レーザー彫刻機の定義と作業原則
Laser engraving machine is a device that uses laser beam to engrave patterns or text on the surface of different materials. その動作の原則は、レーザービームを使用して材料の表面を高エネルギーで照射することです, so that the surface of the material is heated, vaporized or melted, thereby forming the desired pattern or text.
Laser engraving machines are often used to make customized gifts, prizes or industrial products, as well as to make complex designs in many industries such as jewelry, electronics and manufacturing.

Applicability of Laser Engraving Machine
ダイオードレーザー彫刻マシン has a wavelength of about 455nm~1064nm. It is ideal for cutting and engraving non-metals, such as wood, レザー, アクリル, 等.
The wavelength of CO2レーザー彫刻マシン についてです 10600 nm, which can be well absorbed by non-metallic materials, especially acrylic and transparent glass.
赤外線レーザー彫刻機 can directly engrave and cut metals, including stainless steel, アルミニウム, 銅, 等.
Clearly define the purpose of use
Before choosing an engraving machine, you must first clarify your purpose of use. Different materials have different absorption rates of lasers, and different engraving machines are suitable for different materials and application scenarios, so you need to choose an engraving machine suitable for specific materials:
- Personal enthusiasts: If you are just a personal enthusiast, you may need a small, affordable engraving machine to make some personalized small objects.
- Professional designer: If you are a professional designer, you may need an engraving machine with higher requirements for engraving accuracy, speed and area to make some artworks.
- Small-scale production: If you are a small business owner and need to produce small batches, you may need an engraving machine with medium power, good stability and long life.
一般に, diode and CO2 laser engraving machines are suitable for non-metallic materials such as wood, レザー, アクリル, 等. The price is relatively low, suitable for beginners and small-scale production. Infrared laser engraving machines can cut and engrave metals, suitable for people who have engraving needs for metals.
考慮事項
Engraving power & Engraving speed
Laser power directly affects the depth and speed of engraving. Choose the right laser power based on your needs. 一般的に言えば, the higher the power, the better the engraving effect, but the higher the price. Speed affects the accuracy of laser cutting. The following is an example of a parameter chart related to laser power and maximum cutting thickness:
彫刻エリア
The engraving area is an important factor in determining the productivity and adaptability of a laser engraver.
It directly affects the size of the material you can handle, as well as the scope of the machine. 例えば, jewelry and other small metal objects are suitable for smaller engraving areas, while wider engraving areas are suitable for large projects such as signs and markings for large industrial equipment.
したがって, when choosing a laser engraver, you should choose a machine with an appropriate engraving area based on the size of the object you want to engrave. Popular working area sizes range from 75mm x 75mm to 300mm x 300mm. Choosing the right engraving area can ensure that your project can be completed efficiently and accurately.
ソフトウェアの互換性
The software compatibility of the engraving machine involves whether the machine can work seamlessly with your design software and whether it supports the file format you need. 例えば, some engraving machines may be directly compatible with vector design software such as AutoCAD, Coreldraw, Photoshop, 等, which can greatly simplify the workflow and improve efficiency. 加えて, some high-end engraving machines may also support specific software functions, such as automatic path optimization, speed control, 等, which can further improve the quality of engraving and production efficiency. したがって, when choosing an engraving machine, be sure to confirm whether the machine is compatible with your design software and supports the functions you need.
予算
Budget is the first consideration when choosing an engraving machine. Different engraving machines have different prices, ranging from a few hundred euros to tens of thousands of euros. You need to decide what price range to buy an engraving machine based on your financial situation and expected return on investment. 同時に, you should also consider long-term operating costs, including power consumption, consumables replacement, 等.
Maintenance and repair
The maintenance and repair costs of the engraving machine are also an important consideration. Some machines may require more frequent maintenance, which will increase additional costs. Choosing machines that are easy to maintain and repair can reduce future troubles and expenses.
Accessory functions
Accessory functions refer to additional functions that come with the engraving machine, such as autofocus, multi-axis control, rotary chuck, honeycomb table, 等. These accessories can improve the accuracy and efficiency of engraving, expand the diversity of engraved objects, help better heat dissipation, 等, but they may also increase the cost of the machine. Choose whether you need these accessory functions according to your specific needs.
使いやすさ
Ease of use involves the machine’s operating interface and user experience. Choosing an engraving machine with an intuitive interface and easy operation can improve work efficiency and reduce learning costs.
接続性
Connectivity refers to the ability of the engraving machine to connect with other devices (such as computers, プリンター, 等). Good connectivity can easily transfer design files and improve the efficiency of the workflow.
安全性
Safety is a factor that must be considered for any mechanical equipment. Make sure the engraving machine meets safety standards, such as emergency stop buttons, 保護カバー, チルト保護, child locks, 等, to protect the safety of operators.
Noise
Engraving machines make noise when working, especially when working for long periods of time, noise may become a problem. Choosing a machine with a lower noise level can create a more comfortable working environment.
Fume and purification
Fume and dust may be generated during the engraving process, which not only affects air quality but may also cause health hazards. Choosing an engraving machine equipped with a fume extraction system can reduce these risks.
結論
Choosing the right engraving machine for you is a decision that requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. You can find the engraving machine that best suits you by clarifying the purpose of use, choosing the type of laser, considering the engraving material, determining the engraving area, evaluating the engraving accuracy, considering the machine power, software and control system, budget and return on investment, after-sales service and technical support, as well as user reviews and brand reputation. Hope this blog can help you make a wise choice and make your creativity and production more efficient and accurate.
