Multiple Passes
Speed, Power, Frequency and Focus are used in combination to produce the desired
mark on the material being used. Different materials require different combinations
and these combinations are listed in the tables later in this section.
Speed and Power are very closely related and making a change to one of them can
have the same effect as changing the other one. For instance, increasing the Power
can be as effective as lowering the Speed in producing a darker mark.
Frequency is less dependent on Speed and Power and can often be determined
independently of those two variables.
Focus can be used to affect the type of mark created. For example, when marking
steel in Raster mode, changing the focus is the most important variable in creating an
annealed mark.
Speed
Speed settings determine the travel speed of the carriage as it moves back and forth in
the X-axis (Raster Mode) and as it profile marks in Vector Mode and is adjustable in
1% increments. On most ferrous materials slower speeds will produce darker marks.
Speed settings are heavily dependent on the type of material being marked and the
