- If you have a substantial quantity of multi sided parts to laser mark, or if you find it necessary to regularly re position the part during marking, this video might save you a little time. There are a few ways to program a pause into a marking routine. The Multifilemark feature applies to me as I mark batches of 50-100 double sided anodized aluminum parts on a fixture (3 at a time). The layout for this marking is held in two separate files. With multifilemark, I'm able to load both EZD files for the front side AND the back side at the same time and mark them in sequence with a single flip rather than having to unload and reload the same parts.
In the course of playing with these features, I did notice my foot pedal isn't very good (I haven't ever bothered to use it prior to this point). It's far too sensitive and can trigger marking if it's merely nudged. I'll probably have to replace it for a few dollars on ebay.

Just got mine. I have to say that we all appreciate your excellent videos and the sharing of your insights. I can’t thank you enough. Well done buddy. Well done.
much needed information for an efficient work flow. thank you for this!
You are my favorite person right now!
Hi jeff,
Great information & u shown important setting.
can u guide for the settings how to mark 2 different markings multiple. Means if A & B will be 2 diff files. Selective marking with single footswitch?
Thank you so much this video is so useful I really appreciate it, sir is there a way to show the marking area each time you marking? 🙏🏻
Jeff,
If you have the ability or time for a rotary vid/ settings that would be awesome.
YOU ARE A ROCKSTAR!!! Thank you!!
Agree
Hello Jeffery,
First of all i really thank you for your videos.
I have a question at 6:40
I want to see marking area with “red light” before push the foot pedal between files.
Regards.
DO YOU HAVE ANY TIPS FOR 5HE FOLLOWING:
Let's say you have a file with multiple tiny hatches, and you are using the resort option so it stagger them when marking. If I use the loop option (example 5 passes), it will do the 5 passes on a tiny hatch before moving to the next hatch. The problem is that it heats up the piece too much. I need for EZCRASH to do one full pass (mark all the hatches), before it goes to the next loop.
Thanks!
Thanks, great info sir!
Hi, thanks a lot!
It's possible use two machines with ezcad board with same pc? I want mark allways same file, but not want use 2 PC... I heard about remark pin, will it work like a memory? I load file with pc, mark once, unplug usb and remark pin will mark last file many times I want?
Great way to do business cards. I was thinking to do one whole stack, front side, then change file, then do the back side
As usual another great and nice short video. :) Off topic, but since Ebay lasers normally don't come with all kinds of extra's, what eye protection are you wearing?
Here's what I have:
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VA7JOHW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I make a point of not looking at the workpiece while the laser is marking even though I'm wearing these.
Thank you for such a good educational video , could you pls help with marking rulers with Fibre laser ?
Yes, I need to mark a small scale for one of my own products so I'll be posting something on this soon.
Jeffery thanks for you videos - We have to engrave 4,500 painted bottles and have to do two passes, one to take of the paint and the second to polish it. Is there a way to automate this without having to change the setting on each bottle?
Sure you can do this a few different ways. The easiest would be to just set up a hatch 1 and hatch 2 using different pens and line spacing.
If you wanted more control over the timing of the passes, a more complicated way would be to duplicate the artwork and set it to overlap in the ezcad workspace then apply the appropriate settings to each object - then use i/o controls to cycle through the two objects in the object list just like I did in the video.
Hi dear
How can .ezd file convert/open to my coral draw software
Hi Jeffery, have you some about replace foot pedal for fiber sensor?
hi do you know if i can activate the rotary to tune in between each step for example mark, rotate 90degree, mark? hope that makes sense.
Did you figure this out? Im in the same boat as you.
Thanks! super usefull, mine I/O control (traffic light button) dont let me use port 15, it simply just can not be clicked, it is empty, can you help? my pedal is also on port 15
did u find a solution of your probleme, i have the same issue
Fantastic! I had no idea on how to do this. Do you have anything on using a rotary? I just added it to my 2-yr old system and upgraded to 2.14.x software.
Thanks! I didn't buy the rotary with my system.
great video thank you sir
Hi, is it possible to select four or more different files via I/O but not consecutively? Be able to be called with a binary number. Is it possible to implement this with the MultiFileMark function?
How to keep in loop ??in time lapse ?
I'm looking into buying a similar machine for marking objects that are 60*1200mm. What is your advice on size of the machine for my use? I mean, with these I/O options it would be possible to make a moving table or a conveyor and split the design into multiple objects and move the conveyor between each marking. But should I go for 100x100 or 200x200? Would you buy the same size and power again if you were to start from scratch? Thankful for any advice
The smaller your field, the more power you will have. If I were to buy again, I'd probably get a 30w with a 200mm and 100mm field lens and I would likely use the 200mm for the vast majority of my marking. I almost never really need depth, but it would be nice to have the 30w with a 100x100 combination just in case. That said, my 20w with 150mm field lens meets my needs and I've been satisfied with it.
@@jefferyj, thanks for your fast response, and thanks for your excellent videos on these lasers and the software. I had been wondering about whether I could hack this machine to control it externally but this video really showed that it is already made to be controlled by external inputs. I will go for 30W and 200 lens and a moving table for marking longer objects. Thanks!
