LightBurn supports importing various vector graphic and image formats, arranging, editing, creating new vector shapes, and applying settings like power, speed, number of passes, cut order, brightness, contrast, and dithering mode.

6. Operation

This section outlines general operational guidelines for your fiber laser engraver.

6.1. Material Compatibility

The machine is suitable for engraving on a wide range of materials:

• Metals: Carbon Steel, Aluminum, Stainless Steel, Brass, Copper, Gold, Silver, etc.
• Non-metals: Some non-metals such as nylon, light buttons, ABS, PVC, PES, etc.

6.2. Lens Selection and Work Area

The choice of lens affects engraving depth and work area:

• The higher the laser power, the deeper the engraving with the same lens.
• A smaller lens allows for deeper engraving at the same power, but reduces the engraving area.
• A larger lens provides a larger engraving area but may result in weaker light intensity and shallower engraving.

Figure 6.1: Quartz field lens advantages include high transmittance, thermal stability, chemical stability, low dispersion, high refractive index, and excellent thermal shock resistance. Also shown is a Mean Well (MW) Power Supply, known for high work efficiency, stability, good heat dissipation, low working temperature, and single output switching power supply.

6.3. Engraving Process

1. Design Preparation: Create or import your design using EzCad Lite or LightBurn software.
2. Material Placement: Place the material to be engraved on the workbench. For cylindrical objects, use the D80 Rotary Axis.
3. Focus Adjustment: Use the focus wheel to adjust the laser focus. The double red light pointer assists in finding the correct focal length.
4. Parameter Settings: Adjust laser parameters (power, speed, frequency, pulse duration) in the software according to the material and desired engraving effect.
5. Preview: Use the red light preview function to check the engraving area before starting.
6. Start Engraving: Initiate the engraving process from the software. Monitor the machine during operation.

6.4. Factory Tested Examples

The machine is capable of various engraving tasks, including deep carving, color marking, and rust removal.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your laser engraver.

• Cleaning Lenses: Periodically clean the field lens and protective window with a specialized lens cleaning solution and lint-free wipes. Avoid touching optical surfaces with bare hands.
• Dust Removal: Keep the machine free of dust and debris, especially around the cooling fans and optical components. Use compressed air for hard-to-reach areas.
• Cable Inspection: Regularly check all cables (power, USB, fiber protect cable) for wear, damage, or loose connections.
• Rotary Axis Maintenance: If using the rotary axis, ensure its moving parts are clean and lubricated as per its specific instructions.
• Software Updates: Keep your EzCad Lite or LightBurn software updated to the latest version for performance improvements and bug fixes.
