  • Laser Engraving Tips and Tricks for Glassware
    Laser Engraving Tips and Tricks for Glassware By Mike Dean, vice-president of sales and marketing, Epilog Laser Engraving on glass and crystal can produce stunning results. From engraving the names of the bride and groom on wedding champagne flutes to etching a company logo on a set of beer mugs and beyond, glass etching and engraving creates a sense of sophistication and beauty that is very popular among consumers. CO2 laser engraving equipment generally offers a quicker and more convenient alternative to traditional glass engraving techniques, such as sandblasting, which necessitates the creation of a template prior to starting the project. While engraved and etched glassware is in huge demand, depending on the type and lead content, glass is typically a very delicate material to work with. But don’t let the delicacy of the material dissuade you from glass engraving and etching – just keep the following tips and tricks in mind when working with glass and crystal and you’ll produce the results that keep customers coming back for more. Glassware Options First, you might find it easier to work with “everyday” glassware as opposed to crystal. Crystal contains a greater amount of lead, which retains heat very well (too well for a laser!). When you use a CO2 laser to engrave glass, the surface is heated as the laser beam blasts away delicate glass particles. If the glass is unable to cool down adequately, as is sometimes the case with crystal, the markings expand in size, which can produce a distorted look. Avoid a Second Pass Prior to running any glass engraving job, it's very important to test your speed and power settings on the type of glass you'll be using.

  • Techniques in Laser Cutting and Engraving Leather
    Where the Laser Meets the Leather: Techniques in Laser Cutting and Engraving Leather SARAH PIKE If you had ever told me that, as an artist trained in traditional figurative painting who works in stone lithography, I would end up running a laser cutting business, I wouldn't have believed you. But it was through my printmaking discipline and sensibilities that I came to work with laser cutting. And today I draw great satisfaction in helping artists—primarily bookbinders—bridge the gap between handcraft and new technologies. In this article I will share a variety of laser cutting and engraving techniques for working with leather and parchment. A Look at What's Possible Laser cutters, which vaporize material using a pulsating That said, the question I most often get is, “Can you cut beam of light, perform three main tasks: they cut, line metal?” The answer is no: a fiber laser is needed for engrave, and area engrave. When the laser cuts or line laser cutting metal. Due to their size and cost, fiber engraves, it follows the path of the line; when it area lasers are more often found at businesses that service engraves it moves back and forth like an ink-jet printer. industrial companies. Note that in this context, engraving refers to the partial removal of material that can be performed at multiple While I'll try to be as specific as possible, so many depths (fig. 1). variables come into play that it's difficult to give universal guidelines. Laser cutter settings can vary greatly depending on how the leather was processed, the dye used, what part of the skin is being used, and the life of the animal.

  • Study and Development of a Didactic Engraving System Using a Low Powered Laser Diode
    Study and development of a didactic engraving system using a low powered laser diode António Jorge Reis Lordelo Paulos Dissertation Supervisors: Prof. Manuel Rodrigues Quintas Eng.º Jorge Manuel de Matos Reis Engineering Faculty of the University of Porto Master’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering September 2014 Study and development of a didactic engraving system using a low powered laser diode ii Study and development of a didactic engraving system using a low powered laser diode Abstract Laser engravers may be used in a didactic environment for the augmentation of certain activities. Whether it is for training involving motion control systems or for use as a tool in the context of other disciplines, a laser engraving and/or cutting machine is desired. Thus, the present dissertation reports about the study and development of such a system. The main objective is to develop a laser engraving system for didactic purposes. The engraver is meant to use a low powered diode laser device for engraving and/or cutting soft materials. Firstly, a preliminary study of diode laser fundamentals, as well as laser engraving and cutting technologies, was carried out. This allowed acquiring basic knowledge about the device to be used and which sort of configurations are most common for the axes of motion of laser engraving and cutting machines. Furthermore, it served as a basis for the definition of a concept for a working prototype. As such, the project specification ensued to establish the requirements and characteristics to meet in the development of the prototype. Safety, usability and maintenance issues were considered and the technical aspects that may characterise the prototype were addressed.

  • Lasercuttingenamel Article
    Erin Turner1, Matthew Carl2, Marcus L. Young2, and James Thurman1 1College of Visual Arts and Design, University of North Texas, Denton, Texas 2Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of North Texas, Denton, Texas Snag Technical Article Laser Engraved Enamel Many of my pieces involve enameling as a surface treatment for color and texture; however incorporating fine lines often involves delicate Cloisonne, Sgraffito or a myriad of other techniques that never quite fit with my needs. That is until I discovered Arthur Hash’s beautiful enameled brooches, which involved a laser cutter and Adobe Illustrator. The laser, guided by the drawing in Illustrator, is able to burn a crisp line across the surface of the enamel with high heat, essentially over firing it similar to leaving a piece in the kiln for too long. In order to get started with this technique you must have an understanding of some principles. Ross Kowalski has already started us on the path to lasers with his SNAG technical article “A Laser in your Studio” . Please consult his article for more in depth information of laser cutter use. Safety ● The laser cutter burns at a high temperature and can cause great damage to you and the machine if you are not familiar with its use. Please consult the manual for more information. ● Laser cutting glass is tricky. You need to lay 1-2 WET paper towels over the surface of the glass in order to keep the laser from bouncing back and damaging the machine. This is very important. ○ If the paper towel is not touching the surface in all areas it may affect the line that it cuts causing a blurred line.
