4.7.1 Marking Parameters

Marking speed:
Definition: (Unit: mm/s). Refer to the oscillating speed of MirrorX and MirrorY in the scan head during laser marking.
Range of (1-20,000mm/s).
Initial value of 10,000mm/s.
Application Method: Pay attention to the relation between speed and the power and frequency during adjustment; the faster
the speed is, the higher the frequency is.
Parameter Feature: It directly influences the work efficiency. For bigger value, the marking time is shorter; for smaller value,
the marking time is longer.

Jump speed:
Definition: (Unit: mm/s). Refer to the oscillating speed of MirrorX and MirrorY in the scan head during jumping. Range of
(1-20,000mm/s).
Initial value of 10,000mm/s.
Application Method: It’s the jump speed between strokes when controlling marking characters or patterns; which is the
speed the mirror turns to the start point of the next character or the start point of stroke, after marking one character or
moving to the last stroke, during which, there is no laser.
Parameter Feature: This parameter shall be combined with “Mark Delay” and “Jump Delay” to properly adjust the first
stroke effect of marking characters.

Power:
Definition: (Unit: %). Refer to relative power of laser (actual power is subject to the energy of laser). Range of (1% -100%).
Initial value of 40%.
Parameter Feature: With other parameters remaining the same, the higher the power is, the greater the energy is, the darker
the marking effect is and the deeper the trace is.

Frequency:
Definition: (Unit: KHz). Refer to the number of pulse in unit time, i.e. the number of spot generated per second. Range of
(20KHz--500KHz).
Initial value of 20 KHz.
Application Method: The higher the frequency is, the more and dense the spots are arranged in the unit length. Proper spot
space is good for effect adjusting.
Parameter Feature: With other parameters remaining the same, the lower the frequency is, the higher the peak power is;
which has better direct gasification effect on materials. The laser effect reflected by high frequency is more close to the
average power, i.e. it reflects more heat effect.

Pulse Length: Refer to the duration of maintaining the laser power at a certain value.
Parameter Feature: Under equal frequency, the higher the setting value is, the lower the peak power is.

Laser on Delay:
Definition: (Unit: μs). For laser delay, refer to the laser on delay to wait until the mirror completes command. Range of
(-2,000-2,000μs).
Initial value of 30μs.
Application Method: When the mirror jumps to the starting position of next character or pattern from the current arrest point,
the mirror’s response to the position signal may be later than the moment the signal is sent out by the system, so the Laser
on Delay must be opened to wait until the mirror jumps to corresponding position and then send out laser. Thesettings are
20
 related to the response time of laser. Generally, the value is positive. However, when the laser response time of laser is
longer than the response time of mirror, the value shall be negative.
Proper laser on delay parameters can eliminate “overlapping point” or “tailing” at the beginning of marking. However, too
long laser on delay may cause lacking of stroke in the starting section.

Laser Off Delay:

Definition: (Unit: μs). For laser delay, refer to the laser off delay to wait until the mirror responds to the last position
command. Range of (-2,000-2,000μs).
Initial value of 200μs. If the selected mirror is fast enough or the marking speed is slow enough, the value can be smaller.
Application Method: As the laser’s response time to “laser off” is far shorter than the mirror’s response time to “final
position” command, the Laser off Delay must be closed to wait until the mirror approaches the response position. This
settings are related to the marking speed, which shall be matched with the setting marking speed. Proper laser off delay
parameters can eliminate misclosure at the end of marking. However, too long laser off delay may cause “overlapping point”
in the ending section.

Mark Delay:
Definition: (Unit: μs). Refer to pen writing delay, delay of mirror signal and
the delay from the last point of pen to the first point of jump.
Parameter Feature: Too short delay may cause “tailing” and slinging point
between the previous writing and the next writing; Too long delay may
seriously increase mark time, depending on the materials.
(Red arrows represents mark delay)

Jump Delay: Refer to the time delay for laser jumping between characters.
Parameter Feature: Too short delay may cause laser leakage and slinging point
between the previous writing and the next writing; Too long delay may
seriously increase mark time, depending on the materials.
Corner Delay:Definition: (Unit: μs). Refer to the time delay of mirror signal
at the character corner. (Range of 30-200).
(Red arrows represent jump delay)
Initial value of 150μs.

