Precaution

  • Never leave the laser device unattended while the system is operating.
  • Always have a fire extinguisher available, as the laser beam can ignite flammable materials.
  • Do not put any flammanle materials in the inside of the device or in the immediate surroundings of the device.
  • Be aware of all Laser safety stickers on the machine and follow them.
  • The system must be used only by authorized and trained personnel.
  • Avoid electrostatic charging during cable connections / plug-in.
  • Do not start the Laser machine without an adequate exhaust system.
  • In case of a broken lens: avoid direct skin contact and inhaling.
  • "EMERGENCY-STOP": on any risk: LIFT THE COVER LID!

Geometry

  • Join the geometry

700 × 402 pixels

  • Check the scale of the drawing , make sure you are in millimeters and that your material fits in the laser.

700 × 402 pixels

  • Seldup command selects duplicate lines. Keep in mind that is there are more than one lines the laser cutter will pass more times over the same place.

700 × 402 pixels

  • Make2d if you import your drawing from other programs other than rhino and to make sure that everything is on 0 in Z plane.
