The minimum threshold is 10%. The laser will not be emitted at any setting lower
than this setting. It is not recommended to use the laser tube at full load, especially
for long periods of time. The recommended maximum power is set at 70%, as
prolonged use of more than this amount will shorten the lifetime of the laser. To
increase the engraving depth, increase the energy per unit area by increasing the
laser's power or number of rings or slowing down the speed parameter. However,
engraving too deep can degrade the image quality, especially for the coating
material.
When working with new materials, keep in mind that you should always start at the
low end of your possible settings. If the effect is not strong enough, it can always be
more than once Rerun the design loop, or rerun it with more powerful settings until
you create the desired effect.
The resolution should generally be set to 500 dots per inch. In some cases, lowering
the image resolution may help, reducing burn and Increase the energy of the pulses
and thus improve the quality of the images produced in certain materials, such as
certain plastics.
Step 9. Open the laser tube by inserting and turning the laser key. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, try touching the engraver with only one hand at a time once
the laser tube is opened.
Step 10. Press run to pause to engrave your design. Similarly, even if you are
wearing protective glasses, do not stare at the active laser continuously. However,
be aware of possible issues such as sparks or fires, and be prepared to ex-tinguish
fires quickly if necessary.
Step 11. Once the laser stops, check the quality of the first run and adjust the laser
parameters in the control panel or software as needed to produce the desired
effect. During repeated engraving and cutting, check the pump's tank regularly to
keep the water temperature below 100° F (38° C). If this temperature is reached,
stop working and allow the engraver to cool down before further use.
