How to solve the Laser Problems
Laser is not light up
The laser does not emit any light. It may caused by:
=== 1, The laser may not has a power supply. === There is a fan on the top of the laser, if the fan is not turning, the laser has no power supply. please check whether the laser wire connection is in good condition, and the main circuit board is power up. Usually there is a led power indicator and a power switch beside the power cord.
===2, The main circuit board may not signal the laser to turn on. === Usually there is a laser working signal led on the circuit board. The laser should light up when this led lights up. If the led is not light up, please check the circuit board or the software status.
Laser not burns anythings
The laser lights up but not burn anything.It may caused by:
1, Laser not focused.
If you assemble your own laser engraving machine. You need focus the laser before first cutting. If you want to cut objects of different heights. You also need to focus the laser again. See How to adjust the laser focus.
2, Material is to far or to close to laser.
About 7CM is easier distance to focus. see See How to adjust the laser focus.
3, Unsupported engraving material.
Some material is hard to marked by laser, for example:metallic, reflective, transparent, white color objects…
Try other things, woods and this kind of paper is easy to burn.
