First, manually return to the origin
If your laser cutter does not have an automatic return to the origin function or the sensor fails, you can try to manually return to the origin. The steps to manually return to the origin are as follows:
1. First move the cutting head to the lower left corner or the back left corner, which is the starting position of the origin.
2. Press the Return to Origin button on the controller panel.
3. Manually adjust the longitudinal, transverse and height so that the cutting head is accurately aligned with the origin position of the X, Y and Z axes.
4. Set the origin parameters of the cutting head on the debugging screen of the electric cabinet or other function keys to manually return to the origin.
Second. Use the official return to origin procedure
If your laser cutting machine is self-return to the origin function, you can use the official return to the origin program to return the cutting head to the origin. The specific steps are as follows:
1. Open the control software delivered with the laser cutting machine.
2. Click Back to the origin button in the software and wait for the machine to automatically return to the origin.
3. After the cutting head returns to the origin, determine the cutting starting point on the top of the machine and start a new cutting task.
Third. Calibrate the sensor
If your laser cutting machine automatic return to the origin function fails, it may be because there is a problem with the sensor. You can try to calibrate the sensor to return it to normal working condition, the steps are as follows:
1. Locate the origin sensor on the cutting head and check its connection status.
2. Download and install the official calibration tool.
3. Open the calibration tool and calibrate the sensor as instructed.
4. After the calibration is completed, re-run the laser cutting machine back to the origin procedure to ensure that the sensor has returned to normal.
In short, if you want to bring the laser cutting machine back to the origin, you can manually return to the origin, use the official return to the origin program, or calibrate the sensor and other different methods. No matter which method you use, you need to strictly follow the operating steps to ensure the accuracy and safety of the laser cutting machine.
