Who Should Buy the Laser Engraver and Wood Cutter?

 

If You Have These Requirements, The Wood Laser Cutter & Engraver is Your Best Choice.

Both wood laser cutting machines and CNC routers can be invaluable assets for woodcraft businesses. These two tools complement each other rather than compete. If your budget allows, consider investing in both to enhance your production capabilities, though I understand that may not be feasible for most.

1. If your primary task involves intricate carving and cutting wood up to 30mm in thickness,
a CO2 laser cutting machine is the optimal choice.

2. However, if you're part of the furniture industry and require cutting thicker wood for load-bearing purposes,
CNC routers are the way to go.

3. Given the wide range of laser functions available, if you're an enthusiast of wooden craft gifts or just starting your new business, we recommend exploring desktop laser engraving machines that can easily fit on any studio table. This initial investment typically starts at around $3000.

FAQ

 

1. Can a Laser Cutter Cut Wood?

Yes!
A laser cutter can cut wood with precision and efficiency. It's capable of cutting through various types of wood, including plywood, MDF, hardwood, and softwood, making clean, intricate cuts. The thickness of wood it can cut depends on the laser's power, but most wood laser cutters can handle materials up to several millimeters thick.


2. How Thick of Wood Can a Laser Cutter Cut?

Within 25mm Recommended
The cutting thickness depends on the laser power and machine configuration. For CO2 lasers, the most efficient option for cutting wood, power ranges typically from 100W to 600W. These lasers can cut through wood up to 30mm thick. Wood laser cutters are versatile, capable of handling delicate ornaments as well as thicker items like signage and die boards. However, higher power doesn't always mean better results. To achieve the best balance between cutting quality and efficiency, it's crucial to find the right power and speed settings. We generally recommend cutting wood no thicker than 25mm (approximately 1 inch) for optimal performance.


3. How to Laser Engrave Wood?

To laser engrave wood, follow these general steps:

step 1. Prepare Your Design: Create or import your design using graphic design software like Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW. Make sure your design is in vector format for precise engraving.

step 2. Set Up Laser Parameters: Configure your laser cutter settings. Adjust power, speed, and focus settings based on the type of wood and desired engraving depth. Test on a small scrap piece if needed.

step 3. Position the Wood: Place your wood piece onto the laser bed and secure it to prevent movement during engraving.

step 4. Focus the Laser: Adjust the laser's focal height to match the wood's surface. Many laser systems have an autofocus feature or a manual method. We have a YouTube video to give you a detailed laser guide.

4. What is the difference between laser engraving and wood burning?

Laser engraving and wood burning both involve marking wood surfaces, but they differ in technique and precision.

Laser engraving uses a focused laser beam to remove the top layer of wood, creating highly detailed and accurate designs. The process is automated and controlled by software, allowing for complex patterns and consistent results.

Wood burning, or pyrography, is a manual process where heat is applied using a handheld tool to burn designs into the wood. It's more artistic but less precise, relying on the skill of the artist.

In short, laser engraving is faster, more accurate, and ideal for intricate designs, while wood burning is a traditional, handcrafted technique.
