17000 - CO2 Laser Alignment
1. Inspect the location of the red dot in
relation to the burn mark left by the
laser.
If additional viewing space is needed to
observe the alignment target, the y-axis
bellows can be disconnected from the
x-axis assembly.
2. For an accurate alignment, both the
red dot and burn mark should appear
in the same exact location on the
tape.
3. If both the red dot and burn mark
appear in the same exact location on
the tape, move to the next section of
the alignment procedure.
At this point in the alignment procedure,
the goal is that the red dot and burn
mark are aligned with each other. The
position of the red dot and burn mark in
relation to the center of the alignment
target is not important.
4. If both the red dot and burn mark do
not appear in the same exact location
on the tape, remove the lower rear
panel of the engraver and locate the
red dot diode to the right side of the
laser tube:
Adjusting the Red Dot
1. Adjust the red dot so that it is
centered over the burn mark on the
masking tape made by the laser using
the three (3) Allen adjustment screws:
2. Once the red dot and burn mark
appear in the same exact spot, install
the lower rear panel of the engraver
and move to the Cutting Laser
Alignment procedure
Cutting Laser Alignment
It is very important that the laser and the
red dot are coaxial prior to beginning this
process. You will not be able to properly
align the laser if the red dot and the
cutting laser are not coaxial.
For alignment purposes, the table of the
engraver is separated into four (4)
quadrants or table positions. The
location of each quadrant or position is
determined by the relative distance from
the laser.
