A 10w laser with good manufacturing can do at best 318LPI (0.08mm line interval). If you use 636LPI, you cannot improve resolution. At 636LPI, which is 1/2 of a 10w spot, means you will overlap (burn) every pass by 50%. All you are doing is overburning the image.
Non riesco a capire… intervallo non va regolato anche in base allo spot del laser? Io ho uno spot di 0. 06 in teoria… Poi dici ch’è venuta brutta come incisione?
I don’t understand… shouldn’t the interval also be adjusted based on the laser spot size? I have a 0.06 spot size in theory… So you’re saying the engraving turned out poorly?
It didn’t seem that way to me, but you’re the experts.
Too bad. See you next time I burn.
A 0.06mm spot size translates to 318LPI, not 600+.
I am not saying the engraving turned out poorly. In fact, it looks pretty good to me. I wish mine turned out that good! But if you want to take advantage of the detail the 10w beam can produce, 318LPI should be your highest setting.
When I am burning wood, I typically use 254LPI because there is always some side burning with the laser. If I am doing tiles, tumblers, or anodized aluminum business cards, then I will use 318LPI because those items can show greater detail.
Summary: Use whatever makes you happy. We are only pointing out details that you may not have known. More knowledge in your toolbox is always a good thing.
