What is laser?

Laser is an acronym from Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

Types of laser tubes

Synrad. There are 12W, 25W, 30W, 60W and 100W models with Synrad laser tubes and also
there are 30W, 40W, 60W, and 100W models with Coherent Deos laser tubes.

There are two types of laser sources used with the Spirit, namely Coherent-Deos and

How to measure the power output of a laser tube?

(GCLPM2500AA) that will measure the heat generated and convert it to a power reading. The
best place to measure the laser output power is at the immediate output of the laser tube (before
to mirror 1).

In order to measure the power output of a laser tube, we need to use a power meter

The laser beam generated by the laser source is reflected and guided by 4 optical lenses on

to the working area. Therefore the proper adjustment and maintenance of them are crucial.

Optical Alignment

Understanding Reflection.

X X Y Y

Light enters at an angle and leaves at an angle.
If light enters at an angle X, it will leave at an angle X.
If light enters at an angle Y, it will leave at an angle Y.

Beam Alignment

The laser beam is guided to the top of the working area by using 4 reflective mirrors.
Therefore, these mirror adjustments are crucial to the proper functioning of the machine. If the
laser beam is not aligned correctly, the beam path will be shifted or tilted and both rastering
and vectoring quality will be affected.

Step 1: Unscrew the back panel of the machine revealing the laser tube and Mirror 1. Turn on
the machine and enter the hidden diagnostic menu by holding down the Autofocus keys while
turning on the machine. Select test laser source. Set laser power to about 5%. Remove the
protective cover of Mirror 1 and remove Mirror 1. Place a cardboard or paper about 1.5 meters
away from the laser source. Fire the laser until you get a small burnt mark on the cardboard.
(Determine the laser beam and the red beam are aligned by seeing if the burnt hole is at the
exact location of the red beam. If they are not, adjust the red beam diode so that the red beam
and the burnt mark are at the same location.) Place Mirror 1 back to the mirror holder.

33/60

Step 2: Place a piece of masking tape over the tube opening that leads to Mirror 2. Fire the
laser and see if it leaves a burnt mark in the center of the hole. Also check that the burnt mark
left by the laser beam is circular in shape. If it is not circular , i.e. oval or other shape, then the
laser beam might have hit the inner tubing and get reflected on the way from Mirror 1 to
Mirror 2. If this is the case, place a piece of masking tape before the tube entrance, fire laser
and adjust Mirror 1 so that laser passes through the center of the opening.

Step 3: Place a masking tape on the opening before Mirror 3. Move the rail along the Y-axis so
that Mirror 3 is close to Mirror 2. Fire the laser and see if the laser beam goes through the
center of the circle. Then move the rail so that Mirror 3 is to the far end of Mirror 2. Fire the
laser and see if it leaves a mark at the same location when it was close to Mirror 2. Adjust
Mirror 2 repeatedly so that the burnt mark is at the center and on top of one another when
Mirror 3 is both close and far from Mirror 2.

Step 4: Place a masking tape on the opening before Mirror 4. Move the pen carriage to the
upper left corner of the working area. Fire the laser and adjust Mirror 3 so the laser beam
passes through the center of the opening. Move the pen carriage to the upper right end of the
working table. Fire the laser and adjust Mirror 3 so the laser beam passes through the center of
the opening. The laser should pass through the same spot when the pen carriage is positioned at
upper left and upper right. Do the same for the bottom left corner and bottom right corner.
Place a masking tape over the nozzle opening. Position the pen carriage at one of the 4 corners
of the working area. Fire the laser and adjust Mirror 1 so the laser passes through the center of
the nozzle opening. Repeat for all 4 corners of the working area. After adjusting Mirror 1, you
may have to re-adjust Mirror 2 and Mirror 3 as well. (Repeating Steps 2 & 3.)
If the laser beam passes through the center of the nozzle opening at all 4 corners, then the laser
beam should have been aligned properly. Cut four 20x20 mm squares at the four corners of the
working area to double check that the edges of the square are not slanted

1. Cleaning of optical lenses

In order to prolong the usability of the optical lenses, it is recommended that we clean the
optical lenses once every week or as required. Since these lenses are coated with a
chemical substance that protects the lens itself from the intensive laser power, we have to
take great care when cleaning the lenses so that we do not scratch or peel off the chemical
substance.
The following are three consumable items that you can purchase to clean the mirrors and
lenses.

1. Cotton buds ZZ01250A

2. Lens cleaning paper ZZ01249A

3. Lens cleaning solution ZZ01248A

carriage.

Apply a drop or two of the cleaning solution on a cotton bud and lightly clean the focusing lens.
Use a second cotton bud to dry or air dry the lens.

Make sure the lens is clean and dried before putting it back in the pen carriage unit.

2. Cleaning and protecting the X, Y rails:

In order to prevent the X and Y rails from chemical by-products produced when laser

passes through acrylic sheets, applying NSK, PS2 grease can prevent the rails from being

43

corroded.

Distributed & Supported by: Jorlink USA, Inc. | Tel: [phone] | [email protected] | www.JORLINK.com

45/60

It is recommended that the X-rail should be cleaned daily or after each day’s operation.
The Y-rail requires the same type of cleaning and greasing about once a week. Use a piece of
non-abrasive cloth to swipe and clean the rails. Then apply a small amount of the PS2 grease
on to the rail and swipe it clean again.

PS2 grease MZ01417A

Please note that there are two rails on the X rail.

There are 2 rails on the Y-axis as well.

The estimated life of a set of rollers is about 500 working hours. To change rollers,
simply remove the hex bolts using a size 3 Allen key as shown below.

Notice that the roller has a wider side and a narrower side. The narrower side should be
closer to the pen carriage.

When installing the new rollers, make sure that we push the roller set towards the pen carriage
so that it is positioned against the lens carriage and then tighten the bolts.

changed.

The LED circled in yellow is the initialization light. This light turns on when the
machine is turned on. It will turn off after the initialization process. If it stays on,
then mainboard is damaged.

The LEDs circled in purple are the door sensor lights.
When all doors are closed, all three LEDs will stay “on”.

When the front door is open or front door sensors malfunctioning, all the LED
will turn off.

When the backdoor is open or the backdoor sensors are malfunctioning, the two
leftmost LEDs will turn “on”.

When the top cover is open or the top cover sensors are malfunctioning, the left
most LED turns to “on”.

The LEDs circled in red are the laser tube status lights.

For 50W & 100W models:
Under normal condition, the fourth light counting from the left will be “ON.”
However, the brightness of the LED depends on the power level used.

When the third LED from the left turns “ON”, either the laser head or the RF
cable is bad.

When the fifth LED from the left turns “ON”, the RF power supply has gone over
temperature.

For 30W models:

Only the two right most LEDs are used for 30W models. Under normal

During initialization, the sixth LED from the left will turn “on” by default. The
LED will turn “off” after the initialization meaning that the laser is ready to fire.
However, if the LED stays on afterwards, that means the laser source is
malfunctioning.

When the last LED from the left turns “ON”, the incoming voltage to the laser
source is incorrect. Check that the output voltage to the laser source is correct.

Note: If the electrical circuit in the laser source has been damaged then the
signals shown may not reflect the exact problem.

Setting tickle pulse on Spirit machines equipped with Synrad laser sources.

By nature, Synrad laser sources require a tickle pulse to keep the laser ready
for firing. The tickle pulse signal required depends on the individual laser tube.
The usual setting is at 5k, however, it may be required to adjust the tickle pulse
rate. If the laser is too weak, we can set it to 7k and if the laser is bleeding, then
we can set it to 3k.
