Load your design into LightBurn software, adjusting its size and position to fit your candy box. Then make sure the laser marking parameters are set correctly.

Don't Miss the Focus

Missing the focus is one of the biggest reasons for laser marking failure. So don’t forget to click the AF button for auto focus.

Of course, manual focus is also effective. Hang the focal stick at the correct position under the lens, and then carefully adjust the Z-axis height. When the end of the focal stick just touches the surface of the candy box, it is in focus!
