This guide provides easy steps to use the L-shaped positioner with your LaserPecker LP2 Plus to achieve batch material engraving.

The Usage of L-shaped Positioners

  • Install the L-shaped positioners: 

    Align the groove on the bottom of the L-shaped positioner with the slats of the Base Plate, then press down to secure it.

  • Remove the L-shaped positioners: 

    Hold the base plate steady with one hand. With the other hand, grip the L-shaped positioner and slide it horizontally along the grooves of the Base Plate to remove it. When one slot of the L-shaped positioner is beyond the Base Plate, lift it upward to remove it from the Base Plate.

Material Preparation

Before engraving, prepare the required engraving materials and the L-shaped positioner. Make sure that all materials are identical in material, size, and thickness. Otherwise, deviations may occur in the engraving pattern’s effect and position.

Step 5. Batch Engraving with the App & L-shaped Positioner

  • After engraving is complete, remove the finished material and place a new piece to the base plate, aligning it properly. Make sure the material fits firmly against the L-shaped positioner to prevent shifting.
  • In LDS, tap the "Repeat" button. The software will retain the previous engraving parameters, so no changes are required.
