Cutting Speed Cutting speed in laser engraving refers to the rate at which the laser beam traverses the material surface during cutting or engraving operations. It is typically measured in units of length per unit of time, such as millimeters per second (mm/s) or inches per minute (in/min). Cutting speed directly affects the efficiency, throughput, and quality of the engraving process.
Higher cutting speeds enable faster material removal rates but may compromise cutting quality, while slower speeds offer greater precision but reduce productivity. Optimizing cutting speed involves balancing material type, thickness, laser power, and desired engraving depth to achieve optimal results for specific applications and materials. |
