Laser Settings for Stainless Steel Engraving
While settings may vary based on wattage and model, here’s a solid starting point:
| Purpose | Snelheid (mm/sec) | Stroom (%) | Freq. (kHz) | Pulsbreedte (NS) | Passen |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diepe gravure | 100–300 | 80–100 | 20–30 | 150–200 | 10–50 |
| Black Marking | 800–1000 | 40–60 | 200–300 | 100–200 | 1–2 |
| Kleurmarkering (Red/Blue) | 500–900 | 25–50 | 200–300 | 50–100 | 1–3 |
| Logo-gravure | 300–600 | 50–70 | 30–60 | 100–150 | 1–5 |
💡 Voor de tip: Always test settings on a scrap piece. Stainless reacts differently depending on alloy type and surface finish.
Color Laser Engraving on Stainless Steel
Met een MOPA-vezellaser, you can do more than black and white—you can add color. By precisely adjusting pulse duration, frequentie, en snelheid, you can produce:
- Blauw, rood, yellow, groente, en zelfs gradient tones
- No paint or chemicals—just laser heat treating the surface
Color laser engraving stainless steel works best on brushed or polished finishes and can turn a basic logo into a show-stopper.
Design Tips for Stainless Steel Engraving
- High contrast designs work best. Avoid ultra-thin fonts under 1mm stroke width.
- Gebruik vector graphics (SVG, DXF) voor scherpe resultaten.
- For photos or grayscale art, gebruik dithering modes in LightBurn or EZCAD.
- Avoid raster images unless working with UV for extremely fine detail.
Common Mistakes & Troubleshooting
❌ Ghosting or Shadow Marks
→ Check focus height and lower your frequency. Clean your lens before every job.
❌ Burn Discoloration or Overheating
→ Use lower power and slower speeds. Stainless retains heat—less is more.
❌ Inconsistent Depth Across Surface
→ Re-level your bed or calibrate the Z-axis. Uneven surfaces can ruin detail.
❌ Rusting after Engraving
→ Clean with isopropyl alcohol and apply light anti-corrosion spray for outdoor use.
