Foreword
First of all, thank you for purchasing and using our products.
Please read this instruction before installing your machine, so as
not to cause unnecessary trouble for your ins tallation and us e .
The equipment is tested before leaving the factory and mee ts
the shipping standards. Before using, please read the following
precautions carefully: 1. The machine has been rigorously tested
before leaving the factory to ensure that all functions of the
machine are in good condition, but the machine must be
transported by logistics. When receiving the goods, please make
sure that the outer packaging of the product is complete and
unpacking. Please check the goods afterwards. If there is any
problem, please contact the after-sales personnel in time; 2. The
machine is connected with the computer by USB, the computer
used for contro l should be dedic a t e d, a nd a s fa r a s poss i ble, do not
install other unrelated application software; Please ensure that
there is a grounding function for the power supply socket. If there
is no grounding, please perform external grounding. 4. This unit
uses single-phase AC 220V, 50Hz (single-phase AC110V,
50/60Hz in some areas), if not allowed, please Do not
disassemble it in order to avoid danger;5. When processing, it is
relatively large when it comes to cutting chips. Especially when
processing metal materials, please wear protective glasses to
prevent metal chips from flying out and hurt your eyes. 6. Do not
approach the spindle rotating at high speed during machining. Do
not touch the workpiece being processed by hand to avoid danger.
7. If accidents are found during work, please turn off the power in
time and wait for a while before re-us e. If the problem is still not
solved, please contact the after-sales personnel.

3. Equipment instructions
3.1. Processing flow
Step 1: the material to be processed is fixed on the machine with the corresponding fixture.
Generally, the thin plate is fixed by double-sided glue, the rectangle is fixed by a vise, and the
shaped workpiece is fixed by a special fixture.
Step 2: Clamp the tool onto the spindle motor. When clamping the tool, it is necessary to pay
attention to the specifications of the clamping tool. It must be the same as the programming
time. The tool should be locked with the spindle wrench. After the tool is clamped, it must be

checked whether the tool will be yawed. Otherwise, the quality of the processed product will
be poor. Broken knives, etc. during processing.
Step 3: Open the control software Mach3 on the computer, turn on the machine power switch,
and release the alarm state.
Step 4: manual tool setting operation, press the keyboard “Tab” on the computer operation
interface to call up the “MPG” interface, click the corresponding button to control the
forward/reverse movement of the machine in the current axis. by
To control the speed of the movement, move the center of the tool
nose to the machining coordinate origin set during programming (f or the convenience of tool
setting, the programming is usually set at the four corners or the center of the material). For
example, when programming, the origin is set in the lower left corner of the m aterial, then we
will align the center of the tool tip with the bottom left corner of the material with the hand
wheel (the spindle speed should be adjusted to about 30% when the tool is set to prevent the
tool from breaking. Knife).

generated is loaded. After the loading is completed, the corresponding simulation path will be
displayed in the upper right corner of the software (if there is no simulation path generation,
the loaded G code is wrong or Can't identify it).
Step 6: After the program is read in, adjust the spindle speed to 80%~100% (the spindle
speed is set according to the processing material), then click “Start” to process the machine.
If it needs to be adjusted during the machining process. The speed of the machining can be
controlled by pulling the column bar of the feed bar.

3.3. Compatible programming software
Mach3 is a PC software that recognizes international G code and is currently
compatible with most software that generates G code on the market. Since the user's
purchase of the machine is not the same, here are some recommended G code
generatio n software for common use.
For two-dimensional processing applications such as engraving, milling, drilling, and
cutting, it is recommended to use Wentai, ArtCAM, Beijing Jinghua software, Type3
and other sof tware, they are compatible with DXF format files.
PCB board engravin g is recommended to use CopperCAM softwar e and is compatible
with Gerber f iles.
Engraving relief is recommended to use ArtCAM and Beijing carving software,
ArtCAM is suitable for novice learning, Beijing carving
The softwar e is more professional.
UG, MasterCAM, and Powermill are recommended for processing such as molds,
fixtures, and parts. Four-axis stereo processing is recommended to use Powermill and
Beijing Engraving softwa re to make getting started easie
4. Tool selection
Commonly used tool classification for engraving machines: milling
cutters, engraving knives, drill bits, chamfering knives, ball knives, etc.
The tool usually consists of a shank and a blade. The shank is the part
that is clamped and has no cutting ability. The blade is the part with
cutting ability.

Engraving tools such as
engraving knives, milling
cutters, drill bits, etc.
(1) screw cleaning and lubrication
When the machine is in use, it is a good habit. It is necessary to do a cleaning work
for about one month. The screw, optical axis and bearing cleaning must work. You can use
a clean rag to manually wipe the optical axis of the screw. The part of the bearing that is
not cleaned can be cleaned with a small brush. After cleaning, the oil can be sprayed with
oil to the screw, the optical axis and the bearing, and then the machine can be moved back
and forth for a few times, such as above the screw. There is also dirt, re-clean with a rag,
repeat the lubric a ti on a nd cle an th e act i on u ntil th e scr ew is shi ny and oily .
(2)
spindle cleaning and maintenance
During the machining process, the spind le chuck, nut and screw parts are easy to enter
dust and rust. At this time, it is necessary to apply anti-rust oil to the spindle clamping part
to clean the rust of the screw; the chuck and nut are severely rusted. Replace the collet and
nut to ensure that the machine is concentric.
(3)electric control box cleaning
When the controller is used with the machine, sometimes it will enter a lot of dust.
When processing metal materials, it is necessary to clean the dust inside the control box to
prevent conduction and burn out the circuit. We can open the cover of the controller, use a
hair dryer, open the cold air stall, turn the control box upside down, clean the dust on the
circuit board, a nd c lea n i t, c lean i t w ith a small brush.
