Laser Engraving & Cutting Control System Manual
40.384001 in the picture above means the distance of the laser head moves every round of the motor is 40.384001 mm. 6400
is the pulse every round of the motor needs. The Pulse Unit can be set by measuring. Then click on Measureto introduce
the dialog box below:
Taking the example of the above dialogue, you will have to draw a line whose length is 100mm in the software, and then
and do the cutting. Measure the work piece. The actual length of the line has to be 90mm. Input the value, and the system
will calculate the pulse unit automatically.
3.7.1.3 Home/Datum Dir
The right of the X-Axis and upside of the Y-Axis are POSITIVE directions. Ensure the correspondence of the switch
position on the original point and the setting of this option.
3.7.1.4 Home/Datum Offset
After datum, the laser head will move a distance along the reverse direction of the origin switch.
3.7.1.5 Home/Datum Speed
The speed of the laser head going when back to the original point. It SHOULD NOT be too large, or the switch of the
original point may be damaged.
3.7.1.6 Slow Jog Speed
The test speed of the laser head, when Auto datumis not chosen.
3.7.1.7 Fast Jog Speed
The test speed of the laser head, when ‘Auto datum’ is chosen.
3.7.1.8 Jog Acceleration
It is the acceleration FROM start speed to jog speed.
3.7.1.9 Max Change Speed
It is the maximum speed of changing the directions of the X or Y axis. The SMALLER the value is, the better the quality is,
but the lower the efficiency of the processing will be.
3.7.1.10 Backlash
It is used to compensate the backlash in cutting.
3.7.1.11 Z-Axis
The Z-axis should be enabled. The Z-axis can be used as auxiliary head of a 2-Head machine, feeding axis and the Z axis
(lifting the worktable).
