Regular inspection and maintenance also prolongs the lifetime of your CNC Laser cutter as small issues (*that later become big problems*) are caught early. Our Machinery Service Engineers has started the [www.Machinery.Support VLOG](https://machinery.support/) to empower our clients to maintain their own devices. Two fairly common trouble areas in CNC laser Cutters are a) Water-flow sensors and b) Proximity sensors. See our VLOGs on these subjects below as an example: [https://youtu.be/14FGF_7JZ4A](https://youtu.be/14FGF_7JZ4A) ***VLOG:**Change Magnetic Proximity Sensor on CNC Laser Cutter for Motorised Table Auto-Focus Distance Check.
