2-5 Start Engraving – FLUX Help Center

Instruction for installing different modules

1. Focusing

Place the material inside the machine and move the laser head above the material. Then, click the focus button on the left side of the machine twice or long-press the "AF" button on the machine panel until the laser head starts moving. When the laser head touches the material and moves upward, the focusing is complete. Ensure that the focus distance is correct before each engraving.

⚠️ During machine cutting, the laser beam may burn through the workpiece and come into contact with the tin foil at the bottom of the machine. It is recommended to refer to this article and utilize a triangular prism to elevate the materials to prevent scorching incidents. The primary function of the tin foil is to protect the underlying casing from laser damage; if damaged, it will not affect normal usage.

a. Long-press the "AF" button on the machine panel:

b. Double-click the focus button on the left side of the machine:
