contents Given $λ\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\textbf{v}\in\mathbb{L}^3$, a $λ$-translator with velocity $\textbf{v}$ is an immersed surface in $\mathbb{L}^3$ whose mean curvature satisfies $H=\langle N,\textbf{v}\rangle+λ$, where $N$ is a unit normal vector field. When $λ=0$, we fall into the class of translating solitons of the mean curvature flow. In this paper we study $λ$-translators in $\mathbb{L}^3$ that are invariant under a 1-parameter group of translations and rotations. The former are cylindrical surfaces and explicit parametrizations are found, distinguishing on the causality of both the ruling direction and the $λ$-translators. In the case of rotational $λ$-translators we distinguish between spacelike and timelike rotations and exhibit the qualitative properties of rotational $λ$-translators by analyzing the non-linear autonomous system fulfilled by the coordinate functions of the generating curves.
