Laser Settings for Stainless Steel Engraving
While settings may vary based on wattage and model, here’s a solid starting point:
| Purpose | Velocidade (mm/s) | Poder (%) | Frequencia. (kHz) | Largura do pulso (ns) | Passes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gravação Profunda | 100–300 | 80–100 | 20–30 | 150–200 | 10–50 |
| Black Marking | 800–1000 | 40–60 | 200–300 | 100–200 | 1–2 |
| Marcação de cores (Red/Blue) | 500–900 | 25–50 | 200–300 | 50–100 | 1–3 |
| Logo Engraving | 300–600 | 50–70 | 30–60 | 100–150 | 1–5 |
💡 Para a ponta: Always test settings on a scrap piece. Stainless reacts differently depending on alloy type and surface finish.
Color Laser Engraving on Stainless Steel
Com um Laser de fibra MOPA, you can do more than black and white—you can add color. By precisely adjusting pulse duration, frequência, e velocidade, you can produce:
- Azul, vermelho, amarelo, verde, e até mesmo 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.
- Usar vector graphics (SVG, DXF) for sharp results.
- For photos or grayscale art, usar dithering modes in LightBurn or EZCAD.
- Avoid raster images unless working with UV for extremely fine detail.
Common Mistakes & Solução de problemas
❌ 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.
