For now, the most widely used equipment in the advertising and woodworking industry is the mechanical engraving machine and laser engraving machine, many people are difficult to accurately distinguish the difference between these two types of equipment. If you do not understand the difference between them, it is impossible to accurately use him they to production. Many times a workpiece in the end with a mechanical engraving machine or laser engraving machine to process, there are many users friends can not accurately understand
Mechanical engraving machine and laser engraving machine and the main difference is the difference in the way the carving molding, laser engraving machine using laser light source as the carving energy to carve. The mechanical engraving machine is the use of metal tools to carve, the type of tool, specifications are very high requirements.
Mechanical engraving machine and laser engraving machine the difference between the two mainly have.
First, in the engraving fineness, laser engraving than tool engraving in the precision is higher, because the laser engraving light source diameter is very small, while the tool engraving itself tool has a certain knife width, so in addition to the accuracy of the quality of the machine itself also contains the precision requirements of the tool.
Second, the choice of engraving materials, laser engraving on metal materials difficult to do a depth of engraving, and may only be the metal surface coating engraving. And tool engraving machine can do a certain depth of engraving, or even cutting.
Third, laser engraving is non-contact processing objects, for flat carving does not need to fix the workpiece. And tool engraving because it is contact engraving, so the workpiece is required to be fixed.
Fourth, laser engraving of the laser tube there is a certain life time limit, and mechanical tool engraving does not exist time limit, but there will be tool wear and tear, in the case of serious wear and tear is necessary to replace the tool.
Fifth, in the plastic engraving process, laser engraving may produce toxic gases, the need for specific air purification system to the exhaust gas to the air, while the tool engraving machine will not produce pollution to the air.
Sixth, in the ability to engrave photos is very good, can be directly JPG format photos for engraving, while the tool engraving can not do this.
