Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 System Introduction
LFS-ANM-T43-V2 Non-metal distance controller（hereinafter referred to as ’Non-metal
distance controller’）. It is a non-metallic cutting automatic distance system based on laser
displacement sensing technology. It can work with RDC633XM for non-metal cutting control
system. The system mainly consists of the following parts：
Motion control system, including motion controller, operation panel and relative control
software
Non-metal distance controller, Laser displacement sensor and laser cutting head
Auxiliary gas switch relay
Positive and negative limit switches of laser cutting head
The motion control system is primarily responsible for the control of the entire non-metal
cutting motion and the external accessories. Non-metal distance controller adjusts the distance
automatically from the sensor to the cutting object according to the laser displacement sensor. To
make that the laser focus falls on the surface of the nonmetal object. The laser head is use to install
focus lens (long lens and short lens) and protection lens, at the same time do same air cooling for
those lens. The non-metal distance controller can control the auxiliary gas automatically. Limit
switch signal connect to the non-metal distance controller to protect motor motion.

1.3 Laser displacement sensor
The laser displacement sensor adopts the principle of laser reflection ranging. The bottom of
the sensor is the laser transmitting window and the laser receiving window. The distance between
the laser transmitting window and the focal plane is 100mm, which is changed according to the
different sensor models. Suppose the distance of the selected sensor is 100mm. The center
moment of the sensor is 100mm, and the detection range is ±35mm. The wavelength of the
laser emitted by the sensor is 655nm, as shown in Figure 1.1. Do not stare into beam.
Focus position
100mm
This product is not suitable for the following occasions：
Highly reflective material
The material that absorbs infrared light at a wavelength of 650 nm
Transparent material
The slope changes dramatically occasion

3.2.2 Parameters Setting
It can set the parameters from “Menu” main interface. Including process parameters, height
parameters, speed parameters, machine parameters etc.
Remarks: Please setting parameters correctly when using the non-metal distance
controller, otherwise, the non-metal distance controller cannot work.
The meanings of the parameters are shown in the following ：
Technical
Para
Filter Factor
Increase these parameters to improve the response
speed of the following. But it is easy to shock when
moving. Please set suitable parameters.
Alarm filter
This parameter should not be set too large. Excessive
alarm filter coefficients cannot prevent the cutting
head when breaks down. In contrast, too small alarm
filter coefficient is easy to cause the laser
displacement sensor wrong detection to alarm.
