I would love to know what machine cut that? Please let me know. Steve
Steve, we used our custom high power fiber laser to do engraving for this ceramic cup project.
Dear Guru, what is the wattage and the brand of your fiber laser machine?
We have many machines, they all our custom builds under LaserCutZ name, some parts are form TempGP.
Most common power we have now is 30, 70, 100W for smaller fibers and 1000, 1500, 4000W for bigger machines. Note power alone is not enough to evaluate fiber lasers! 500W fiber that is well build can work better then 4000W yet both can die in a second if configured wrong.
can you please tell me what machine was use to deep engrave this cup your not being clear on it thank you
that was our fiber machine
I am having a bad migraine with ceramic engraving/marking.
Do you have ceramic marking ink or something similar?
When I tried to use my 40W co2 to engrave deep into a ceramic tile, it just doesnt work, and wont go deep enough, so engraving, and then inking it later wont work for my use.
what you see on our post was not done with CO2, we used 80W MOPA instead. It penetrates calcium or concrete fairly easy. in fact higher powers are used for concrete laser drilling.
On 40W CO2 at best you will see little channel and many many passes will be needed. If original ceramics is synthetic then you will see more melting then chipping which will not allow deep engraving at all. So i recommend trying job on MOPA or at least Qswith fiber with max possible power and smallest lens… like at least 70mm Theta
