[MAGIC-L3] Calibration

※The machine is initially set up at the factory. Please contact your reseller first before making any changes to the settings of the machine.
※ Calibrate the machine in the following order: Laser focus calibration – Guide laser calibration – Focus pointer –Correction – Rotary origin calibration (if in use) – Camera.
※ A separate program for Setup Machine is provided. Run the program first to calibrate the machine.
※Use appropriate material for calibration. The machine’s warranty service does not cover mishandling of the machine resulting in damage or failure.

※ Use a black anodized aluminum material.

1. Use camera view

Select the checkbox (on the top right corner) to display Camera Viewer.
Use Camera Viewer to accurately check and calibrate each setting.

2. Laser focus calibration

Match the laser focus to the height of the material to increase accuracy when marking.
There are four stages involved when calibrating the laser focus.
On each stage, the head moves according to the distance specified in the previous stage and the movement interval shortens.

How to calibrate laser focus

Place the material on the work area.

Click Laser Focus.

Read the notification displayed on the screen then click Next. Read the instructions that will appear on the screen then enter the height of the material.

Be sure to read the warning notice first before clicking Start.

The numbers and circles are engraved on the material with a laser.
Numbers 01~10 are engraved, and the numbers may vary depending on the laser focus.

In Setup Machine window, enter the median number among the engraved numbers then click OK.
For example, if the engraved numbers are 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10 enter the median number ‘05’ (or the number in the middle) then click OK.

Repeat step 5 and step 6 four times to complete laser focus calibration with optimized option.

3. Guide laser calibration

Calibrate the size and position of a guide laser.

How to calibrate guide laser

Place the material on the work area.

Click Guide Laser.

Read the notification then click Next.

Select the size of the rectangle then enter the height of the material (to mark a rectangle). Click Apply to set the height then click Mark. Once Mark button is clicked, the machine cover automatically closes and the rectangle is marked on the material.

*A 20mm rectangle is marked on the material at a 0.5mm height.

Once the guide laser appears at the end of marking, adjust the offset values, width and height to fit in the rectangle in 2. Parameter Setting then click Apply.

※Select Laser Option in the Guide Laser Calibration window to adjust the laser options.

Advanced Guide Laser

In Setup Machine window, click Other.

Speed	Sets the guide laser speed
Enable Auto Speed Adjustment	Automatically adjusts the guide laser speed according to the size of the object to be marked when selected.
Enable Fine Adjustment	Automatically moves to the guide laser focus position (when checking the marking area) to enable precise marking area position when selected. ✽[Advanced Guide Laser] menu is added to the [Setup Machine] window when [Enable Fine Adjustment] function is selected and/or activated. ✽[Advanced Guide Laser] is required for calibration, and the calibration method similar to guide laser calibration method.

Set the position of the head laser pointer and V laser pointer.

L-wrench
(2,3mm)

1EA

For setting the focus pointer

Select Focus Pointer in the Machine Settings.

Position the head laser to the center of the work area. Use the direction key buttons to position it to the center. Then, click Next.

Place the flat material on the work area and enter the thickness. Then, click Next.

P Click ▶ button on the right to proceed in sequential order. ※Use a 2,3mm wrench.
Take note that the setting process involves 4 steps. Be sure to proceed with both left and right pointers in the same process.

5. Rotary origin

Calibrate rotary origin if rotary clamp is in use.

How to calibrate rotary clamp origin

Place and secure the rotary clamp to the work area.

Click Rotary Origin.

If rotary clamp auto tilting function is enabled, first, set the tilting origin to 0 degree.

How to set the tilting origin to 0

Match the clamp angle with the cross mark on the clamp body (as shown above).
Click up/down button to adjust the angle by 0.1 degree.
Once the angle is positioned to 0 degree, click Next.

Setting tool

1EA

Tool for rotary origin setting.

Insert the setting tool into the rotary (as shown below).

Match the tip of the tool to the laser pointer. Use the direction key buttons to position the laser pointer to tip of the tool. Then, click Next.
Or, on the machine, use buttons then long-press button (for more than 1 second).

Remove the setting tool then insert the ring into the finger chuck (as shown below). Use both finger chuck handle to tighten the clamp and secure the ring.

Then, move to the next step. Enter the size of the ring.

Move the H pointer to the center of the ring by using the direction key buttons. Then, click Complete.

How to calibrate bangle clamp origin

Place and secure the bangle clamp to the work area.

Click Rotary Origin.

If bangle clamp auto tilting function is enabled, first, set the tilting origin to 0 degree.

Match the clamp angle with the cross mark on the clamp body (as shown above).
Click up/down button to adjust the angle by 0.1 degree.
Once the angle is positioned to 0 degree, click Next.

※Unlike the rotary clamp, adjusting the left-right position saves the setting permanently, even after restarting the program.

6. Correction

The father the laser moves away from the center, the greater the distortion occurs.
When the laser passes through the lens after passing through the scan head, the farther it moves, the more distorted the shapes become (see figure on the left).
To correct distortion, correction process is used (see figure on the right).

How to calibrate correction

Use a material larger than (110x110 mm). Preferably, with a size of (120x120 mm).

Click Correction.

Read the notification on calibration process. Click Next to start calibration.

Enter the height of the material then click Apply. Click Mark to start marking.

Measure the coordinate values in each corner. Enter the sizes then click Complete to finish calibration.

Be sure to measure the size from each corner (as shown below).
