About the Laser
- What is a laser?
LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. A laser is a single color beam of light which is used in materials processing for supplying heat energy. The laser light beam, when focused, provides an intense source of power for cutting, engraving, marking etc. and is a popular key method in modern technology for the manufacture of a huge range of products. - What is the difference between a laser cutting and a laser engraving machine?
The lens focal length is shorter in the laser engraving machine to give a finer spot size when working on materials, and gives a higher quality when engraving items. The longer focal length lens on the laser cutting machines is more tolerant of focus height variations, and produces less taper in the cut edge. This is more relevant for cutting thicker materials, where a cutting lens would reduce the angle of laser cut sloped edges. - What materials can I cut or engrave with a CO2 laser?
