How to adjust the depth of the laser engraving machine?

We are Redsail Technology specializing in the production of laser machines, which can carry out laser cutting, engraving, and marking. To carry out these functions there are some guidelines and tips for you.\

Adjusting the depth of a CO2 laser engraving machine will depend on the specific machine and its settings. However, here are some general steps that may help you adjust the depth:

Determine the appropriate depth for the material you are engraving: The ideal depth of the laser will depend on the type of material you are engraving. Consult the machine's user manual or the material manufacturer's instructions to determine the appropriate depth.

Adjust the laser power: The laser power is what controls the depth of the engraving. Increase or decrease the power until you achieve the desired depth. Be careful not to set the power too high, as this could damage the material.

Adjust the engraving speed: Slower engraving speeds will result in deeper engraving, while faster speeds will produce shallower marks. Experiment with different speeds to achieve the desired depth.

Adjust the focus: Make sure the laser is focused on the surface of the material. Adjust the focus by moving the laser up or down until the beam is focused on the material's surface.

Test the engraving: Test the engraving on a small section of the material before engraving the entire piece. This will allow you to adjust the settings if necessary.

Always follow our instructions when adjusting the depth of a laser engraving machine. Additionally, make sure to wear appropriate safety gear, such as eye protection and gloves, when operating the machine.
