How does laser engraving work?

Sculpfun laser engraving is used to personalize a product with a design or personal touch. Sports trophies engraved with the names of winners, pens or fountain pens with company logos, or machinery marked with serial and lot numbers – these are all common applications for the Sculpfun S10 laser engraver. The biggest advantage is that almost any design and different materials can be engraved using the laser.

Laser Engraving Principle

During the laser engraving process, the laser beam hits the material and exposes it to a large amount of heat. Depending on the exposure time, the color of the material changes and contrasts, or the material evaporates or burns. The resulting laser engraving is permanent and highly abrasion resistant.

Sculpfun S9 laser engraving is as simple as printing. First, create the design you want to engrave in graphic design software (CorelDraw!, Photoshop, AutoCAD, Illustrator, InkScape, etc.). Then use the print driver that comes with your computer to send the graphic to the laser machine.

By pressing a button, the material you select will be laser engraved or cut according to the saved settings. If desired, you can configure the advanced settings laser software. The type of process saved in the print driver will automatically optimize the desired graphics process, making your daily work easier.

Raster and Vector Engraving: Two Different Types of Laser Engraving

Raster engraving is the standard process for laser engraving. Here, the graphics formed from pixels are recorded row by row, point by point.

In vector engraving, on the other hand, the pattern consists of curves and lines that are drawn „one after the other“ and engraved simultaneously by the laser. Vector engraving is often called „slotting“.

For large area applications such as filled letters, images, stamps or wood carvings, lenticular engraving is the appropriate method. However, if you only need to engrave thin lines, vector engraving has its advantages and can be faster.
