When using the Atomstack S30 Pro laser engraver, you can cut and engrave a variety of materials, including but not limited to:
Metal: Enough power to engrave on metal surfaces, especially stainless steel.
Wood: Such as paulownia, plywood, MDF board, etc., can be used to create wooden crafts and decorations.
Plastic: Including acrylic, PVC, ABS, etc., suitable for making signs, signs and models.
Paper and Cardstock: For cutting card, labels, packaging material and artwork.
Leather: Genuine and synthetic leather, which can be used for leatherwork, lettering and decoration.
Cloth: Fabrics, textiles, and yarns, useful for making garments, fabrics, and embroidery.
Rubber: Rubber sheets and rubber products, which can be used to cut rubber stamps and engrave rubber surfaces.
Ceramics: Can be engraved and marked, suitable for ceramic crafts and decorations.
Glass: It is suitable for engraving opaque glass and making decorative glass products.
Mirror materials: such as mirror stainless steel, need to be handled carefully to avoid reflecting the laser beam.
Black acrylic sheet: Atomstack S30 Pro can cut 10mm black acrylic sheet for making various acrylic products.
In summary, the S30 Pro laser engraving machine offers a wide range of cutting and engraving material options, providing flexibility for a variety of creative projects and production needs. Note, however, that different materials may require different laser parameters and techniques, so it is best to familiarize yourself with the processing requirements of each material before proceeding. So how do we use Atomstack S30 Pro for cutting, I will explain in detail below.
Note: Cutting metal is a highly technical job that requires special care and safety measures. Strictly follow the manufacturer's safety recommendations and usage guidelines.
Preparation:
Make sure the work area of the Atomstack S30 laser engraver is clean and use laser safety glasses to protect your eyes.
Prepare your stainless steel workpiece and make sure it sits flat on the work platform.
- Set up the workpiece: Use an appropriate fixture or device to ensure that the stainless steel workpiece remains stable during cutting to prevent movement or shaking.
- Set laser parameters: Open the control software of S30 Pro. According to the type and thickness of stainless steel, set the appropriate laser power, speed and focus parameters. Metal cutting generally requires higher power.
- Create the design: Using the design software supported by the atomstack laser engraving machine, create the design you want to cut on the stainless steel. Ensure that the design lines up accurately on the workpiece, including any desired cut traces or paths.
- Set the engraving position: In the control software, set the starting position of the laser to an appropriate position on the stainless steel workpiece.
- Cutting: start the laser cutting process. The Atomstack S30 Pro will start cutting the stainless steel surface according to your design. Cutting speed and depth will depend on the laser parameters you set, and it will usually take multiple cuts to achieve the desired depth.
- Inspection and cleaning: After finishing cutting, turn off the laser machine and wait for the stainless steel workpiece to cool down. Check the cut to make sure the cut is clean and clean up any residue if necessary.
Safe Handling: Handle cut metal edges with care as they may be sharp. When cutting stainless steel or other metals, keep an eye on the operation and be ready to use the emergency stop button in case of the unexpected.
The Atom Stack S30 Pro's high-power laser and specially designed laser module enable it to cut metal materials such as stainless steel, but do so with caution and make sure you take proper safety measures to protect yourself and your equipment. Also, depending on the metal type and thickness, some testing and parameter adjustments may be required to obtain the best cutting results.
The steps for Atomstack S30 Pro to cut other materials are basically the same as those for cutting metal. We need to pay attention to the different parameters required for different materials. Below I will introduce the detailed parameters of some materials for you. If you have more material requirements, then you need to use the engraving machine to try it yourself.
The reason why the S30 Pro can cut and engrave a wide range of materials, including metals such as stainless steel, stems from its high-power laser (the world's first 33W output), multi-beam laser coupling technology, and an upgraded air assist system. In addition, the 32-bit main board and 256-bit color level ensure a finer engraving effect, while the new laser module provides more stable laser power. Equipped with a terminal control panel, it supports offline engraving, making it suitable for a variety of creative and processing needs. Combined application of these features makes the S30 Pro a versatile laser processing device that provides efficient and precise cutting and engraving capabilities for a variety of materials.
