Dear all,

Anyone out there with fv1000 spares? I am looking for a laser safety shutter F10-SHAUIX and the motorised filter turret which have both failed on one of our systems this week.

any suggestions are welcome.

all the best

Peter

I do not have a spare but if the shutter is just slipping, I have in the past just disassembled the thing and cleaned. The shutter relies on a rubber wheel to move a plate in and out of the path. The reassembly is a bit finicky,  to tighten the screws just enough for it to work but not too much to have too much friction.
