„ 3D Marking Method
There are two methods for marking 3D figure, "Label Sticking Marking Method" and "Vertical Projection Marking Method".
The marking method is determined depending on the type of the 3D figure.
• Label sticking marking method: plane, cylinder (marking on convex /concave face), horizontal cone (marking on convex /
concave face)
• Vertical projection marking method: vertical cone (marking on convex /concave face), sphere (marking on convex /
concave face)
Label sticking marking method
With this method, the laser marker performs the marking on the 3D figure like sticking label on the 3D figure.
Target type of 3D figure: plane, cylinder (marking on convex/concave face), sphere (marking on convex /concave face)

Reference
• When marking on cylinder and cone, set the starting position of marking content X and Y by measuring the length on
curved face.
• When setting status of the marking content exceeds the figure area (see figure below) and starting marking, the marking
error (E671/E672) is occurred and the laser marker cannot perform marking. Therefore, check the marking content
using "3D View Screen" ("2-14-3 3D View Screen" (P.213))‚ and perform guide indication of the marking character before
marking. When the marking content is displayed within the figure area, start the marking.
