ATOMSTACK F30 Air Assist Pump Instruction Manual

1. Introduction

The ATOMSTACK F30 Air Assist Pump is an accessory designed to significantly improve the performance of compatible laser engraving and cutting machines. By providing a focused stream of air, it helps to clear smoke and debris from the laser's path, preventing energy attenuation and ensuring a cleaner, more precise cut or engraving. This system also aids in rapidly cooling the material's surface, minimizing burning and achieving smoother edges on your projects.

5. Operating Instructions

The ATOMSTACK F30 Air Assist Pump is designed for simple operation, providing adjustable airflow to optimize your laser engraving and cutting tasks.

5.1. Power On and Airflow Adjustment

Once connected, turn on the air assist pump using the integrated knob. This knob serves as both the power switch and the airflow adjustment control. Rotate the knob to adjust the airflow from 10 L/min to 30 L/min, depending on your material and desired cutting/engraving effect.

5.2. Benefits During Operation

The adjustable airflow helps to:

• Remove Smoke and Dust: Effectively clears smoke and dust generated during cutting/engraving, preventing energy attenuation and ensuring consistent laser performance.
• Reduce Surface Temperature: Powerful airflow quickly reduces the surface temperature of the material, preventing excessive burning and scorch marks.
• Achieve Cleaner Edges: Contributes to cleaner and smoother cutting edges, enhancing the overall quality of your finished work.

5.3. Low Noise Operation

Even when the airflow is adjusted to its maximum setting, the ATOMSTACK F30 Air Assist Pump operates at a noise level of less than 60dB. This is comparable to the volume of a household electric fan, ensuring a quiet working environment.
