Hi,
I am trying to understand why the laser doesn’t seem to engrave up to the edge of the padlock. No matter how much I adjust the speed or power, nothing changes. I have an Aeon Mira 7 laser. Thank you for your help!”

The surface is curved, the laser beam becomes defocused well before it reaches the edge, and the beam no longer deposits enough power to get the job done.
You may be able to set the focus a few millimeters below the peak at the middle of the lock, but you must then verify “good enough” focus and power across the entire surface.

The lack of focus is the problem.
