Bitmap engraving is similar to high-definition dot matrix printing. The laser head swings from side to side, each timeaving a line composed of a series of dots, then the laser head moves up and down at the same time to engrave multiple lines, finally forming the entire or text. Scanned graphics, text, and vectorized graphics can all be used for bitmap engraving.
Unlike bitmap engraving, vector cutting is done along outer contours of the graphics. We usually use this mode for through cutting on materials like wood, acrylic, paper, etc., and also for marking on various material.
Engraving speed: Engraving speed refers to the speed at which the laser head moves, usually expressed in IPS (inches/second). High brings high production efficiency. Speed is also used to control the depth of the cut; for a specific laser intensity, the slower the speed, the deeper the cut or engraving. You can adjust the speed using the control panel of the engraver, or using the computer’s operation software. The adjustment range is from 1% 100%, with an increment of 1%. The advanced motion control system of the motor allows you to maintain ultra-fine engraving quality even at speeds.
Engraving intensity: Engraving intensity refers to the strength of the laser hitting the material surface. For a specific engraving speed, the higher intensity, the deeper the cut or engraving. You can adjust the intensity using the control panel of the engraver, or using the computer’s operation software. adjustment range is from 1% to 100%, with an increment of 1%. The higher the intensity, the lower the speed, and the the cut.
Laser spot size: The size of the laser spot can be adjusted using lenses with different focal lengths. Small spot size lenses are used for high engraving. Large spot size lenses are used for lower resolution engraving, but they are the best choice for vector cutting
