Manual de Instruções da Gravadora a Laser SCULPFUN S30 Pro

1. Informações de segurança

AVISO: Laser engravers produce a high-power laser beam that can cause severe injury, blindness, or fire if not used properly. Always follow these safety guidelines:

• Proteção para os olhos: Always wear certified laser safety goggles (OD 6+) when operating the machine. Never look directly at the laser beam.
• Risco de incêndio: Do not leave the machine running unattended. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Ensure proper ventilation to prevent smoke and fumes accumulation.
• Compatibilidade de materiais: Only engrave or cut materials approved for laser processing. Avoid highly reflective, flammable, or PVC-containing materials.
• Área de trabalho: Operate in a well-ventilated area. Keep the work area clear of flammable objects and debris.
• Crianças e animais de estimação: Keep children and pets away from the laser engraver during operation.
• Parada de emergência: Familiarize-se com a localização e o funcionamento do botão de parada de emergência.
• Fonte de energia: Use only the provided power adapter. Ensure the power supply is stable and grounded.

Figure 2.1: Fully assembled SCULPFUN S30 Pro Laser Engraver.

Principais características:

• 10W Ultra-thin Laser Output: Utilizes advanced laser shaping technology for a fine 0.08x0.06mm laser focus, enabling powerful and precise engraving and cutting. Capable of cutting 10mm Balsa wood or 6mm plywood in a single pass.
• Automatic Air Assist System: Equipped with a 32-bit motherboard and a full air assist kit, including a high-pressure air assist nozzle and a control-type air pump. This system intelligently controls air assist via LightBurn software (M8 button), switching it on for cutting and off for engraving, ensuring clean results without manual intervention.
• Área de gravação expansível: Innovative XY axis expandable design allows the original 370x360mm engraving area to be expanded to 900x370mm with a Y-axis expansion kit, or up to 900x890mm with an XY-axis expansion kit (kits sold separately) for large-scale projects.
• Industrial-grade Cutting Accuracy: Features a solid and high-precision linear slide rail X-axis, achieving industrial-grade engraving accuracy without the wavy patterns common in ordinary machines. The high-strength aluminum alloy frame ensures durability and stability.
• Replaceable Protective Lens: The laser module incorporates a replaceable lens design, significantly extending the laser's lifespan. A damaged or worn lens can be easily replaced to restore cutting power. An extra lens is included.
• Limit Switch Device: Includes an XY limit switch for homing and positioning functions, useful for repeated positioning tasks. Users can choose to install it based on their needs.

4. Configuração e montagem

Follow the steps below to assemble your SCULPFUN S30 Pro Laser Engraver. Refer to the video for visual guidance.

4.1 Montagem do quadro

1. Descompacte os componentes: Carefully remove all frame components from the packaging. Identify the left, front, and right beams.
2. Attach Corner Brackets: Secure the corner brackets to the frame beams using the provided screws. Ensure screws are tightened evenly to prevent misalignment.
3. Assemble Gantry and Back Beam: Connect the gantry (X-axis assembly) to the side beams and then attach the back beam.
4. Adjust Eccentric Nuts: The X-axis has eccentric nuts that control the tightness of the movement. Use a 10mm wrench to adjust these nuts. Turning the eccentric nut downwards loosens the axis, while turning it upwards tightens it. Adjust both sides to allow smooth movement without excessive looseness or sticking.

Figure 4.1.1: Initial frame assembly, showing the left, front, and right beams.

4.2 Instalação da Correia

1. Route the Belt: Carefully route the transmission belt around the pulleys on the X-axis and Y-axis.
2. Secure Belt Ends: Use the T-shaped nuts and screws to secure the ends of the belt. Ensure the belt is taut but not overly tight to allow smooth movement.

4.3 Limit Switch Installation (Optional)

The limit switches provide homing and precise positioning. Install them if needed for your workflow.

1. Attach Switches: Mount the limit switches to the designated positions on the frame using the provided screws.
2. Conectar a fiação: Connect the limit switch wires to the main control board. Ensure correct polarity and secure connections.

4.4 Laser Module and Air Assist Installation

1. Módulo de montagem do laser: Attach the laser module to the gantry. Secure it with the hand screws.
2. Connect Air Assist: Connect the air assist hose from the air pump to the laser module's nozzle. Secure the air pump near the main control board.
3. Gerenciamento de cabos: Use cable ties to neatly organize all wires and hoses, ensuring they do not interfere with the laser's movement. Avoid overtightening the air assist hose to prevent blockage.

5. Instruções de operação

The SCULPFUN S30 Pro is compatible with LightBurn software for controlling engraving and cutting operations. Ensure your software version is at least 1.0.0 to utilize all features, especially the automatic air assist.

5.1 Software Setup (LightBurn)

1. Dispositivo de conexão: Conecte a gravadora a laser ao seu computador via USB.
2. Adicionar dispositivo: In LightBurn, use the "Device Discovery Wizard" to find your SCULPFUN S30 Pro. If automatic discovery fails, manually add a GRBL device with the correct work area dimensions (e.g., 400x410mm for standard S30).
3. Enable Air Assist (M8): Go to "Device Settings" and ensure "Air Assist" is set to use the M8 mode. This allows LightBurn to control the air pump automatically.
4. Enable Limit Switches (Optional): If you installed limit switches, enable "Hard Limits" and "Homing Cycle" in "Machine Settings" within LightBurn. Remember to write these settings to the controller.

5.2 Focalizando o laser

O foco preciso é crucial para resultados ideais de gravação e corte.

1. Colocar material: Position your material on the honeycomb panel.
2. Use Focus Bar: Place the provided metal focus bar between the laser module and the material surface.
3. Adjust Laser Height: Loosen the thumb screws on the laser module and slide it up or down until the focus bar just touches the material surface. Tighten the thumb screws.

5.3 Gravação e Corte

1. Dimensionamento de carga: Import or create your design in LightBurn.
2. Definir parâmetros: Configure layer settings (speed, power, passes) for engraving and cutting. For cutting, enable air assist. For engraving, disable air assist to prevent blurring.
3. Préview Área de trabalho: Use the "Frame" function in LightBurn to preview the laser's path on your material. Adjust material position or design as needed.
4. Iniciar trabalho: Click "Start" to begin the engraving or cutting process. Monitor the machine closely during operation.
