not included
The way feedback was provided to the mosfet was causing issues with the constant current
Version 6 is being worked on as we speak and we’ll be placing a new PCB order tomorrow to fix all the issues listed above.
Production News
We have finalized the LaserBeam Logo
Both aluminum & copper heatsinks have been tested with great results
Focus ring & springs have been tested and packaged with great results
We have a stock of 200 7w Diodes
Fans have arrived and will be tested next week
New batch of power supplies have arrived and will be tested next week
Extension cables are being prepped for packaging
Timeline (8-16 weeks): What needs to be done?
Driver Development: currently working on v6 of the prototype (1-2 Weeks)
Testing: send a driver off for testing (1-2 Weeks)
FDA Compliance: file our test reports with the FDA (1-2 Weeks)
Order Drivers: order the drivers in bulk (4-8 Weeks)
Ship: Package and ship LaserBeam Pre-orders (1-2 Weeks)
What If I can’t wait that long?
Please send us an email or give us a call and we will process your refund. I never want to disappoint community members and customers but at Sienci Labs we value transparency over everything. Some of you run your businesses with the Longmill and you anticipated having a Laser for certain projects/jobs, we understand if you need to make different plans and explore other options.
For those of you who still want to wait, first of all thank you. It’s because you guys have supported this project from day one that I get to develop a product that the community will use and hopefully enjoy in the very near future.

Hey everyone, Ikenna here with another LaserBeam update. I’m excited to see parts continue to arrive, with little to no QA issues. At this moment the majority of my time is focused on the 5A Driver development, our first prototype did not work as intended. Fortunately we have 2 separate designs and will be testing the second design late next week when the PCB arrives. At the same time we are reworking the schematic for the first design so we have more options and will give us the best opportunity to provide the best driver for the 7W LaserBeam.
We expect to begin shipping Monday August 30th at a pace of about 25-50/week. We should be able to clear the order queue within 4-6 weeks from when we begin shipping. The challenges are completing a working driver, receiving acknowledgement from the FDA of test report submission, and receiving a large order of driver pcbs from our overseas supplier.
Driver Development:
Driver A-v1.1:
Unfortunately this design was not able to interpret the 5V PWM signal that comes from the Longboard
Mandatory Safety features did not work as designed; Key switch, interlock and power off reset
Driver A-v1.2:
We broke down each function that wasn’t working with Driver A-v1.0 and I’m more confident that this new design fix the initial issues we saw
DriverA- v1.2 Is being troubleshooted, then pre-tested before a new PCB prototype is made, assembled and tested against all functions that we need for the ideal driver
Driver B-v1.1:
Assembly has been completed and shipped
We had the manufacturer send the PCB early because we can finish soldering components very quick and that should save us a day or two
Will arrive July 29th 2021 and the goal is to be fully tested by July 31st
If we find any functionality issues during testing we will begin to troubleshoot and rework this design
Local Designer:
To help speed up the prototyping process, we have begun working with a local electronics designer that already has experience working with Sienci Labs
His main objective will be to work with our current designers and help change designs at a quicker pace
He will also be able to populate and solder components onto new PCBs for prototyping faster than our overseas manufacturer can. Allowing us to test new designs within 7 days
Driver Design Compliance:
We are working with TÜV SÜD in order to independently test our LaserBeam to make sure we are in compliance with Health Canada, FDA and International Laser Standards. Testing can only begin once a 5A Driver design passes our tests so it acts as our bottleneck. TÜV SÜD testing procedure will ensure all safety functions work correctly, and our user/safety manual has all the information needed for safe operation. Until then we will continue working on our user/safety manual so it is as detailed as possible. We have also been completing the necessary FDA registrations so we can submit our reports in a timely fashion.
Production Heatsinks and Lens Focus Ring:
The manufacturing of the aluminum heatsink, copper heatsink and lens focus ring has been completed. The aluminum heatsink and lens focus ring has been anodized (black) and is being shipped now. This updated design should allow the G2 lens to be easily focused and solve the issue we had with the prototype heatsinks. As soon as they arrive we will begin quality assurance then assembly of the 7w diode, heatsinks and exhaust fan. The diode/heatsink/fan assembly is 50% of the 7W LaserBeam and the 5A driver, enclosure and air assist is the other 50%.
