(3) 10, 1, 0.1 Buttons
These buttons are used to adjust laser’s power in increments of 10%, 1%, and % respectively. As
expected, + increases the power by the appropriate increment. – decreases the power by the appropriate
increment.
(4) Laser Power Display
This displays the current power of the laser as a percent of its maximum intensity. Adjust this setting
according to the material being processed. For most materials, an intensity between 20% and 60% is
optimal. When aligning the laser beam, you should use a setting lower than 30% for safety reasons.
Fig. 3–2. A Type-B control panel.
Type-B Control Panel: This control panel features an analog power display, showing the strength of
the laser as a reading in milliamperes (mA). The laser’s power is djusted by turning the current knob.
(1) On/Off Switch
This switch is the main power switch. When switched to ON, the laser will move to the top left corner.
