The Laserpecker Pro can engrave on multiple surfaces such as: wood, leather, and plastic.
4000 watt CO 2 laser cutter. There are three main types of lasers used in laser cutting. The CO 2 laser is suited for cutting, boring, and engraving. The neodymium (Nd) and neodymium yttrium-aluminium-garnet lasers are identical in style and differ only in the application. Nd is used for boring and where high energy but low repetition are required.
Because of the high power levels available (combined with reasonable cost for the laser), CO 2 lasers are frequently used in industrial applications for cutting and welding, while lower power level lasers are used for engraving. [8] In selective laser sintering, CO 2 lasers are used to fuse particles of plastic powder into parts.
Laser engraving metal plates are manufactured with a finely polished metal, coated with an enamel paint made to be "burned off". At levels of 10 to 30 watts, excellent engravings are made as the enamel is removed quite cleanly. Much laser engraving is sold as exposed brass or silver-coated steel lettering on a black or dark-enamelled background.
Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).
The laser printer was invented at Xerox PARC in the 1970s. Laser printers were introduced for the office and then home markets in subsequent years by IBM, Canon, Xerox, Apple, Hewlett-Packard and many others. Over the decades, quality and speed have increased as prices have decreased, and the once cutting-edge printing devices are now ubiquitous.