Power Supplies:
Power Supplies have arrived and passed QA tests, connectors have been attached. We will have to repackage them with the AC cables as the box they came in does not fit both the power supply and the AC cable.
Safety Glasses:
Safety Glasses have arrived and look great with the Sienci Labs branding.
Designs:
Laser Driver Enclosure: We have a rough design set, small changes once the driver is completed to accommodate all connectors, switches etc.
Air Assist: We have improved the design with a sliding pressure fit and an articulating nozzle instead of a funnel design. But we are reworking new designs until we are satisfied
Packaging: I will start playing with packaging ideas, nothing concrete until more production parts begin to arrive.
Testing:
PCB Design A: 5A Driver A-v1.1 failed testing, currently working on 5A Driver A-v1.2 (schematics look promising)
PCB Design B: 5A Driver B-v1.1 will arrive Thursday for testing. I had the manufacturer ship with a few parts unsoldered in order to save a few days and test earlier. We are comfortable soldering the remaining parts inhouse
Laser Diodes: Testing a new 7w diode supplier this week
Supply Chain:
Thermal Paste: Samples will be ordered Monday
Extension Cables: Connectors have been ordered, we ordered a small batch of wire to test
Lens Focus Rings: Completed and are being shipped
Aluminum Heatsinks: Completed and are being shipped
Copper Heatsinks: Completed and are shipped
Laser Diodes: Currently have 150pcs 7w Diodes in stock another 50pcs were shipped last week

Hey everyone, Ikenna here with another LaserBeam update. We have made a lot of good progress since the last update. Most significantly we’ve tested our sample production heatsinks with great results, and our prototype LaserBeam drivers will be arriving from the manufacturer in the next week or two.
5W Generic Banggood Laser Power Test:
When testing the 5W Generic Banggood laser we were able to confirm that the real continuous optical power of 1.9W-2.2W which is far below the promised 5W continuous power rating. These lasers have their place in the market but if you are looking for high quality at a reasonable price I believe the Sienci LaserBeam is the best offering on the market. In the pictures below the top mW reading is the true optical power reading for this specific laser system. (1.95W, 2.13W)
7W LaserBeam Laser Power Test:
When testing our 7W laser diode we were able to confirm real continuous optical power of between 7.1W-7.2W @ 4.5A (recommended current limit for longevity) which will keep both the diode and driver running for a long time as well as producing the exact power we are promising you, which cannot be said about lower quality laser systems like the one in the previous section. In the picture below the top mW reading is the true optical power reading for this specific laser system. (7.17W, 7.18W)
Sample Production Heatsinks and Lens Focus Ring:
Last week we received some sample production heatsinks and lens focus rings. Good news, the heat dissipation is great and was able to keep the laser system 6 degrees celsius cooler than the generic heatsink when running our max power test file. Everything fits well and was assembled with relative ease. The bad news is that the top of the copper heatsink was just 2.5mm too long for the G2 lens to properly focus, using a very thin 3d printed lens focus ring I was able to get the G2 lens in focus. This confirmed that I needed to reduce the size of the top copper heatsink by 3mm to make everything work, as well as sliding the set screw location down 3mm on the Aluminum heatsink. These changes have been sent to our manufacturer and they have begun production again.
5A Driver Prototype:
I have been working very hard with our PCB designers and our PCB manufacturer to find any potential issues and solve them before we receive the prototypes and begin testing and designing our enclosure. Over the next 2 weeks we will be working with experienced testing labs to produce a comprehensive testing procedure for all LaserBeam 5A drivers. We will also use the prototypes to start creating our safety and assembly manuals.
Safety Glasses:
Our safety glasses are ready and being shipped now. I have been using a these exact glasses to run all our LaserBeam testing and can confirm with my own experience as well as laser power testing that these are great safety glasses and your eyes will be well protected.
Designs:
Laser Driver Enclosure: I am waiting to receive and test our prototype LaserBeam Driver, I will continue to iterate designs until I can test them with the physical driver boards.
