If adjusting the power settings does not work, start over and adjust only the speed setting. These rotary engravers used mechanical spinning bit to remove material. Different colored plastics, even if they are from the same manufacturer will demand unique speed and power settings from your laser engraver.

If you do not acceptable initial results with the recommended speed and power settings.

Once you have acceptable results, record those settings for that particular plastic so that you wont have to repeat the experimental process. Because there is such broad range of plastics, it can be necessary to experiment with particular plastic to determine if it is laser compatible.

Engraving on plastic has changed greatly in the past few years.

These rotary engravers used mechanical spinning bit to remove material.

These rotary engravers used mechanical spinning bit to remove material. These provide much better engraving and cutting characteristics and are commonly referred to as micro laminate, microsurfaced, or simply laser engravable plastics. Recently though, plastic manufacturers have developed broad range of plastics, it can be necessary to experiment with particular plastic to determine if it is laser compatible. If adjusting the power settings does not work, start over and adjust only the speed setting. Before laser engravers, plastic manufacturers designed plastic for rotary engraving systems.

Recently though, plastic manufacturers have developed broad range of plastics, it can be necessary to experiment with particular plastic to determine if it is laser compatible.

Use the guidelines in your manual as starting point when determining the correct speed and power settings, start experimenting by first changing only the power settings.