Application Method: Time delay required for character corner or arc line laser marking. If the time delay is not proper, there
may be burned black at the corner or arc line. The time delay required varies with the marking materials and marking speed.

Red arrows represent corner delay：

Parameter Feature: It mainly refers to the time delay at corner for controlling laser marking character or pattern.
Too long time delay may cause dark spot on the laser marking character or pattern at the corner or the color at corner is darker
than that of straight line. Too short time delay may cause a circular bead of laser marking character or pattern at the corner. The
time delay is related to the marking speed. The faster the marking is, the longer the corner delay is.
RBI time： Definition: (Unit: μs).,When the use of dot matrix font when the effective, characterize each point of the light

21
time. This parameter does not work when drawing a line font.

Let’s actually adjust these parameters:

Create a new marking file, add a fixed text “TEXT” with font of TXT.SHX, size of 50x11.8mm, and use arrows to simulate the
direction of laser marking.
Mark the text and observe the line at the beginning of each segment of the mark letter, there may be three cases as below:

1 2 3
Case 1: There is no laser on the line section of beginning end (red line is the line section without laser) as shown in the figure
below. It’s caused by too long laser on delay, so the laser on delay shall be shortened;
Case 2: There is “overlapping point” on the line section of beginning end as shown in the figure below, i.e. laser overlapping at
the beginning section. It’s caused by too short laser on delay, so the laser on delay shall be prolonged;
Case 3: The line is proper and there is no “overlapping point” as mentioned in Case 2, this is what we need and the laser on
delay is proper.

Adjust the laser off delay: similarly, mark the above text and observe the line at the end of each segment of the mark letter,
there may be three cases as below, which is similar to the beginning section:

1 2 3
Case 1: There is no laser on the line section of en (red line is the line section without laser) as shown in the figure below. It’s
caused by too short laser off delay, so the laser off delay shall be prolonged;
Case 2: There is “tailing” on the line section of end as shown in the figure below, i.e. laser overlapping at the end section.
It’s caused by too long laser off delay, so the laser off delay shall be shortened;
Case 3: The line is proper and there is no “tailing” as mentioned in Case 2, this is what we need and the laser off delay is
proper.

Because different manufacturers use different lasers and galaxies, performance is also different, there is a different code
material, and sometimes in any way to modify the opening delay and light delay, can not make the length of the line
segment is appropriate, and the line is not a straight line.there may be other cases as below:

1 2 3
Case 1: The beginning line is deformed, at this time; the jump delay shall be prolonged.
Case 2: The ending line is deformed, at this time; the jump delay shall be prolonged.

22
Case 3: the beginning and ending line are not deformed, so the two delay parameters are proper. With no deformation of
line, the lower the mark delay and jump delay, the better. Too long delay but normal line may cause the mark efficiency.

Adjust the corner delay:

Create a new marking file; add a fixed text “A4” with font of TXT.SHX, size of 24x12.7mm. Mark the text and observe the
corner of character, there may be three cases as below:

1 2 3
Case 1: As shown in the figure above, the graph with sharp angle required turns to arc angle. It’s caused by too short corner
delay, so the corner delay shall be prolonged.
Case 2: As shown in the figure above, the graph with sharp corner required turns to sharp angle but the top of right angle is
overlapped by laser. It’s caused by too long corner delay, so the corner delay shall be shortened.
Case 3: As shown in the figure above, the graph with sharp corner required turns to sharp angle, there is no top as
overlapping point. So the corner delay is proper.
After the above parameter settings, these parameters can be used for marking. It’s best not to modify the setting parameters,
as the marking effect will be influenced after modification. Adopt similar method to establish and save other marking
parameters. Thereafter, there is no need to modify parameters each time, just directly select the marking parameter required,
which can greatly reduce the repeated work and improve work efficiency.