Magnetic T-mount: The standard T-mount design is finished so I will begin looking into designing a magnetic mount.
Magnetic Air Assist: The main design is complete, I am now sourcing neodymium magnets to test
Packaging: I will start playing with packaging ideas, nothing concrete until more production parts begin to arrive.
Testing:
Power Supply: 12V 7A power supply has been tested successfully, I will continue to test 12V 7A to make sure we get the right power supply for the 5A driver and all the fans.
PCB Design: Waiting to receive the driver prototypes, in the meantime devising a comprehensive testing procedure.
Laser Diodes: I am currently testing a secondary supplier for the 7W Laser diodes to ensure that we have a backup if our initial supplier has a shortage.
Supply Chain:
Lenses: Tested production order successfully, in stock.
Lens Focus Rings: Tested product samples successfully, currently being manufactured.
Aluminum Heatsinks: Made one last small change to the copper heatsink set screw location, currently being manufactured.
Copper Heatsinks: Made one last small change to the top copper heatsink size to make it easier to focus the G2 Lens, currently being manufactured
Safety Glasses: Production is complete, and has shipped.
Laser Diodes: Currently have 100pcs 7w Diodes in stock, currently testing a 6W diode to offer a secondary power option.

Lens Descriptions
Lens Type
Description
G2 Lens
has the best efficiency (most power) and shortest focal length so it’s great for cutting and good for engraving
3 Element Lens
3 Element has the cleanest beam profile (super detailed text, lines and image engraving)
G7 Lens
has a good balance between the power of the G2 and the clean beam profile of the 3 Element.
G8 Lens
is very similar to the G7 but it has a smaller focus length so you can engrave thicker material than the G8 because you would have more available Z axis travel. I will make a dedicated video for lenses but hopefully that gives you a bit of clarity until then.

Hey everyone, Ikenna here again for another laser update. Since my last update I have been testing supplier parts, finalizing our first PCB designs, testing suppliers and ordering parts for production.
Designs:
Copper Heatsink: Design is finalized and sent to the manufacturer
Aluminum Heatsink: Design is finalized and sent to the manufacturer
Lens Focus Ring: Design is finalized and sent to the manufacturer
Air Assist: I have updated the design but more fit testing is needed
T-mount: Design is completed, if there is time I will redesign a magnetic mount
Laser Driver: I have our first 2 pcb driver designs. Will be ordering assembled prototypes this week
Laser Driver Enclosure: Now that I have a few pcb designs, I will begin designing an enclosure
Supplier Testing:
Safety Goggles:Testing safety goggles is complete and I will be looking to place an order in the next week.
To summarize the testing procedure: I used a laser power meter to measure optical power and then ran the same test with the safety goggle lens between the laser power meter and the laser. This effectively tested how much optical power made it through each lens of the safety goggle. Although most suppliers kept it under the FDA recommended limit of 5mw, there was one supplier that stood out.
Lenses: I have narrowed it down to 2 suppliers, will have a supplier selected by the end of this week
Fans: I have tested our fan supplier and am happy with the results. Our main fan selection needs more testing to find the perfect noise output to heat exhausting balance. Trying to make sure the main fan we select isn’t noisier than it has to be.
Power supply: I am finalizing the connector type that is needed for the power supply. Will have samples ordered and tested next.
Supply Chain:
Laser Diodes: We placed our first order of diodes this week. I will continue to look for backup suppliers so that we can keep up with any future demand if needed.
Aluminum Heatsink: Order has been placed for our very own aluminum heatsink design
Copper Heatsink: Order has been placed for our very own copper heatsink design
Lens Focus Ring: Order has been placed for our very own lens focus ring design
Pre Order Launch:
Our Pre order page will launch May 14th, price is set to $400CAD for the module + $60CAD for the safety goggles. Each laser will include 1 lens with the option to purchase more. Here are some of the things we still have to finalize:
Photorealistic product renders
Finalizing a product name
Introductory resources so you may begin preparing to operate your laser module.
Just like this update, all future laser updates will be sent out directly to the mailing list as well as posted publicly to the Sienci blog & Facebook group
