Step 2: Import laser etching Easter file and check out

Load your design into LightBurn software, adjusting its size and position to fit your ceramic mugs. Then make sure the laser etching parameters are set correctly. And the parameters of the rotary axis should also be set appropriately.

Step 3: Don't miss the focus

Missing the focus is one of the biggest reasons for laser etching failure. So don’t forget to click the AF button for auto focus. Of course, manual focus is also effective.

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 mug, it is in focus!

Step 4: Ready to start laser etching

Press the frame button and check if the visual red light indicate the right area to be etched. The frame should be located in the middle of the mug. 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 laser etching of ceramic mug

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