Each material type responds differently to the fiber wavelength. It also depends on what the operator is attempting to achieve. A light mark on a given material will have different settings than when performing a deep engrave. This is true when changing materials as well.
When changing the settings for different materials, the following will have an impact on laser setting requirements:
- Available power
- Material type
- Coatings (if any)
- The type of mark desired
- Reflectivity
