To B – Focusing by software:
B1. Click the icon “focus laser” in the Trotec JobControl
The working table moves in Z direction.
The following values are used to determine the focus position and
therefore always have to be checked before using this focus option:
- material thickness (specify the value as accurate as possible)
- table height (check if right table is selected in Options)
- lens type (specify the according lens)
To C – Automatic focusing by means of light barriers (optional):
The automatic focusing is only possible if the work piece is thicker than
the rulers.
The Autofocus option might not work on transparent materials or
materials which are not flat.
Bear in mind that defects from head crashes (working head hits
material or working table) are NOT warranted.
C1. By pressing the two keys for Z positioning (1) of the working table
simultaneously, the laser beam is automatically focused onto the work
piece (If you don’t have the autofocus-option, the table will go down to
Z = 0).
