40 VE810 Engraver Manual
Now we must adjust the depth of cut. The depth you will need to set depends on the type
of material you are cutting. You can generally find out how deep to cut engraving plastic
from the manufacturer or distributor. As a general rule, you can start out shallow and
increase the depth while you are engraving. Since the cutter is zeroed, we will not get
any depth right now, so let’s set the depth. Turn the micrometer to the right 7 clicks. This
will engrave at a depth of .007 of an inch. If you need more depth, turn the micrometer to
the right. If you need less depth, turn the micrometer to the left. Each click is .001 of an
inch.
Turn the VE-810 Engraver on by flipping the switch on the back left side of the machine.
Set up the job you would like to engrave in the Vision Software. (For more information on
this, see the Vision Engraving Software manual.) Put the material on the T-slot table as
described in the previous section. Make sure the PROX button light is green. If it is red,
press the PROX button until the light on the PROX button is green. Make sure the
SPINDLE ON/OFF button is green. If not, press the SPINDLE ON/OFF button until it turns
green. Do the same fo the AUX button if you are usuing a vacuum system. From the
Vision software, press the F9 key to send the job to the VE-810 engraver. You will get the
following screen:
Click OK
You will see that the green light near the start button will start to flash. This means that
there is a job in the VE-810. Now press start. The job should now engrave. If there are
any problems, press the stop button immediately.
