Light Barrier Focus - Trotec Speedy 360 flexx Operating Manual

Operation
Notice
Using a flexx lens the focus point differs depending on the laser source.
When carrying out a software focus, JobControl® is going to switch to the right laser source and adjusts the
focus point difference automatically as soon the lens type and processing type per laser source get entered
into the material database in JobControl®. Manually switching the laser source is therefore not necessary.
Whenever the flexx lens and a CO2 laser source processing type gets selected, the table will drive down
automatically ("standard" focus procedure).

Light barrier focus

Notice
The light barrier autofocus is ideal for flat opaque materials of unknown thickness.
This autofocus option will not wok on transparent, rough or very thin material, which is thinner
as the ruler itself.

Focusing is then complete, and you can start the laser
processing.
