How many times have you had your machine "tuned"? Are you about to do so?
I usually run about 145mw. When I get down around 100mw, things are slow.

Rob,

I have about 12000 hours on our SLA5000 laser and is currently at 106mw. We
are looking into other alternatives to retube the laser.

To: RP List,
        Could any of you share with me the life spans you have gotten from
your SLA
5000 lasers.
 I am reviewing the 3-D maintainence plans and trying to evaluate the most
effective plan based on laser life as well as all
other factors. Your input would be greatly appreciated.
                                                Thank You for your input,
