There are three methods to focus the laser beam: 
 
 

 

A

: 

Manual focusing 

 

 

 

 

B

: 

Focusing by software 

 
 

 

C

: 

Automatic focusing by means of light barriers (optional) 

 
 
 

To 

A

 

– Manual focusing: 

 

A1. 

Move  the  processing  head  over  the  material  by  means  of  the 
positioning keys X/Y 

 
A2. 

Hang  the  focus  tool  on  the  external  ring  of  the  working  head  so  that 
the focus tool can move unhindered. Move the working table upwards 
by  pressing  the  Z  positioning  key 

(1)

.  While  doing  this  carefully 

observe the focus tool. 

 

 

 

  
 
 

Before the focus tool reaches the work piece, move the working table 
upwards  only  very  slowly  and  step  by  step  by  briefly  tapping  the 
positioning key, until the tool tilts to the side. Now the lens is focused 
onto the surface of the material.
