You must now focus on the glass. Power
ON
the laser system and wait for the display to show
“READY”. Press the “Z” button on the control panel and notice that the motion system will align to the
centerline of the Rotary Fixture automatically. You will also notice that the left and right arrow buttons
will cause the focus carriage to move left and right respectively. This control is the same as when
engraving a flat object on the table. However, the up arrow now causes the fixture to rotate the glass
towards the front of the machine and the down arrow causes it to rotate towards the rear of the
machine. What the Rotary Fixture actually does is remove the normal up and down Y-axis movement
and replace it with a rotational movement. So instead of the system engraving down the flat page of
a graphic, it takes that flat graphic and wraps it around the cylindrical object. Now, using the Focus
Tool method, focus on the glass. After focusing is complete, press the “Z” button again and the arm
will move back into its home position.
•
If engraving a tapered object (1), the Rotary Fixture can be rotated to maintain proper focus. To do
this, lift up the left end of the fixture and place some sort of spacer underneath the fixture (2) to prop it
up. Slide the spacer left and right until the surface of the object is parallel (3) to the Focus Carriage.
Be careful not to raise the Rotary Fixture
too high (4), otherwise parts of it might
interfere with the Focus Carriage (5).
NOTE:
If you operate the fixture in this
manner, you might need to taper your
graphic in your software so that it
matches the taper angle of your object.
Otherwise, your graphic might appear to
be tapered when it is engraved.

Determining Graphic Placement
We now need to determine where we want the engraving to appear on the glass. You can use the top
ruler as a visual aid in referencing the engraving area of the glass or you can use the Red Diode Laser
and the X-Y coordinate system to precisely place the graphic in your graphics program. To be more
precise, we will use the Red Diode Laser Pointer.
To activate the Red Diode Laser Pointer, press the X-Y button while either in the “READY”, “MAIN”, or
“FILE DISPLAY” menu. The following submenu will appear:
Using the Motion Control buttons, position the Focus
Carriage above the glass and observe the Red
Diode Lasers position. Stop movement where you
would like the top of the graphic (the right dotted line
in the engraving area) to begin. Look at the
coordinate display and read the “POS” “X” position.
Retain this number in memory or write it down.
Ignore the “Y” position. Now, position the red dot at
the lowest point (the left dotted line in the engraving
area) on the glass where you would like the
engraving to end. Remember this “POS” “X”
coordinate or write it down.
