Safety requirements
In order to avoid possible danger, this product can only be used within the specified range.
(1) Anybody should not look steadily at the laser beam without wearing goggle when engraving/cutting.
(2) Do not try to check the laser beam coming by following the laser beam path, it will hurt your eyes, even the case
is closed, there is the possibility on opening with an error.
(3) Children, mental retardation and the people who don’t understand laser character should not use the machine.
(4) The type of laser is not visible, so prohibit putting flammable, explosive materials near to the equipment (The
deviation of laser may lead fire).
(5) Ground Wire between the machine and ground must be connected well before your operation (To avoid static
electricity which might hurt operator and machine),
(6) Machine top cover should be sealed to prevent the deviation of laser wounding during machine working.
(7) There is high voltage inside the machine, the non-specialists are strictly forbidden to disassemble the machines
without permission.
(8) During the machine working, the operator must always observe the work of machine (For example: if the air
from air compressor or pump flows properly, if the laser firing is fine, if the machine sounds abnormal, and if the
temperature of circulating water is correct, etc.). Operator should not leave in case of unnecessary losses.
(9) Don’t power on the machine when the voltage is unstable, otherwise you must use the regulator.
(10) The water should be kept clean, and the temperature should be 15-35 degrees (recommended high-purity water).
(11) Don’t use the max. Current for too long, to avoid breakdown of laser power which might reduce the laser tube
life.
(12) laser power supply used in the basic constraints (the maximum current can not exceed 35mA)

Ⅰ. Summary
1.1 Advantages of Laser Processing Technology
Processing field is the largest field of laser technology application. Laser processing technology is a technology that
using the interaction of laser beam and objects makes marking, cutting, welding, surface treatment, punch, micro
processing on materials, as well as the illuminant recognition objects. It has been a key technology of industrial
production automation. The valuable features of lasers---good coherence, excellent monochromatic, perfect
directivity, high brightness determines the advantages of laser in processing fields:
Laser as a processing method, no interactions between laser and work piece, with the advantages of no touching, no
cutting force, small thermal effect, and no mechanical deformation, so it ensures the original precision of the work
piece. Also both power and speed of high energy laser beam can be adjusted, so can achieve the purpose of various
processing. Meanwhile, the adaptability of materials is very extensive, so it can make high precision marks on surface
of various materials and with very good durability.

Ⅲ The Installation of Laser machine
3.1. Unpack the package box
After opening the packing box, please check out whether there is any damage on laser tube or not. Then check the
complete machine to see whether there is any scratch on the surface and the completeness of fittings.
3.2. Positioning
The machine should be put in cool and dry places. It should be placed close to earth wire. After the machine has been
adjusted, please don’t move it again, otherwise the ray path has to be readjusted.
After placing the machine, please fix the six bottom wheels. if the machine shaking, please adjust the screws on the
holder via making it up or down, tighten the nut after adjusting well, and make it stationary. Structure diagram as
follows:
1.Fixed wheel which can be moved up and down.
2.Universal wheel, the directions can be changed discretionarily.

performance, even damage to the machine or personal safety
The air humidity of the install place should not more than 50%, and
well-ventilated
Be carful for the shock hazard! Sometimes an electric spark
will be produced when you plug the power socket. Avoid
electrical shock and to ensure personal safety.

3.4 Laser Tube structure and installation
Laser tube is the short of sealed CO2 laser tube. It is the most important part of the laser equipment.。because the laser
device is sealed by the glass tube, so it is called laser tube.
Structure of the laser tube:it is the most important part of the laser equipment. Usually adopt hard glass and with
layer structure. The most inside part is power pipe, the second layer is water cooling pipe, the most outside layer for
gas. The thickness of power pipe has non business with the our put laser power, mainly considering for the diffraction
effects caused by laser light spot, should be determined according to length of tube.
Longer tube will be a little thicker, shorter tube will be a little thinner. length and output power is proportional. Within
a certain length scope, every meter power pipe increases the power as the length increasing. The two sides of power
pipe connect with gas pipe, that mean there is one hole at one side for them to connect, at the other side connect via
Tracheal spiral. Then it could make the gas Cycle between power pipe and gas pipe, and change the gas at any time.
The function of water-cooled jacket is to cool the gas and make the output power stable.
The model of laser tube is usually decided by laser power, the normal model is: 25W, 40W, 60W, 80W, 100W, 120W.
Laser tube with different laser power with different length, such as 60w laser tube is 1200mm or 1.25mm, 80w is
1600mm.
Installation of the laser tube:
1). The laser tube is glass material and fragile. Remove the screws with the alien wrench (in the toolbox), put the
laser tube onto the two bases. The side of the laser tube which sending out laser should face the first reflecting
mirror. The distance between the side of the laser tube and the first reflecting mirror is 2-5cm. Fix the tube with the
clips.
1 Clip ring of laser tube
2 is full reflected mirror
2)Installation of the pipes of the water chiller
a) The inlet water pipe is towards the earth while outlet pipe towards the sky. Turn on the water chiller, check if there
are bubbles in the tube after one minute cycling of the water. If bubbles coming out, please loose the clips of the tube
and rotate the laser tube to extrusion the bubbles.

12
b) The laser tube should avoid generating incrustation which would cause water stemming. If there is incrustation,
please clean it with 20% diluted hydrochloric acid.
3.5 Laser Power Supply installation
1) Laser tube wire installing:
2) Distinguish correctly the laser tube’s positive and cathode, As usual, laser output port is cathode (-), then the
other is the anode (+).
1. Water inlet of the tube 2. Anode (+) of the laser tube
3. Water outlet of the tube 4. Cathode (-) of the laser tube
3.6 Water chiller installation:
Connect the rubber pipe with the laser tube and water chiller. The outlet of the water chiller connects the inlet of the
machine, the inlet of the water chiller connects the outlet of the machine. After one minute of water circulation,
please check out whether there is any bubble in the laser tube. If there is, please turn over the tube to push the bubble
out.
The cooling water could not frozen in cold regions, especially
after the machine stop working, guarantee there is no cooling
water within the laser tube to avoid the crack generated by
cooling water frozen.
Please note: the driving way of the laser tube is high-voltage drive, and
the work voltage is about more than 18KW, To avoid electrical shock,
please electrostatic discharge before dismounting the power,
Please differ the positive and negative poles, don’t connect them
wrongly; or else will effect the lifetime of the laser tube, even damage to
it;

a) Requirements of the water in the water chiller: The water should be purified water or high purity water. The
temperature of the water in the chiller should be 15℃-30℃. If the temperature is too high, please change the water or
turn off the machine.
b) The flow of water should be 2L -4L/minute. If too much or too little, the laser dot quality and laser power will be
affected. The chiller should be full, otherwise the tube can not be cooled well.
c) It is suggested the water in the chiller should be changed once a week.

Ⅳ.Structure and adjusting of laser path
4.1 Structure of the laser path
Laser Path is ray guide system. The complete optical system is made up of laser tube, three reflecting mirrors, focus
lens and relevant adjusting devices. Ray path has close relationship with the effect of engraving and cutting.
Therefore please be patient and careful when adjusting the ray path.
Laser Path affects the effect of engraving and cutting greatly. Therefore please be patient and careful when adjusting
the ray path.
Notice: Please be sure the water cycling is normal before the machine working, otherwise the laser tube will be
damaged.
