Can a laser engraver cut wood?

A laser engraver can cut wood. The laser beam can vaporize and burn away wood material to create precise cuts and intricate designs.

Does the intensity of the laser depend on distance?

Even in vacuum a laser beam's intensity will get weaker and weaker the more distance it travels. This is due to diffraction, meaning the wave will diverge and "take more space", thus the energy flu...

Can an 80 watt laser cut metal?

80W laser can cut some metals, but not all metals can be cut, such as aluminum. In addition, whether the 80W laser can cut metal should also consider the metal thickness, laser type and other factors.

Can you laser engrave wood?

Woods such as balsa wood or poplar, require a lower laser power level and can be engraved and cut faster. Laser engraving produces a lighter contrast. Woods such as oak or cherry are examples of de...

How deep can laser engraving go on metal?

When it comes to deep engraving, the depth can easily reach a few millimeters into metals. This is in stark contrast with regular laser engraving, which is typically only a few microns deep. But re...

Can a laser engraver cut vinyl?

Lasers can process polyethylene, but it is not recommended to use lasers to cut vinyl, because the principle of laser processing is high-temperature combustion, which will produce harmful substance...
