  • Page 8: Introduction

    Introduction The U300 fiber is a second generation of a high quality marking laser. The Yb fiber laser source means the system has an extremely long life cycle and minimal maintenance costs. This system is maintenance free apart from the filter pad and processing lens. The combination of a high quality galvanometer scanner and a fiber laser produce highly precise marking results in short marking times.

  • Page 30: Mechanical Installation

    Mechanical installation The correct, stable and reproducible alignment of the working head in relation to the workpiece to be marked is a prerequisite for faultless marking results. The marking head should therefore be installed with appropriate care. Alignment The focal plane lies parallel to the working head base plate. When installing the marking head it is therefore important to ensure that the marking head base plate is aligned as parallel as possible to the intended processing plane.
  • Page 31: Electrical Installation

    Electrical installation Following the mechanical installation of the marking head, laser rack and PC, the components must be connected to one another electrically. (The laser rack and marking head are already connected to one another on delivery.) The peripherals (power supply, external control and safety signals, etc.) are then connected via the laser rack and PC interfaces.

    Focusing Notice It is absolutely essential to maintain the correct focal distance for every laser marking process. Only when in focus will the laser beam achieve the power density necessary for permanent and clearly legible marking. Prior to any marking it is therefore necessary to set the correct focal distance between the marking head and the workpiece.
