I’m using a Razor 3 130Watt C02 Laser and I am having trouble with cuts. I am having to use multiple passes to cut through this 3mm particle board, but somehow our 50watt Epilog still is getting cleaner cuts with one pass. I’ve tried running 130Watt at 60/55% power at 35mm/s. To actually cut with the 130Watt laser I’m having to run 3 passes 70/65% power at 25mm/s. Any ideas as to why I’m having trouble cutting with the stronger laser.

"why I’m having trouble cutting with the stronger laser"

The usual problems, roughly in order of frequency:

Dirty mirrors / focus lens
Misaligned beam
Dead tube (check spot at Mirror 1)
There are other problems, but checking those will probably identify the culprit.
