Setting up my rotary roller rr2 in lb 1.7.01

The origin buttons in Lightburn determine placement of the graphic around the start point. If you use the center origin button in Lightburn and make a mark center of your cup, place the laser on that mark and it should be where you want it. Other options are If you know how far down from the top you want the top of your graphic then you can use the left center origin point or if you want to measure from the bottom to the edge, use the right center origin. As always, test on tape first.

This article should help you.

Hello Sir, i did nothing wrong and keep getting an Error Code 9

This is for doing regular cutting on flat surfaces

Funny thing is it want let me engrave my design, but if i do a material test, it works

Did you reenable homing after taking the rotary out? Did you turn off the rotarty?

Please post a screenshot of your entire Lightburn screen showing your project with the Cuts/Layers Panel and Laser Panel visible. A screenshot is better than a photo.

You’re dealing with a start from / origin issue. I need to see your Lightburn screen to help.

Im dealing with more than that, i had 50, 3 x 4 designs to cut out, i did 23 at speed of 700/ power of 100 Line, The fill was 25000 and power 100. Everything was going perfect, and it stop cutting after 23 pieces with code 9 then got it to go again but no fill or line would show up


Your project isn’t on your screen, so I have no idea what happened or why. It. could be that something was too close to the edge and the overscan caused an issue, IDK.


So you’re doing one at a time? Are you moving the position of each one between burns or are you moving the workpiece on the bed?

No, this is my original setup. U are welcome to video 847-456-9978. If u can

The outside box is 12 × 12 smaller than my print area 414mm x 440mm

I won’t be able to until at least 10 Eastern. We have dinner guests.

I think my laser is burnt out. No light function

U can call me if your not tired, after your company/ dinner

Its working, the machine talks in mm not inches. And a firmware update

Good evening, i had to reset software yesterday, i tried to do a cup with the design in the picture. It burned and stretched all out of shape. I sent a picture of the diameter of the rollers. U gave me a setting that worked on everything. Sorry for the screw up

I don’t remember what setting we ended up with but I can remind you how we got there. I think we started at 80 for rotation then I had you burn a known distance and see if it matched. Then adjusted the rotation until the file and burn matched. I like to use 100mm, but you had a 3x3 sticker that you were using.

Its was working, had to stop it. It was burning, do i decrease the power.
