Q: What materials can be marked with a desktop laser marking machine?
A: Common materials include metals (such as stainless steel, aluminum, copper, iron), plastics (ABS, PVC), leather, ceramics, and some non-metallic coated surfaces. Different laser types (such as fiber, CO2, UV) are suitable for different materials.
Q: Will laser marking machines be harmful to the human body?
A: It is basically safe when used reasonably, equipped with a protective cover and wearing protective glasses. Lasers are high-energy beams. It is strictly forbidden to look directly at the laser beam or open the protective cover to operate.
Q: Can the marking depth or color be adjusted?
A: Yes. Different depths and color effects can be achieved by adjusting parameters such as laser power, frequency, speed, and filling spacing (especially in black and white metal marking).
Q: How long is the life of the laser?
A:The life of a fiber laser is generally 100,000 hours; the life of a CO2 glass tube is about 2,000–8,000 hours. The specific lifespan depends on the brand, frequency of use and maintenance.
Q: Do I need to install a software?
A: Yes. We will send you a USB flash drive with the machine - including the required installation software (such as EZCAD, etc.) and the laser control card driver. The system generally supports Windows 7
Q: Does the laser head need maintenance?
A: The lens, field lens and galvanometer need to be checked and cleaned regularly. Do not touch the lens directly with your hands or hard objects. Use professional lens paper and anhydrous alcohol to clean it.
Q: What should I do if the device has 'laser does not emit light'?
A: Please check the following points:
Optical path alignment
Is the software started normally?
Is the laser switch turned on?
Is the cooling system working?
Is the laser aging or faulty?
Q: What formats can be imported for marking files?A:
Common supported formats are:
Vector image: *.plt, *.ai, *.dxf
Bitmap: *.bmp, *.jpg
Text: Direct input or import Excel/text content
Q: Does the equipment need to be re-debugged after transportation?
A: Generally, it is necessary to re-check the laser optical path, lens installation and software parameter settings to ensure that there is no looseness or displacement.
