Acrylic laser engraving machine seems to be simple, but you must pay attention to the following when operating
Acrylic/Plexiglass is the Most Commonly Used Engraving Cutting material after wood MDF. It is easy to be cut/cutting and carving/engraving. It has a variety of shapes and sizes and is relatively low cost.
It seems simple to operate the acrylic/Plexiglass Co2 Laser engraving/cutting machine, but you must pay attention to the following matters when operating
1.Acrylic purity: not all acrylic/ Plexiglass materials are the same in the market. When purchasing acrylic/Plexiglass, you must emphasize the purity of the acrylic, otherwise the phenomenon of melting may occur when you buy it back for carving/engraving or cutting.
2.Acrylic carving
Generally, acrylic is carved/carving/engraving on the back, that is, carved /engraving from the front and viewed from the back, which makes the finished product more three-dimensional.
When back carving/engraving, please first mirror the graphics, and the engraving speed should be fast and the power should be low. After engraving the file through the coreldraw software, use a laser engraving machine to engraving, that is, view from the front of the back engraving. The effect of this engraving process is extremely beautiful and natural
3.Acrylic cutting (Take 6mm acrylic/Plexiglass as an example)
1. The power is set to 65% -70%
The minimum power and the maximum power are set because the speed when cutting a straight line is faster than the speed at the corners. We said that the faster the speed, the shallower the cut. Therefore, in order to cut through the sample, we usually set the minimum power and maximum power.
2.Speed is set to 5mm / s
We all know that the faster the speed, the higher the processing efficiency, so we will increase the power as much as possible when cutting general materials, but the acrylic is different. Too fast speed will make the cut surface not smooth and uneven. Feel, so in order to cut out a smooth effect. We need to keep in mind when setting the parameters: increase the power and reduce the speed.
3.Blowing device during cutting
When cutting acrylic, many people will have the problem of whitening the cut surface. This is because he does not use air blowing during cutting, so in order to cut a smooth effect, turn on air blowing, and also remind everyone that during the laser processing process Be sure to have guards at your side during the cutting process. The material is easy to catch fire during the cutting process. If a fire is found, please turn off the machine in time.
4. When cutting acrylic, if you want to avoid the problem of edge fusion caused by the reflection of the honeycomb panel, we can use overhead cutting.
In summary, we know that when cutting 6mm acrylic, we may wish to set the power to 65% -70% and the speed to 5mm / s. At the same time, choose not to blow air during the cutting process, which can be used when appropriate Overhead cutting method is used to solve the reflection problem of the honeycomb panel; of course, but we want to cut the frosted effect, only a simple step is required, that is, blowing air, so the cut acrylic will have a kind of frosted Effect
4.General Tips for Acrylic Laser Processing
1) When processing acrylic materials, do not leave the machine unsupervised. Many materials are flammable, but it turns out that acrylic (in any form) is particularly flammable when cut with a laser. In general, if you are not on site, never use a laser machine to cut any material.
2) Make sure to choose the acrylic material that suits your application. Please note that acrylic cast plates are more suitable for engraving, while acrylic extruded plates are more suitable for laser cutting.
3) Use a pin stand or other support to lift the acrylic material to eliminate back reflections
5.How to transport the laser engraving machine,
We packaged laser machine with standard plywood box, with 3 layers packags, outside is strong internation plywood box, there have foam outside of laser engraving machine incase of shaking demage, also havve plastic water proof to protect machine, our shipping agent with many experience, and long time cooperation, we can get competitive price, also safety transport.
6.How to install and operate laser engraving for metal engraving work? how to start an laser machine? how to training?