4.7.2 Assembly line

Pipeline direction: select the line relative to the
laser image of the direction of the camera or
select the static code.
Use the encoder:If the production line installed
speed encoder should check this, use the
hardware automatically match the production line
speed. If the production line is not installed speed
encoder does not check this, directly in the right
side of the "simulation of the assembly line
speed" column fill in the production line speed
value.
Encoder wheel diameter: Speed measuring
encoder The diameter of the wheel.
Number of pulses per revolution: Number of
output pulses per rotation of the speed encoder.
Sampling time: The duration of each sampling
time at the encoder speed. Recommended values
are: 500-1000ms.
Simulation of the assembly line speed: If the
23
 production line is not installed speed encoder, in
the "simulation of the assembly line speed"
column fill in the production line speed value, the
system will be the production line as uniform
processing, the production process to accelerate
or slow down the speed should be modified
accordingly size.
When the encoder is not installed on the
pipeline, manually set the line speed.

4.7.3 Area

Area size: the size of the work area size, the

general set to the lens corresponding to the
actual maximum marking range
Such as: F = 160 lens range should be set to
120mm or so, F = 254 lens range should be set to
180mm or so.
Galvanometer 1 = X: The galvanometer output
signal 1 of the controller is used as the X axis of
the user coordinate system.
Galvanometer 2 = X: indicates the galvanometer
output signal 2 of the controller as the X axis of
the user coordinate system.
Correction:
Calibration of galvanometer signal line:
Create a new code file, add a fixed text, the text
content for the "TEXT" font for the TXT.SHX font,
size set
Set to 50x11.8mm, click on the "start Penma" -
"soft trigger" to see the direction of the font
code is correct. Correct for:

If the first case appears on the right, you should select the
galvanometer 2 = X
If there is a second case on the right, check the
reverse of galvanometer 1
If there is a third case on the right, check the
reverse of galvanometer 2

24
Penumbing size correction:

Create a new code file, import a square PLT file, modify the size of the lens "area size" of 70%

Pillow correction factor:

Set the four vertices of the rectangle to A, B, C, D,Respectively

Correction method:First look at the two vertical lines that is the AC line and BD line
is a straight line, if the first case on the right, then the X axis corresponding
to the galvanometer coefficient smaller; if the second case, the X-axis
corresponding The coefficient of the galvanometer is changed.

And then look at the two lines that AB line and CD line is a straight line, if
the first case on the right, then the Y axis corresponding to the galvanometer
coefficient smaller; if the second case, the Y-axis corresponding
The coefficient of the galvanometer is changed.

Incorrect correction factor:

Set the four vertices of the rectangle to A, B, C, D, and measure the
length of the dotted lines AD and BC

Correction method:
If the length of the AD line is greater than the length of the
BC line, the coefficient of the X axis corresponding to the
galvanometeris changed. If the second case occurs, the
coefficient of the X axis corresponding to the galvanometer is changed The.

If the length of the AD line is less than the length of

the BC line, the coefficient of the Y-axis corresponding
to the galvanometer is changed. If the second case occurs,
the coefficient of the corresponding Y-axis of the Y-axis is changed The.

Trapezoidal correction factor:

Set the four vertices of the rectangle to A, B, C, D, respectively

Correction method:
First, the length of the AB line and the CD line
is measured. If the length of the AB line is greater
than the length of the CD line, the coefficient of the
X axis corresponds to the galvanometer. In both cases,
the coefficient of the X axis corresponding to the galvanometer is changed.

