Building the logic that runs
the assembly line.

Operating a continuous auto-streamline conveyor involves strict adherence to optical enclosure thresholds and hand-clearance zones:

• Enclosure Shield Height (≤ 5 mm): Pull down the protective enclosure until it rests no more than 5 mm above the material before running Doc: P.09-10 Quick Start Guide: P. 09 & 10"Pull down the protective enclosure until it remains no more than 5 mm above the material before processing." .
• E-Stop Unobstructed Reach: Maintain unobstructed physical line-of-sight and immediate reach to the F1 Ultra red emergency stop mushroom button at all times.
• Active Processing Zone Safety: When placing materials during processing, keep hands away from the central laser processing area to avoid skin injuries Doc: P.09 Quick Start Guide: P. 09"When placing materials during processing, keep your hand away from the processing area to avoid skin injuries." .
• Substrate Boundary Rule: Ensure all workpieces are identical and strictly do not touch or overlap with each other on the belt surface Doc: P.09 Quick Start Guide: P. 09"Ensure that you use identical materials... Ensure that the materials do not touch or overlap with each other." .

The F1 Ultra utilizes a dedicated fastening kit distinct from the F2 Ultra Doc: P.01 Quick Start Guide: P. 01"xTool F1 Ultra fastening kit: Fastening piece A, Fastening piece B, Screw M4*10, Screwdriver 3 mm." . Follow the 4-step mechanical docking sequence:

Synchronize stepper motor index pulses with xTool Creative Space (XCS) to control workpiece progression:

1. Connect F1 Ultra via USB-C or local Wi-Fi and verify the device dashboard indicates Connected.
2. Open Device Settings (Gear Icon) adjacent to the F1 Ultra device card in XCS.
3. Under Working Mode, switch from Regular Surface to Conveyor (select Auto-Stream or Long Material).
4. Verify software feed vector orientation arrows match the physical conveyor flow (right-to-left material progression).

Calibrate hardware-to-software feed ratios to eliminate dimensional compression along the conveyor indexing axis:

1. Place flat test material onto the belt and focus using the automated dual-dot optical focus routine.
2. Navigate to Settings → Accessory → Conveyor → Step Calibration. Burn the standard 100.00 mm calibration marks.
3. Measure the center-to-center distance using digital vernier calipers. Enter the observed value into XCS to auto-adjust the stepper scale.

The Auto Streamline™ Conveyor executes both discrete batch arrays and oversized continuous pass-through jobs:

• Batch Staging: Scatter identical blanks on the belt without contact or overlap Doc: P.09 Quick Start Guide: P. 09"Ensure that you use identical materials... Ensure that the materials do not touch or overlap with each other." .
• Smart-Fill Matching: Position artwork on master part; click Smart Fill to duplicate across all detected blanks automatically.
• Large Materials (≤ 500 mm) Central Line Rule: When processing large materials up to 500 mm, laser beams are directed solely onto the conveyor central line. Any portion of material to the left of this line will not be processed Doc: P.10 Quick Start Guide: P. 10"When processing large materials, the device directs laser beams solely onto the central line of the conveyor... any portion to the left of this central line will not be processed." .
• Continuous Processing: Click Process → Start to execute marking, auto-indexing, and continuous part ejection.
