  • Page 7: Principles Of A Co 2 Laser

    1.1 Principles of a CO Laser LASER is the acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. A CO laser works by electrically stimulating the molecules within a carbon dioxide gas mixture. When focused through a lens, this highly-intense, invisible beam will vaporize many materials. Depending on the speed and intensity of the projected beam, a CO laser may be used to engrave or cut through a wide variety of materials.

  • Page 8: Safety Labels

    1.4 Safety Labels According to CDRH standards, all fixed or removable covers that allow access to a laser beam must have the appropriate laser warning labels attached to them. These warning labels must be clearly visible to the operator prior to removing the cover. Additional labels must be applied inside of the machine and be visible in the event the covers are removed.
  • Page 9 Safety Label CDRH and CE regulations require that all laser manufacturers add warning labels in specific locations throughout the equipment. The following warning labels are placed on the laser system for your safety. Do not remove these labels for any reason. If the labels become damaged or have been removed for any reason, do not operate the laser system and immediately contact Great Computer Cooperation or e-mail us for a replacement.
  • Page 10 ❺ Warning Label Warning label is written with all necessary information to be aware of during operation. ❸ ❷ ❽ ❻ Laser Path Warning Label LaserPro machines are very safe under normal use. Furthermore, Laser Path Warning Label are displayed at the proximities of possible laser paths as a reminder.

    ❽ Electrical Safety Label DANGEROUS VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT WITHIN THE ELECTRONICS ENCLOSURES OF THIS SYSTEM. Access to these areas is not necessary during normal operation. If it becomes necessary to open one of these enclosures for service reasons, please remember to disconnect the power cord from your electrical supply.
  • Page 12 WARNING!  Resulting debris from laser processing are very dangerous and may cause fire hazard.  DO NOT leave debris and scraps inside laser machine after job finished. Must keep machine clean after job finished.  Always remove the vector grid to clean any small pieces that have fallen through the grid.

  • Page 13: Operating Environment

     Do not laser heat-sensitive surfaces or materia that may generate toxic fumes, such as PVC and Teflon.  Regularly clean and maintain your machine according to our cleaning and maintenance Instructions in Chapter 8. Doing so will ensure your machine will operate effectively and safely over a long period of time.

  • Page 75 NOTE Outputting a full-table (25.1" x 18.1") job using 300 or 600 DPI will result in a truncation error; this is due to the large differences in set DPI vs. actual DPI output for those two particular DPI settings. Therefore, when processing a 25.1" x 18.1" job using 300 DPI, we recommend you move to the next higher DPI setting of 380.
  • Page 76 PEN [DEFAULT SETTING: Speed 50, Power 50, PPI 400] The LaserPro E200S incorporates the use of 5 different colors to represent 5 different laser power and speed settings when cutting and engraving. These colors are referred to as “Pen”. Think of each pen as a designated laser setting, rather than as a color.
  • Page 77 Power (Pen Page) [DEFAULT SETTING: 50] The power slider controls the laser’s power during operation (engraving/cutting power) with a range setting from 0 – 100%. The percentage setting represents the power for each laser pulse fired. The lower the power setting, the shallower it engraves or cuts, and vice-versa. The power slider controls the laser’s power during operation (engraving /cutting power) with a range setting from 0 100% (PWM signal provided by the mainboard).
  • Page 78 need to select the pen color that you have assigned to the sections to be cut and select the Air checkbox for those particular pen colors.

Connect the 4” diameter adaptor to the ventilation opening located on the rear side of GCC E200S machine. (As shown in the picture below). Try to keep this tubing as straight as possible as bends reduce the exhaust efficiency.

  • Page 98: Air Compressor

    8.2 Air Compressor Specifically designed for laser engravers, the air compressor utilizes an oil-free diaphragm. The air compressor helps to eliminate harmful and potentially damaging moisture from the laser optics, maximizing life of the laser optics. In addition, the air compressor provides an optimal airflow to the SmartAIR nozzles to minimize flaming, suppress working temperatures, and blow away dust and particle by products generated from the laser process.
  • Page 99 Connect a 1/4" tubing to the pressure relief valve of the compressor. NOTE It is important that the 1/4" air tubing has clean, straight cuts on each end. Jagged or slanted cuts will not produce adequate sealing capabilities. Plug the air compressor’s power cord into the “For Air Compressor” power socket. Plug the female end of power cord to the power cord B socket.
