How to Use the Pass Through on TITAN and TITAN Pro Series Machines

Preface

This article covers how to use the TITAN machine's pass through function.

Complete Guide

What is the Pass Through used for

The pass through allows for oversized objects to fit in the machine. Your Thunder TITAN has a front removable door and a rear removable slot.

The pass through will allow the material to hang outside the machine. Be sure to not run into the protruding material, especially while it is being processed.

Prepare the machine for Pass Through

1. Identify and Remove the Pass Through Panels
   If you are using the passthough for the engraving and cutting, you will need to remove the panels, set the proper Honeycomb position and Focus the laser head.
   
   Front: 
   Locate the Front Pass through on your machine.
   
   Front Panel Removal: 
   Push outward with your hand to open the Front Pass through.
    
   Rear Panel:

If you do not need to push the material through the rear pass-through, you can leave it installed.

     Remove the screws Holding the rear pass through with a 2.5mm Allen wrench. Remove and store.

2. Honeycomb table position:

    For thin materials, place them flat on the honeycomb table and secure them with magnets/fixed tools.
    
   For longer or thicker materials, place them flat on the honeycomb table as well, and use stands
   for support if necessary.

Safety and Exhaust Considerations

During machine operation with panels removed, the door interlock may need to be temporarily bypassed, which can expose users to hazardous laser radiation.
Exercise extreme caution and ensure appropriate protective measures are in place.

Note: This procedure is performed at the user’s own risk. The manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage, injury, or loss resulting from improper operation or failure to follow safety guidelines.

SAFETY INFO: Class 4 C02 Laser Radiation, PPE, & Fire Suppression
The exhaust may react a little differently and there will be more openings for residual smoke and smells to escape into the room. It is advised to only run with the pass-through panels removed when it is necessary.

Using pass through for material processing

The pass-through door height is 70 mm. It supports materials with a maximum thickness of 65 mm.

This design greatly improves flexibility for handling oversized or extra-long workpieces, especially useful in signage, packaging, and panel processing applications.

1. Place the material flat on the honeycomb table and secure it. If needed, use some tools like shelves in front and back of the machine to hold the long material sheet and make it flat.
2. Download the designed processing file to the machine. Move the laser head above the material to set the "Origin". And then press "AF" on the touch panel to focus on the material, select "Frame". 
   
   

   

   Note: If you need to process thicker materials using the pass-through door, you can remove the silicone rings and push the lens tube to the highest position.
   This allows proper focusing during thick material processing.
    
3. Press "Start" to begin the job.
