Step 1: Place the Zippo

Put the Zippo on the laser bed. Since it is flat in the center, the card holder will be well suited for laser marking.

Step 2: Import laser marking file and check out

Load your design into LightBurn software, adjusting its size and position to fit your Zippo. Then make sure the laser marking parameters are set correctly.

Step 3: Don't miss the focus

Missing the focus is one of the biggest reasons for laser marking failure. So don’t forget to click the AF button for auto focus.

Of course, manual focus is also effective. Hang the focal stick at the correct position under the lens, and then carefully adjust the Z-axis height. When the end of the focal stick just touches the surface of the zippo, it is in focus!

Step 4: Ready to start laser marking

Press the frame button and check if the visual red light indicate the right area to be marked. The frame should be located in the middle of the Zippo. If not, move the pattern positions until they align.

After checking, close the laser door and begin Aurora Lite’s operation.

Step 5: Monitor the Zippo marking process​

Stay near the laser machine throughout operation to monitor for any unusual sounds or alarms. This door ensures safety during laser marking, as the energy is potent. Avoid looking directly at the laser beam, even with protective measures in place.
