First of all, please check the installation tutorials to start using your conveyor.
How to install the conveyor:
How to create a project with a conveyor:
Here are some tips which will help you use the conveyor more smoothly. Before using, please make sure you have
Software Version: 2.0.3or newer
Firmware Version: 2.0.24 or newer
1. Please ensure that the lengths of the extension rods on both sides(inlet and outlet) of the conveyor match the dimensions of the material you need to engrave. As otherwise, material may drop during processing.
2. Please place the conveyor on a very flat tabletop and ensure that the front panel of the machine is parallel to the conveyor. Otherwise, material skewing may occur during processing.
3. Instructions on the supported material thickness of the conveyor:
- The conveyor's inherent structure allows for the passage of materials with a maximum thickness of 14mm.
- When used together with Vision, it can support materials with a maximum thickness of 8mm.
- Given that some materials may have uneven surfaces or warped corners, we recommend elevating the machine whenever the material exceeds 5mm in thickness.
- Avoid using excessively thick wooden blocks to elevate the machine, as this may cause the laser head to be too far from the material surface, failing to focus and engrave. Generally, we recommend using wooden boards with a thickness of 3mm. For guidance, refer to the following video tutorial.
4. Before starting a task, click the Framing button in the preview window to observe the laser head's movement path and confirm that the material's length and flatness are appropriate.
This helps prevent issues such as material jams or insufficient material length. Normally we suggest the materials should be 50cm longer than your design.
5. After the framing is completed, the material board will stay at the starting point of processing. The red light point of the laser head will move to the upper left corner of the pattern to be processed.
If you notice any deviation between the red light point and the actual starting position needed for processing, please adjust the material and the red light spot until they align. This ensures that the starting point for material processing coincides with the red light point, allowing for more precise positioning.
6. In cutting mode, it is advisable to enable the add Perforated Line (Breakpoint for older version)feature to prevent small cut pieces from dropping and potentially causing material jams. The larger the cutting area is, the more breakpoints you need to add. Explanation of Breakpoint
7. If you raise the machine, it will be in a semi-enclosed state during cutting, and smoke may possibly overflow. Consider purchasing a high-power inline fan or purifier to effectively remove smoke.
8. For different materials, please refer to the manual to adjust the pressure knob for varying pressures. This will prevent material slippage or excessive pressure.
9. Please place your design and the material correctly to ensure that when doing autofocus, the laser's red light dot falls onto the material surface, but not a blank space on the laser bed, otherwise an autofocus failure may occur.
