4. ترتیب کول

۱. خلاصول او ځای پر ځای کول

Carefully remove the engraver from its packaging. Place the machine on a stable, level surface capable of supporting its weight (approximately 251 lb.). Ensure sufficient clearance around the machine for ventilation and access to the pass-through doors.

4.2. Connecting Cooling System

The CO2 laser tube requires water cooling. Connect the provided water pump to the designated inlet and outlet ports on the machine. Fill the water reservoir with distilled water. Ensure the water pump is submerged and operating correctly before powering on the laser.

4.3. Connecting Air Assist

Connect the air assist compressor to the machine's air inlet. The air assist system helps to clear debris from the laser's path and reduce scorching during cutting and engraving.

4.4. Exhaust System Installation

Attach the exhaust fan and ducting to the machine's exhaust port. Route the ducting to an outdoor vent or a suitable filtration system to safely remove smoke and fumes from the workspace.

4.5. بریښنایی پیوستون

Connect the power cable to the machine and a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the power supply matches the machine's requirements.

4.6. Software Installation (LightBurn)

Install the LightBurn software on your computer. Follow the instructions provided with your LightBurn license for installation and activation. Connect the engraver to your computer via USB or Ethernet cable.

5. عملیات

5.1. په بریښنا چالانول

Ensure all connections (power, water, air, exhaust) are secure. Turn on the main power switch on the machine. Allow the water cooling system to circulate before proceeding.

5.2. Loading Material

Open the machine lid and place your material onto the workbed. Ensure the material is flat and securely positioned. For larger materials, utilize the four-way pass-through doors.

۲. د آټوفوکس فعالیت

The machine features an autofocus function. Position the laser head over the material and activate the autofocus. The laser head will automatically adjust to the optimal focal distance for your material, ensuring precise engraving and cutting.
