3-Jaw Chuck Diameter Capacities
The 3-Jaw Chuck allows four different ways to hold your object based on cylinder diameter and whether you are holding
it from the inside or outside diameter.

Vector Speed Limitations based on Cylinder Diameter
Important! There are speed limitations in Vector mode based on cylinder diameter. The driver will display the maximum
speed setting that can be used for a given diameter. Your power setting will need to be adjusted according to the speed.
The 3-Jaw Chuck Rotary was designed to rotate cylinders that range in size from 0.040" (12.7 mm) to approximately 3"
(76.2 mm) in diameter. However, from a practical point-of-view, it is difficult to produce a legible mark on cylinders that
are smaller than .080" (2 mm).
Set the Cylinder Diameter in the Driver
With the rotary installed, the diameter measured, and the cylinder held tightly in place, you are ready to print.
1. Select the 3-Jaw Chuck option in the Laser Dashboard's General Tab.
2. Notice that for small diameter cylinders the driver limits the Vector speed in Vector mode only. Larger diameter
cylinders do not have speed limitations.
3-Jaw Chuck Focus
With your cylinder in place on the Rotary Attachment,
place the focus gage on the lens carriage and then scroll
to Focus mode on the Fusion Control Panel. The carriage
will move back after one second so that the focus gage is
centered over your cylinder.
When you are finished focusing press the Reset key on the
Control Panel. The lens carriage will go back to its standard
Rotary Home Position. You are now ready to start the job.
