5. Asennus ja asennus

Follow these steps to install the LT-80W-F45 laser module on your CNC 3018 machine:

Katkaise virta: Before starting, ensure all power to your CNC machine is disconnected.
Remove Existing Spindle: Loosen the screws on the side of the bracket that holds your existing spindle or laser module. Carefully remove it.
Install LT-80W-F45: Insert the LASER TREE LT-80W-F45 module into the bracket. The cylindrical design is made to fit securely. Tighten the screws to fix the module in place.
Asenna suojakansi: Ensure the laser protective cover is properly installed over the laser output aperture.
Connect Air Pipe: Attach the provided air pipe to the air assist port on the module. Connect the other end to an air pump (not included) for optimal cutting performance.
Kytke johdotus: Connect the 3-pin input cable (VCC, GND, PWM) from the laser module to the corresponding ports on your CNC machine's control board. Refer to your CNC machine's manual for specific wiring diagrams if needed.

6. Käyttöohjeet

The LT-80W-F45 module is capable of engraving and cutting a wide range of materials. Always perform small test cuts or engravings on scrap material to determine optimal settings (speed, power, passes) for your specific material.

6.1 Materiaalien yhteensopivuus

This laser module can be used on various materials, including but not limited to:

Wood (plywood, pinewood, bamboo)
MDF-levy
Nahka
Musta akryyli
Stainless steel (engraving without black paint)
Fabric, Paper, Rock slabs

6.2 Tarkennus

The LT-80W-F45 features a fixed-focus design. Use the provided focus fixing plates to set the correct focal distance between the laser module and your material. Typically, the optimal focal length is 45mm.

6.3 Air Assist

Utilizing air assist significantly improves cutting and engraving quality by blowing away smoke and debris, preventing charring, and enhancing the cutting effect. It is highly recommended for cutting thicker materials.

Air Assist Comparison — Figure 6.1: Comparison of cutting results with and without air assist, demonstrating cleaner edges and reduced smudging when air assist is used.

6.4 Kaiverrus ja leikkausamples

The module offers remarkable cutting and engraving capabilities:

Cutting through 8mm thickness plywood by one pass at a speed of 1.5mm/s.
Directly engraving mirror stainless steel without needing to paint it black.

Leikkausominaisuudet — Figure 6.2: Demonstrations of the module's cutting capabilities on various materials: 8mm plywood, 15mm pinewood, and 5mm acrylic, all achieved in a single pass.

7. Huolto

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and consistent performance of your laser module.

Clean Protective Lens: Regularly inspect and clean the protective window glass. Fingerprints or debris on the lens can significantly affect cutting ability and decrease power output. Use a soft, lint-free cloth and lens cleaning solution.
Keep Fan Clear: Ensure the built-in cooling fan (10000 rpm) is free from dust and obstructions to maintain optimal heat dissipation.
Tarkista liitännät: Periodically check all electrical and air assist connections to ensure they are secure.

8. Vianmääritys

If you encounter issues with your laser module, consider the following common problems and solutions:

Ei laserlähtöä:
- Check all power and signal connections (VCC, GND, PWM).
- Ensure the CNC control board is supplying the correct voltage (DC 12V) and PWM signal (5V PWM modulation).
- Verify that the laser is enabled in your software.
Weak Laser Power/Poor Cutting:
- Clean the protective lens as described in Section 7.
- Verify the focal distance is correctly set (45mm).
- Check if the air assist is functioning correctly and providing sufficient airflow.
- Adjust power and speed settings in your engraving software.
Moduulin ylikuumeneminen:
- Varmista, että jäähdytystuuletin toimii eikä mikään estä sitä.
- Operate in a well-ventilated environment.
Compatibility Issues with CNC Board:
- Some CNC motherboards may require an interface adapter board if they do not supply sufficient wattage or have different pin configurations (e.g., 2-pin vs. 3-pin).
- Always cross-reference your CNC board's pinout with the laser module's requirements.

If problems persist, please contact LASER TREE customer support for assistance.
