Value
If the processing speed is too fast, it may cause step loss.
Please try again by lowering the speed.
Contact our customer service for instructions on adjusting the tightness
of the X-axis and Y-axis timing belts so that the laser module can move
smoothly.
If the material is too light, the gas coming out of the air nozzle may
nudge the material, causing a deviated image.
Use the material clamp or tape to fix the material before processing.
If the air nozzle hits the material because of the failure of focusing,
which leads to the deviation of the image, check if the material
thickness or distance is the same as the actual value.
