Laser engraving and cutting machines are powerful tools used in various industries for precise and intricate engraving, marking, and cutting on a wide range of materials. These machines use laser technology to etch designs, logos, patterns, or cut through materials with high precision.
Laser Engraving: 1. Principle: Laser engraving works by using a high-powered laser beam to remove the surface layer of the material, creating visible engravings or markings. 2. Materials: Various materials such as wood, glass, plastic, leather, metal, acrylic, and even some types of fabric can be engraved. 3. Applications: Customized gifts, personalization of products, signage, artwork, industrial part marking, and more. 4. Types: CO2 lasers are commonly used for organic materials, while fiber lasers are ideal for metals and plastics.
Laser Cutting: 1. Principle: Laser cutting employs a focused laser beam to cut through the material, leaving a high-quality edge. 2. Materials: Similar to engraving, laser cutters work on materials like wood, acrylic, leather, fabric, paper, and certain types of metal. 3. Applications: Manufacturing, prototyping, architectural models, signage, custom crafting, and industrial applications. 4. Types: CO2 and fiber lasers are used, with fiber lasers often preferred for metals due to their high cutting efficiency.