Oh gosh! Something similar to this may solve my Low Memory, crashing and file clearing scenario. I have pretty finely detailed hatch file and once they reach 20mb or so, they’re unreliable. Where I need 4 sets of all three hatches, rotating the angle to assure cleanout, I can only run one at a time, manually adjusting the angle/degree. (Not by my computer right now.) I want to be able to run all four, ideally stacking them, but EZCad can’t handle it. Maybe four separate files run similar to this would work. I need it to run while I’m not sitting there for the hour of time. I’ll have to watch this again from a bigger screen to see how it can work without the need of a foot pedal. Thank you!
An hour of marking and 20mb? That's a pretty serious file. I haven't tried it with anything that large, but sounds like it should work in theory.
Hmmm... Darn. I don’t have a foot pedal connected. Ideally I want them to auto run one after another. Tried a couple things. Way tooo late,/early. Will look again tomorrow/today. Unless you know? And thanks for your help. As it stands this may still save me some time and hassle.
Would love to ask you some questions. Are you on any other social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.) so I could message you?
Have you ever tried engraving a circuit diagram, imported as a dxf from autocad? Cause ezcad does not recognize line thickness set in autocad. Would love to hear about it.
I haven't tried it, but if you can draw it with outlines rather than single lines, it should be able to be hatched in EzCad. I'm going to post a video shortly about doing something very similar with a standard table.
It won't, I've tried it so many times, you should try using Corel or Ai
Great Video Jeffery you have helped with a number of issues i have had thanks, on mine 8 to 15 don't work and my input is set to 8? I'm guessing there is a setting to turn this row on somewhere any idea why 1-7 work and 8-15 are all low and won't let me change state.
I have the same error as you, have you fixed it, help me
.......
@@djbinhmelody1731 Yes, click file, System parameter, IO Mask and turn on the ones you need
@@justincredible4406 wow,thank you very much
@@justincredible4406 can you give me link your facebook,please? i want to ask the I/O Controls? I can't operate it
hi, i have a cuestion, i need to engrave many rings outside, how can i program the data to make it at the same time, are bird rings, so i need to put many data in the same archive
If you mean jewelry rings, I suppose you could put all your rings on some kind of mandrel next to each other to mark them at once. Might be risky though....I'm not the best person to ask about rotary applications as I don't have the rotary attachment. Maybe ask your questions in this facebook group: facebook.com/groups/440091022989424/
friend, good day, a question, I want to start recording send a signal to start the vacuum cleaner or smoke extractor, at the end of recording send a signal to relay or port to turn off smoke extractor, a pulse to start or turn off a photo is the same, thanks in advance.
Join this facebook group: facebook.com/groups/440091022989424/ and look for a guy named Stanislav. He has posted one or two guides to using the I/O ports that you might find helpful.
@@jefferyj thanks, my friend.
Hello Jeffery
Can you also create an assembly line with these settings?
There is a setting you can enable for an assembly line. I haven't played with it at all but I believe it's called fly mark.
Great demo.
How could i use this for deep engraving on stainless steel? Multiple hatchforms and ad cleaning passes inbetween?
Thinking about engraving polymer frames an slides.
Maybe even use different depths inside one operation? Seen some wonderful artwork being done on YT.
Appreciate any tips.
You could use overlapping objects on the ezcad workspace, just set them up in the order you desire. It may be a little tedious to set up, but if you're doing a large quantity of the same item, these settings can be helpful.
Hi can you give show me how make colors on anodized aluminium
If you have a mopa fiber laser, you can do a solid black color on aluminum. If you have a laser like mine you can ablate the anodize layer.
Most of this video ( th-cam.com/video/UazT3HIriOI/w-d-xo.html ) was done on anodized aluminum. Just a white mark; have a look if you like.
My software only has (Current count). How to get (Mark count)
I’m finding your videos very informative thank you but can I ask if you do any training at all? I’m having no luck being in contact with my Chinese supplier and have no idea how to use the ezcad software 🤞🙏🙏🙏
Is there something in particular you're not sure how to do?
JefferyJ to be honest everything correctly. I had a lot of trouble with the settings which has taken them 1 month to correct (to respond) I’ve asked for training but to no reply 😩
Do you mean the parameters for your system, or do you mean regular power/speed/frequency settings?
Thank you Jefferyj I’ve emailed you
Thanku So Much
Hey Jeff, Nice Video! Btw, I am still confused about the I/O section. So basically you connected the pin 15 to a real foot pedal hardware?
I made this video in response to a question about how to mark multiple files without loading them manually. I cheated a little bit to make use of them with the foot pedal, but multi file mark is a much simpler solution. The I/O controls aren't really for this and I've never really used them. I believe they're for expanding the setup with external components like sensors, conveyors, cameras, etc.
@@jefferyj Ohhh Icic, because currently I plan to integrate this laser machine with robotic arm. So basically the robotic arm will feed the material. But I am not sure about the communication between them.
@@jefferyj True - Multi File Mark is quite useful when you have multiple inputs coming from various devices & you want to mark exactly that particular file. It is quite useful in Automobile Industry with variable Incremental Numbers to be marked depending upon Inputs received. So, if you need any further information or details, we can be in touch.
@@chickenz4604 Communication would be simpler through Relay Input & Output signals. We can be in touch if you need any further information.
@@devang1501 Hello, we have figured out the communication channel. I only use relay for the signal input from the foot pedal pin. For the signal output from control card, I connect it directly with the robot. Sure, how can I contact you?
File selection with IO possible
i cant select I9 till I15 even do my pedal is at 14
did you solve your probleme, i hve the same issue
can you give me link your facebook,please? i want to ask the I/O Controls? I can't operate it
good videos. can you stop slamming your mouse button and table? quite annoying.
