6.2 3D Tips
3D Mode is one of the functions of LaserPro laser engraver. Instead of traditional two
dimensional graphic processing, 3D Mode allows the naked eyes to visualize the curvatures of
the 3D effect. Although it is easy to produce 3D samples with LaserPro Engraver, production of
the 3D graphic can be a hassle for our users.
Principle for 3D production by laser
3D processing uses degrees of the gray level to adjust the output energy of the laser. Take the
figures below as an example. When the color of a certain block is set as 100% black, the laser
output energy for processing will be at 100%. The processing depth will be fairly deep. When
the gray level is set as 50% black, the laser output energy will be adjusted to a smaller value
accordingly so that the processing depth is not as deep.
By specifying the degrees of the gray level in this way, various energy output is achieved and
the 3D effects are produced.
By specifying various degrees of the gray level, various energy output is for processing.
Introduction to software for 3D graphic production
Many ways to produce 3D graphics are available. If you are familiar with or frequently use one
of the 3D software in the market, you may use it for the production of 3D graphics. After
completion, save the 3D images as one of the formats that is compatible with the Laser
Engraver (such as JPG or BMP) and let the machine begin the engraving. If you are not
familiar with any 3D software, some editing software specific for laser in the market also have
3D mode functionality, which could be a handy tool for you to produce 3D objects. Of course,
you may also use Photoshop or CorelDRAW, which you might be using on daily basis, for the
production of 3D objects. Ways to produce 3D graphics with these software are not the same.
In the following section, we will give you simple illustrations with respect to how these software
work.
Currently, quite few Laser Professional AP is available in the market. The users can not only
create all kinds of vector images with these AP but also convert these vector images into 3D
module, which is a great way to produce 3D graphics.
