Running Your First Job

We will now illustrate how to use your laser system to engrave on a piece of anodized aluminum from

start to nish. In this example, you will raster engrave a Test Card on a 2 by 3.5 inch (50.8 by 89 mm),

0.0195 inch (0.49 mm) thick piece of anodized aluminum.

Note: For this example we will be using CorelDRAW X3 and the CorelDRAW sample le provided on the

software CD. Install CorelDRAW, but do not start a new project.

Step 1 – Loading and Positioning the Material

Open the top door and position the piece of anodized aluminum (1) into the upper left corner of the

table, against the rulers.

Step 2 – Creating the Graphic

Using CorelDRAW, open the sample graphic le found on the software installation CD that came

with the VersaLASER system. The le is named ULSTest.cdr.
