Yes. Laser engraving wood is ultimately a ‘sublimation’ process. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it produces an accurate focus as well as the ability to control the optics and supply of compressed air. This results in higher-quality finishes.
Wood is an all-natural material, so the user must consider qualities like the density and resin content of the desired wood. Soft woods – such as balsa – require less power and time to cut, while hardwood requires more. Trotec recommends using compressed air for MDF.
While the dark engraving is very sort-after and trendy, it is possible to achieve a white or light finish with Trotec’s laser machines. For this, we recommend using varnished wood. Ensure you machine is working on low power at a high speed.
Defocus the laser beam – about 0.5 - 2mm – and the laser spot will become larger, thus reducing the power density. With this beam, the engraving will have a particularly dark finish. Please note that this method might result in some lost finer details.
Fear not! Laser processing wood is a ‘sublimation’ process. This means the solid material is converted directly into a gas through combustion. Some smoke is normal and to be expected. However, be cautious of inhaling this smoke, especially if cutting or engraving MDF.
