LONGER How to: Prevent Vibration When Using Chucks with the Longer Nano Pro 12W

ABSTRACT

When engraving curved surfaces with the Longer Nano series, including the Nano Pro 12W, chucks are used to secure cylindrical objects for rotational engraving. If the chuck is not properly adjusted, vibrations may occur during engraving, which can distort the design. This guide provides essential steps for avoiding vibrations when using chucks on the Nano Pro 12W.

1) Control Clamping Pressure
  Ensure the clamping pressure is moderate when using chucks to grip the material. Excessive clamping can damage the material or deform the chuck, affecting the engraving process. On the other hand, if the grip is too loose, the material might shift or rotate unexpectedly, compromising engraving precision and quality. The grip should allow you to manually rotate the chuck while maintaining firm control over the material.

 

2) Avoid Excessive Depth in Clamping
  Avoid clamping the material too deeply inside the chuck. Clamping too far inwards can destabilize the axis of rotation, which may result in distorted images on the engraved surface.

3) Level Adjustment 
  Place a spirit level on top of the material to ensure it is horizontally aligned. By adjusting the height of the stand until the bubble in the level is centered, you can maintain a horizontal position for the material, reducing the risk of image distortion due to tilting.

4) Align the Support Rollers
  The material should be positioned precisely in the center of the support rollers. This ensures that each part of the material receives even pressure during rotation, preventing uneven engraving caused by off-center placement.

The Longer Nano Pro 12W incorporates advanced precision in its design, making it highly suitable for handling intricate cylindrical engravings, especially with these adjustments to prevent vibration. Following these steps can help achieve consistent, high-quality engraving results on the Nano Pro 12W, enhancing both the accuracy and aesthetic of the final output.
