Question 1

When choosing a laser engraver, how should I select the wattage? Is higher always better?

Accepted Answer

Generally speaking, it all depends on your specific use case. Low-power laser provides a finer laser spot - suitable for detailed engraving, while high-power laser provides a larger laser spot - ideal for cutting thicker materials!

Question 2

What should I pay attention to when engraving reflective materials like metal, ceramic, and transparent acrylic?

Accepted Answer

First, blacken its surface. The coating can better absorb the laser, helping to achieve a more noticeable engraving effect. Absolutely, recommended you purchase the "1.2W infrared laser module", which is very suitable for engraving metal and plastic.