25
And then measure the length of the two vertical lines,
that is, the AC line and the BD line. If the length
of the AC line is smaller than the length of the BD
line in the first case, the coefficient of the
corresponding Y-axis of the Y axis is smaller. In both cases,
the coefficient of the corresponding Y-axis of the Y-axis is changed.

Proportional correction factor:

Set the four vertices of the rectangle to A, B, C, D, respectively

Correction method:
First measure the length of the AB line or CD
line, if the measured value is less than the
set value, then the galvanometer 1
The coefficient is changed, and vice versa.
And then measure the length of the vertical line,
that is, AC line or BD line, if the measured value
is less than the set value, then the galvanometer 2 will change the coefficient, and vice versa.

Parameter import, export:

After the lens parameters have been corrected, the parameters can be exported so that they can be imported quickly.

4.7.4 Laser

CO2 laser

Pre-ionization: Some manufacturers CO2 laser

need this signal to work properly, such as the
United States SYNRAD company's laser
Pulse width: The pulse width of the
pre-ionization signal.
Pulse frequency: The pulse frequency of the
pre-ionization signal.
First pulse suppression: This function is to solve
the CO2 device in the code, the laser power is
too strong, in the beginning of the code when
the "first heavy" phenomenon.
Power limit: Some manufacturers CO2 laser
provides a given frequency duty cycle can not be
greater than a certain value, you can limit the
duty cycle. Such as: coherent company G100

26
 laser duty cycle can not be greater than
60%,then, we can enter here 60.

Frequency range setting: When using this type of

laser, it is used to set the minimum and
maximum frequency of the input in the
parameter.

When the IPG / DATALOGIC laser type is selected,

the setting window on the left side appears. This
laser type is compatible with Chong Xin, Ruike
and joint products such as DB25 core interface
type of laser.
MO signal: Normally the laser manufacturer
stipulates that the MO signal must be given 7ms
ahead of the gate signal. Therefore, in the
conventional case, the MO delay is set to 7ms,
and if necessary, the key is adjusted or adjusted,
and without affecting the printing effect, The
smaller the better. For some high-speed coding
situation, you can choose MO normally open.
Pipeline mode to light: for slow extrusion of the
pipe or cable, if found between the text and the
text has a laser engraved out of the line
connection, you can open the mode, as long as
you can cut off the light out of the line, Set the
smaller the better. And do not turn on this
function when high speed marking.
MOPA: Use this function when using the MOPA
laser and set the corresponding pulse width
value.

27
 When the device is equipped with UV lasers
should choose the type of UV lasers.
The PWM and GATE signals can be set to reverse
output (ie, low level light).

4.7.5Marking Mode
Trigger Level: Select high or low level of
external trigger input, both of which are edge
triggered (rising edge or falling edge trigger).
Probe Distance: It’s the distance between
external trigger sensor and the first character of
marking. Note: The distance between the external
trigger sensor and the marking position shall be
no more than 8 products. It’s recommended to
install the sensor out of the marking area but
within 2 products.
Optimize Coding Speed: It is recommended to
turn on Coding to improve the Coding Speed.
Optimization 1: the system automatically adjust
the direction of the code according to the
direction of the pipeline.
Optimization 2: Optimize the speed on the basis
of optimization 1. However, when the mode is
enabled, the adjustment object will not be
displayed on the product in the left and right
position of the view area.
Coding completion signal: Each pulse is
finished by OUT1 output a pulse signal, the
signal's highduration is determined by the signal
width value. Please set the value according to the
requirement of the high-duration duration of the
receiver of the signal. Do not set this value to be
greater than the marking time.

the U disk to “fonts” of Internal Storage.
Mongline Fonts are mainly SHX fonts, excluding
letter, figure and punctuation mark in Chinese
fonts; while excluding Chinese character in
English fonts.
The font with postfix “CSF” in mongline fonts is
special for this system, including Chinese,
English, figure and punctuation mark. The height
of Chinese and English fonts is the same.
TTF fonts are mainly double-line fonts.

