Chapter 4 Engraving
4-4 Cutter Installation Method 1 (With Nose Unit)
Important Notes When Using the Nose Unit
Amount of Height Displacement That Can Be Tracked
When automatic Z control is set to “ON,” then as long as the tip of the nose unit is in contact with the surface of the workpiece,
the cutting-in depth can be kept uniform even if the height of the material changes. However, there is an upper limit to the
amount of height displacement that can be tracked. Before you do the actual engraving, carry out an engraving test to make
sure the desired engraving can be accomplished.
(Trackable undulation height: gentle undulations of about 1 millimeter)
Limitations on Cutting
Care is needed when performing fill engraving (flat-drag cutting inside the contour lines of characters and shapes) overa
wide surface area. With fill engraving that is broader than the diameter of the nose unit, the nose unit may track the surface
that has already been cut and cut the surface further.
