Description
1 Laser Power :
Sets the output level of laser power.
Setting Range
Reference
• Set the laser power in increments of 0.5.
• The laser power gradually decreases due to the degradation of laser. Do not use it with the initial value of 100.
2 Scan Speed :
Specifies the traveling speed of laser on the marking surface.
Setting Range
CAUTION
3 Laser Pulse Cycle (Except LP-SxxxW type) :
Adjusts the interval of laser pulse cycle.
The larger the value set, the higher the peak power becomes. Note that when setting larger value for the pulse
cycle, the line tends to be marked in dot line after scanning with high speed.

1 to 12000 mm/s (LP-M500 / LP-S500 / LP-Z130)*
• If too high laser power is set or too slow scan speed is set, it may flame up or
burn depending on the material to be used for the marking. At test marking,
radiate the laser by setting rather low laser power and rather fast scan speed,
check the marking quality, and adjust the setting value gradually.
