How to Compare Laser Engraving And CNC Engraving
Laser engraving and CNC engraving are commonly used in various CNC Manufacturing industries. They can be engraved all kinds of patterns, Logo brand, AD, etc. today, we will briefly introduce the difference between laser engraving and cnc engraving:
- The CNC engraving machine requires cutting tools to carve the surface of the material, have the stress, the requirements
of the fixed, and the material flatness. However, laser cutting machine is used for non-contact machining to the products by laser, the machining of the material has no direct impacts, not caused mechanical degeneration, and for the machined material also has no fixed, flatness requirements. - To compare with cnc engraving, laser cutting materials are more extensive.
Laser cutting machines can machining glass, leather, wood, marble, cloth, rubber, etc. and some of the texture of soft material such as leather, wood, brittle crack easily crystal also can be machined. But the CNC engraving machine can’t do this.
- CNC engraving machine is cut by cutting tools, so it will have some knife seams. It can cut some thick materials. In addition to this, it will not be like the laser cutting machine has heat deformation or burn marks.
After laser cutting, even so, the gap is smaller and edges are very smooth, but it can’t cut thick materials. Such as Wood, PVC, ABS, and other material. And it also will leave burn marks or heat formation.
- CNC engraving machine can do 3d processing, but the laser cutting machine only can do 2d processing
- To compare with a laser engraving machine, CNC engraving machine is cheaper, and maintenance, consumable costs are relatively lower. And the complexity of the operation also is lower. But the high cost, low-efficiency slow speed of machining and CNC engraving machine faults can’t be ignored.
- The laser engraving machine is using for engraving the parts by laser, which belongs to non-contact engraving; in general, the CNC machine uses the mechanical tool head to complete the cutting of surface engraving of the materials, they have fundamentally difference. The cnc machine is used to cut the advertising material, which is not available to the laser machine. The laser machine can carve crystal, acrylic, and double color board because of power is limited.
The Laser Engraving Machine Is Applied To Below The Industries
- Brand: Making all kinds of staff badges, various kinds of door cards, etc.
- Making Model: Making sandish models, house models, etc
- Shoe industry: the sole trademark pattern processing
- Wood: Used for embossing designing and production
- Automotive industry: Tyre mold, car lamp mold processing
- Mold industry: Engraving button embossing die, injection mold, blow molding die, stamping die, etc.
- Packaging industry
- Printing industry and so on
The laser engraving machine is applied to the following materials:
- Metal sheet, acrylic, plexiglass, glass, cloth, leather, paper, bamboo products, film, etc
CNC Engraving Machine Is Applied To Below The Industries
- Wood industry: cabinet door, painless door, screen, etc furniture products milling.
- Mold industry: Engraving all kinds of image, transmission, plane carving, cutting and washing, and other effects.
- Stone sculpture: natural marble, granite, milestone, glass, etc
- Artware industry: Engraving all kinds of elegant designing on woodiness, bamboo, man-made marble, organic board, double color board, and so on.
CNC engraving machining ranges:
It is used for all kinds of plane material cutting: 2d engraving, 3d engraving. In addition to the multifunction engraving machine main function and advantage are: powerful, multi-usage, no matter you will make bronze, stainless steel, titanium gold, aluminum and other metal surface engraving, carving decorative pattern and art graphic arts and crafts, etc, it can so easy to do.
