1. Description

1.1. Product description

Raycus pulsed laser is an ideal high power laser source with high speed and high efficiency.
It is specially designed for industrial laser making system and other applications.
Compared with traditional lasers, pulsed laser has some unique advantages in increasing the
conversion efficiency of the pump light 10 times higher. Its low power consumption and
automotive design make it appropriate for operating both in and outside the lab. Besides, it is
exquisite and convenient for its independence in placement, free time in using and facility in
connecting to equipment directly.
The device can emit 1060~1085nm wavelength pulsed light under the control of industrial
laser’s standard interface driven by 24VDC power source.

1.3. Environmental requirements and cautions

Pulsed laser should be driven by 24VDC±1V power source.


1) Caution: Make sure the corresponding wires of the device are properly grounded.
2) All the maintenance to the device should only be done by Raycus, because there is no
replacement or accessory provided with the device. Please do not try to damage the labels or
open the cover in order to prevent against electric shock, or the warranty will be invalid.
3) The output head of the product is connected with an optical cable. Please be careful handling
the output head. Avoid dirt and any other contaminations. Please use the specialized lens
paper when cleaning the lens. Please lid the laser with protective cover of the light isolator to
be against dirt only when the laser is not installed in the device or not in working.
4) If the operating the device fails to follow this instruction, the protective function will be
weakened. Therefore, it should be used under normal conditions.
5) Do not install the collimating device into the output head when the laser device is in working.

6) The device has four cooling fans at the rear panel to dissipate heat. In order to guarantee
enough airflow to help giving heat off, there must be a space of at least 10 cm’s width for
airflow in front and rear side of the device. As the cooling fans are working at blow condition,
if laser is mounted in a cabinet with fans, the direction should be same as laser’s fans.
7) Do not look into the output head of the device directly. Please do wear appropriate laser
safety eyewear during the time when operating the device.
8) Make sure the pulse repetition rate higher than 20 kHz.
9) For the longest time without pulse is only 100 us. If there is no pulse output, please stop
marking at once, to avoid further damage of the device.
10) Power source sudden interruption will do great harm to the laser device. Please make sure
the power supply works continuously.

There are DB9 and DB25 interfaces at the rear of the laser. The DB9 is a RS232 interface
only used for debugging, no needs to connect. And DB25 is the joint interface connecting control
system with laser system, please make sure the connection is reliable before operation. Feet of
the DB25 are defined as follows in Fig. 5.

3) PIN 17 is the external 5V input, providing power supply for alarm signal; input current must
be > 20 mA.
4) External input signals (PIN 1-8, 18-20, 22) are all connected to the optical coupler inside the
system. External 17 pin 5V power supply should be connected to ensure the effective signal.
Caution: Before turning on PIN 19, PIN 18 must be switched on, or the laser may be
damaged. The signal of PIN 18 must be ahead of PIN 19 at least 5 ms.

5) I/O connection of digital signal: the supply current of input signals are less than 10mA, and
the supply current of output signals are less than 3 mA. The connection circuit of input and
output signals is shown in Figure 6.

Figure 6. Schematic of input and output signals.

6) The control board and laser driver can be powered separately. When there is failure in 24V
control board power supply, the laser will stop emission after 20 ms. When there is failure in
24V laser driver power supply, the laser will stop emission after 4 ms.

4. Operation Regulations

4.1 Pre-inspection

1) Make sure the device appearance is in good condition and the output fiber is neither
excessively bended nor broken.
2) Make sure signal line of laser and marking system are properly connected.
4.2 Operation procedures

1) Starting procedures
Please make sure the control system is on before you turn on the fiber laser. Only after at
least 1 minute since the power turned on, the subsequent operations can be preceded.
2) Frequency set introductions
For model P70Q, the frequency setting range is from 20 kHz to 100 kHz.
For model P100Q, the frequency setting range is from 20 kHz to 200 kHz.
3) Laser marking checking
For the device initial testing, first turn the power down to zero without turning on the
marking system after the device is successfully started. Then draw a quadrate, marking
continuously while slowly increasing the power from zero to 100% at the same time. Meanwhile,
use a ceramic material to observe the laser and the laser should become stronger, otherwise shut
down the device and check. If operating normally, the marking system can be used in common
order afterwards.
4.3 Cautions

1) Marking frequency must be in the range of 20~100 kHz for P70Q, 20~200 kHz for P100Q.
2) It should not modulate the frequency while marking.
3) Stop marking first before shutting down the device, then turn the power down to zero and cut
the power off.
