The camera image looks soft and the edges are not crisp, so recognition is unstable. Galvo machines have an extremely shallow depth of field, and the material must sit exactly at the focal plane.
Troubleshooting Steps
- Raise or lower the Z axis until the material surface sits exactly at the focal position.
- Confirm sharpness on the camera preview — edges must be crisp, not soft or doubled.
- Verify focus on a piece of scrap material of the same height before placing the actual workpiece.
- Re-run auto-recognition and confirm the template score before starting the job.
