Hi, First time asking for help. I have a Mecpow X3Pro 10W diode laser. I have been using it for a few months but a new problem has occurred I have not seen before. I have made cutting boards to order and engraved the couple’s names and anniversary date. This time the text on one layer is split in two with a distinct separation between the top and bottom of the names. (see photo attached)
The font is Edwardian Script engraved at 4500 mm/min and 50% power, the same setting as I have used for other similar projects. This is the first time, though, for using this font.
The first time it happened I thought I may have bumped the machine or it had gotten caught on the air feed or something. I sanded the whole thing down to get rid of that cut and did it again. The problem is not as severe this time but still not good. I can’t keep sanding the board or I’ll have to remake the whole thing again.
What should I do to correct this?
