Laser Output Optimize - Panasonic LP-S Series Maintenance Manual

4-2-8 Laser output optimize

[Function specific to LP-Sxxx type]*
Using "Laser Output Optimize" function improves the accuracy of "Laser output measurement/correction" results.
After the installation, replacement or moving of laser marker, use this "Laser Output Optimize" function by following the
procedures as described below.
„ To use this function
• This function requires the commercially available laser power meter.
• Use a calibrated laser power meter.
• Use a laser power meter that has the damage threshold (max. power density) of more than 10 kW/cm
• The laser detector diameter of the laser power meter should be more than 10 mm.
• Adjust the power correction rate using this function every time when the laser marker installation condition is changed.
• The measurement results might have +/-5% difference with normal temperature (20 to 30 Celsius degree).
• The +/-10% difference might occur under the high/low temperature. Correcting power under normal temperature is
recommended.
• Before using this function, confirm the laser emission port is clean. The contamination or scratch on the laser emission
port might be a cause of inaccurate results of the laser power measurement.
• After using the function, the marking energy measurement results may change.
Confirm the measurement result of the marking energy and adjust "Marking Energy Upper/Lower Limit" value, especially
in case "Marking Energy Upper/Lower Limit" is set with small value.
