Marble lucky charm
Step by step instructions
Turn a small marble stone into a beautiful charm for any type of event.
Preparation
Required material:
- Small marble stones (we used a marble mosaic tile and removed them from the mat)
Machine used:
- Speedy 360, 100 Watt
- 1.5" lens
- Vacuum table
For this sample you can use any laser machine from the Speedy laser engraver series.
Tip:
Use the 1.5" lens if you want to engrave fine details as shown in our graphic
Step by Step
Step 1: Import design
Create your own file or import our template, then send the job to the laser machine using the settings below:
Print settings
| Process mode | Resolution | Cut line |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 1000 dpi | none |
| Halftone | Others |
|---|---|
| Color | - |
Tip:
Since we are engraving in great detail, using the highest resolution possible is recommended (1000 dpi).
Step 2: Engraving the marble
The first step is the wash the dust off the stone by running it under water. Let the stone dry off, then place it in the laser machine and focus on the surface. If the stone is rounded, focus on the average value of the engraving area. Enter the material parameter settings. The parameters can vary depending on laser machine and available laser power.
Laser parameters engraving:
| Color | Process | Power (%) | Speed (%) | ppi/Hz |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| black | Engrave CO2 | 50 | 20 | 1000 |
| Passes | Air Assist | Z-Offset | Advanced |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | on | - 0.5 mm | - |
Info:
We used a negative offset value. Thereby the surface is exposed to more laser power and the engraving shows more contrast.
Step 3: Cleaning
Clean the stone with a damp cloth, we do not recommend putting it under running water as it will wash off the engraving dust which gives contrast to the engraving and shows better.
Inspiration
Engrave sayings, slogans or quotes on the stones. Your imagination is the only limit.
Personalize the stones with names or dates to add extra value to your design.
