PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Overview Input port
Use 2EDG3.81 pluggable connector.
- VCC (24V5A DC)
- GND
- TTL/PWM in (0-5kHz)
Air assistance port
Built-in air assist to get clean-cut edges and improve cutting performance.
Air pump suggestion:
- Air pressure and capacity: ≥ 0.027kPa, 27L/min
- Air tube: outer diameter 6mm and inner diameter ≥ 4mm
Working temperature display
The output power stability and life time of laser module has strong relationship with working temperature of laser diode. K30 built-in a thermistor at the highest temperature point near the laser diode, the operating temperature of the diode can be displayed on the digital tube in real-time. We suggest the working temperature of the laser module is controlled below 55° C and the working environmental temperature below 35°C to get good power stability and durability.
Over-temperature alarm switch
When the working temperature of the laser module is higher than 55° C, the buzzer will sound an alarm.
Working status indicator
Power indicator: it is red when power supply is connected. Signal indicator: it is green when signal is received.
Red cross line locating
Help you to place the material to the position correctly.
Driver adapter (Model: P-DA-01)
Sliding plate
Multiple holes bring you widely installation compatibility.

CONNECTION DESCRIPTION
Please check whether the laser module is compatible with your engraving machine before connection.
- A. Check the voltage parameter of you engraving machine. Please ensure your engraving machine can provide at least 24V SA power supply.
- B. Check the port of the main control board on your engraving machine. Please find the PWM port, GND port and VCC port on the main board of your engraving machine. Then connect this laser module to the main board accordingly.
“A” &”B”are both compatible.
Connect the laser module to the main board of your engraving machine directly.
Only voltage is not matched.
The voltage parameter of your machine are not matched to the module.
- Step 1: Connect the cable of your engraving machine to the corresponding input connector on P-DA-01.
- Step 2: Connect the cable of the laser module to the Output A connector on P-DA-01.
- Step 34: Connect the 24V power adapter to the DC Input connector on P-DA-01. Push the switch to the EXT position and the power is provided by external power adapter.
Only control board pin definition is not matched.
Situation 1: The definition of connector on the engraving machine main board is not pin-to-pin.
Please rearrange the wire sequence of the cable to make each wire is well matched with the pin definition on the engraving machine main board.
Situation 2: Please use P-DA-01 if the main board of your engraving machine is not 3-pin, such as 2-pin.
- Step 1: Connect the cable of the your engraving machine to the corresponding input connector on P-DA-01.
- Step 2: Connect the cable of the laser module to the Output A connector on P-DA-01.
FOCUS REFERENCE SETTINGS
The focal length of the K30 laser module is 40mm .
For cutting
Please make the focus locate lower than the cutting material surface according
to the following.
Reference settings for cutting
For engraving
Please make the focus locate on the engraving material surface.
Reference settings for engraving
For example, if you want to perform engraving, just make the focus on the engraving material surface and adjust the fixed focus lever to 0mm.
PRECAUTIONS
- Laser may cause damage to your skin. Please do not expose your skin directly to the laser.
- Please wear laser goggles to protect your eyes when you use this laser module.
- Please ensure that the air pump is turned on before you start cutting. If not, the smoke will contaminate the lens.
- This laser module doesn’t support hot plug, hot plug may cause damage to the laser module.
MAINTENANCE
- When the laser module is not used for a long time, please ensure that the lens is not polluted by dust.
- When you replace the air nozzle, please ensure that your operation will not pollut the lens. Fingerprints or dust on the lens will weaken the output power of the laser module, or even damage the lens.
- When you find the cutting ability decreases, the lens might be not clean. Please use a clean alcohol swab to clean it according to the following figure.
