4. സജ്ജീകരണ നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ
The ATOMSTACK Swift features a modular design for quick assembly. Follow these steps for initial setup:
4.1 Unboxing and Component Layout
Carefully open the packaging and lay out all components on a clean, flat surface. Refer to the included quick start guide for a visual representation of all parts.
Video 4.1: This video demonstrates the unboxing and assembly process of the ATOMSTACK Swift laser engraver. It shows how to lay out the components and connect them to form the main frame.
4.2 ഫ്രെയിം അസംബ്ലി
- Connect Assemblies: Place the five main frame assemblies as shown in the video. Ensure the X-axis assembly has the belt facing downward and the Y-axis assembly with the motor is on the left side. Align and connect these assemblies.
- സുരക്ഷിത സ്ക്രൂകൾ: Secure the connected assemblies with six M5x8 screws using the provided tool.
- Install Optical Shaft: Insert the optical shaft onto the X-axis assembly. Push the X-axis toward the front X-axis assembly, ensuring it is fully inserted and aligned parallel.
- Tighten Coupling and Timing Pulley: Tighten the coupling and the timing pulley on the optical shaft.
Figure 4.2: The modular design of the ATOMSTACK Swift allows for quick assembly, typically within 5 minutes.
4.3 Laser Module Installation and Cable Connections
- Install Laser Module: Carefully install the laser module onto the X-axis carriage and tighten the thumb screw to secure it.
- കേബിളുകൾ ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Connect the motor cable, limit switch cables, and the laser module cable to their respective ports. Ensure all connections are secure.
4.4 ഫോക്കസ് അഡ്ജസ്റ്റ്മെന്റ്
Proper focus is crucial for optimal engraving and cutting results.
- Place Workpiece: Place your material (workpiece) on the engraving area.
- ഫോക്കസ് ക്രമീകരിക്കുക: Turn the side knob on the laser module to adjust the focus. The goal is to achieve the smallest possible laser spot on the material surface.
- Optical Shaft Clearance: If the hand-tightened screw interferes with the optical shaft, pull out the black part, rotate it outward, and then release it to ensure proper clearance.
4.5 X-axis Adjustment
To ensure smooth movement of the X-axis, adjust the eccentric nut:
- Use an open-end wrench to adjust the eccentric nut until the X-axis can slide down smoothly when the machine is tilted at a 45-degree angle. This ensures there is no excessive play or binding in the movement.
