  • Patent number: 11958130
    Abstract: A described method includes engraving, marking and/or inscribing a workpiece using a laser plotter. In a housing of the laser plotter, one, preferably more, in particular two laser sources in the form of lasers have an effect preferably alternating on the workpiece to be processed. The workpiece is laid in a defined manner on a processing table and a laser beam emitted from the beam source is transmitted to at least one focusing unit via deflection elements and the laser beam is diverted toward the workpiece and focused for processing. A sequence control adapted to the quality of the engraving is determined and/or carried out by a control unit and the focusing unit on the carriage is controlled corresponding to the defined parameters of the sequence control.

  • Publication number: 20180193946
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for engraving, marking and/or labelling a workpiece using a laser plotter, as well as a laser plotter in which at least one beam source in the form of a laser is provided in a housing of the laser plotter, into which the item to be machined is inserted. The workpiece is placed on a processing table, and a laser beam emitted by the beam source is sent via deflecting elements to at least one focusing unit, from which the laser beam is deflected in the direction of the workpiece and is focused for the processing. The control, in particular the position control of the laser beam to the workpiece, takes place via a software running on a control unit, so that the workpiece is processed line by line by movement of a sliding carriage.

  • Patent number: 9815143
    Abstract: A laser plotter, a device and a method for cutting of a graphic is disclosed. The method may comprise preparation or loading of a processing job with a graphic and identification features at a display; application of the recognition features and of the graphic to the workpiece; arrangement of the workpiece in a processing area of a laser plotter; acquisition or detection of identification features in order to determine the position and alignment of the applied graphic in the processing area; carrying out the processing after successful identification of the graphic; after the insertion of the workpiece, a laser-pointer is positioned on any selected identification feature, whereupon, a processing image represented on a display element, with the identification feature, is moved at the display element in such a way that a laser position displayed at the display element coincides with the identification feature.
