Informazioni sulla sicurezza

Laser engravers use high-power lasers that can cause serious injury if not handled properly. Always observe the following safety precautions:

• Indossare occhiali protettivi: Indossare sempre gli occhiali di protezione laser forniti in dotazione quando la macchina è in funzione. Non guardare mai direttamente il raggio laser.
• Ventilazione: Utilizzare la macchina in un'area ben ventilata per dissipare i fumi e il fumo prodotti durante l'incisione o il taglio.
• Sicurezza antincendio: Tenere un estintore a portata di mano. Non lasciare la macchina incustodita durante il funzionamento, soprattutto quando si lavora con materiali infiammabili.
• Compatibilità dei materiali: Only engrave or cut materials known to be safe for laser processing. Avoid materials that produce toxic fumes or can catch fire easily.
• Arresto di emergenza: Familiarize yourself with the location of the emergency stop button (if present) or the power switch to quickly shut down the machine in an emergency.
• Bambini e animali domestici: Tenere bambini e animali domestici lontani dall'area operativa.

3.2 Preparazione del materiale

The ACMER S1 can engrave and cut over 100 types of materials. Common materials include:

• Legna
• Acrilico
• Pelle
• Sughero
• Roccia
• Bicchiere
• Carta

Prima di iniziare un lavoro:

1. Place your material flat on the working surface within the 130x130mm area.
2. Utilizzare clamps or tape to secure the material to prevent movement during operation.
3. Ensure the material is clean and free of debris.

3.4 Avvio di un lavoro di incisione/taglio

1. Load your design into the chosen software (LightBurn or LaserGRBL).
2. Set the appropriate power, speed, and passes for your material and desired effect. Consult material settings guides for recommendations.
3. Position the laser head to the desired starting point on your material.
4. Initiate the job from the software. Always monitor the process closely.

4. Manutenzione

Una manutenzione regolare garantisce la longevità e le prestazioni ottimali del tuo incisore laser ACMER S1.

4.1 Pulizia della lente laser

A dirty laser lens can significantly reduce engraving quality and laser power. Clean the lens regularly using a specialized lens cleaning solution and a lint-free cloth or cotton swab. Refer to the laser module's specific instructions for lens access.

4.2 Keeping the Working Area Clear

After each use, clear any debris, dust, or small material scraps from the working area and around the machine's rails and belts. Accumulation can hinder smooth movement and affect precision.

4.3 Cura generale

• Keep the machine in a dry, dust-free environment.
• Avoid exposing the machine to extreme temperatures.
• Controllare periodicamente tutte le viti e i collegamenti per accertarsi che siano ben saldi.