Note: When selecting fonts, the fonts not

displayed in the preview box have no characters
required, so other fonts shall be applied;
otherwise, the working area may not display this
character.

Dot matrix fonts

39
 Date Code:
Date code is the information text
automatically accessed by the system during
marking. When the user selects the date code,
the text dialogue will automatically display the
parameter definition of date code.
The system provides various date formats,

so the user also can click solid

button with the letter to change the format and

click hollow button to add any

character in the Date Code.
Date Offset:
To mark expiry date, we may use “date offset”
with unit of “day”.

For example, the expiry date of a product is

180 days. So we need to fill in 180 in"Offset
value", otherwise, it may not display the date
required or the date may not normally change
with the system date.

Time Code:
The system provides various time
formats, so the user also can

click solid button with the letter

to change the format and click

hollow button to add any

character in the Time Code.
Period: Divide 24 hours into two periods
(AMand PM), in each period, the user can
customize a text. For example, change the right
period (AM) into “morning” and change the
right period (PM) into “afternoon”, so it
displays “morning” or “afternoon” after the
period is added.

40
 Serial Number:
Hexadecimal: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A,
B, C, D, E, F and letters will jump the step in
the form of 16 in 1.
Start value: The current first number of
marking.
Current value: Current number of
marking.
Final value: Max. number of marking.
Number of digits: Digit number of the
marking.
Step value: Increment of the “Current
value”. It may be negative, which means the
serial number is decreasing progressively.
When the increment of “Current value” is 1
and “Start value” is 0000, the next value will
be 1 plus the previous value, such as 0001,
0002, 0003……9997, 9998, 9999. When the
increment of “Current value” is 5, the “Start
value” is 0000, the serial number is 0000,
0005, 0010, 0015, 0020, 0025…and so on.
Marking time: The serial number can be
changed until the specified marking times are
reached. And the serial number can be changed
again until the specified marking times are
reached, being a circulation.
Loop: The serial number automatically
returns to the start value for marking operation
after specified marking times are reached. For
example, the “current value” is 9999 and the
“start value” is 0001; when the number is 9999,
the system will automatically return to 0001.
Leading Zeros: When the digit of “current value”
is less than the preset digit of “serial number”,
the system will automatically add corresponding
digit of “0” in the front to reach the same digit of
“serial number”. For example, when the “current
value” is 1, the digit is “5”, tick the Leading
Zeros, the number is “00001”, not tick the
Leading Zeros, the number is “1”.

Random Code:
The figure or capital and lowercase letter
generated randomly by the system shall be the
marking content.
41
 The format can be randomly arranged. “*”
represents figure, “@” represents lowercase
letter, and “#” represents capital letter. Letter and
figure represent the fixed letter or figure.
E.g.: “******” represents six random number
“******9” represents six random numbers and a
fixed number “9”.
“**##@@” represents the random code in the
format of “figure figure capital letter capital
letter lowercase letter lowercase letter”.
The format of common random security code:
****** ******
****** ******

Import from File:

The system reads content of text file with postfix
of “.txt” as the marking content.
The system reads file by “Line” as the one-time
marking content.

Text: Current marking content.

TXT File: Display the current file path and file
name imported
Current Line: The line number of the file with
current marking content
Increment value: Set the line interval of
reading.
Loop: After reading the text, repeat from the 1st
line.

Number of digits: 6 (Max. 6 digits)
Step value: 1 (progressive increase of 1 at once)
Number of marking: 1 (once for a serial
number)
Loop: Ticking means marking from “000001”
after “999999” is completed. No ticking means
to stop marking after “999999” is completed.
Leading zeros: Ticking means that “0” will be
supplemented for the value less than 6 digits. No
ticking means to show the actual digit of the
serial number.

61
 Tick both “Save to file” and “Time Stamp”.

To save the serial number with the random code

in the same file, there is no need to change the
save directory or file name. Not to save the serial
number with the random code in the same file,
