1.5 Components
Front View
A. Cover—The cover provides access to the main bay for placing and retrieving materials, as well as fixing the laser
path alignment and other maintenance. Power to the laser is automatically cut when the cover is opened.
B. Viewing Window—The polycarbonate window is shielded to protect you and others from the laser and its
reflection, allowing monitoring of the engraving process. However, you should never stare continuously at the
laser during operation, even through the window.
C. Y-Axis Rail—The Y-axis rail supports the movement of the X-axis rail up and down the workbed.
D. X-Axis Rail—The X-axis rail holds the 2nd mirror and supports the movement of the laser head left and right
across the workbed.
E. Laser Head—The laser head holds the 3rd mirror, the focus lens, the red dot guidance, and the air assist outlet.
F. Workbed—The workbed can be adjusted in height to fit thinner and thicker materials, as well as adjusted between
the aluminium and honeycomb platforms. This is also where the accessories pack is located when the engraver
first arrives.
G. Control Panel—The control panel offers hands-on control of the engraving process, including manual movement
of the laser head and firing of the laser.
H. Laser Key—This key controls the power supply to your laser tube and air assist. Turn it on after the control
system power and turn it off before.
I. Emergency Stop—This button immediately cuts all power to the laser tube in the event of an emergency.
J. Reset Button—Press this button after the emergency is over to restore power to your machine. You also need to
press this button if the laser is turned off by the interlocks when the cover or one of the doors is opened during
engraving.
