Operational Process
STEP01
Prepare & Position the Wood
Place the beech wood flat on the laser bed and make sure the surface is clean and stable.
Secure the wood if needed so it does not shift during engraving. The design should also be adjusted according to the actual type and size of the material before processing.
STEP02
Import & Adjust the Design File
Import the wooden tray design file into LightBurn, then adjust the size, position, and engraving settings according to the beech wood.
Check that the name, pattern, or logo is placed within the desired engraving area before starting the laser job.
STEP03
Set the Correct Laser Focus
Accurate focusing is important for clean engraving on wood.
If your machine has auto focus, use it for quick setup. For manual focusing, lower the laser head with the focus stick until it touches the wood surface at the correct angle.
STEP04
Frame the Design and Start Laser Engraving
Use the Frame function to check the engraving area and confirm that the design stays within the wooden tray surface.
Once everything is aligned, start the laser engraving job. Stay near the machine and monitor the process to ensure the engraved details remain clean and even.
STEP05
Complete the Task
After engraving, remove the wooden tray from the laser bed and check whether the engraved pattern or text is clear.
Gently wipe away any dust or residue if needed. Your personalized wooden tray is now ready for serving, displaying, or gifting.
Come and Try!
A wooden tray is a stylish platform for presenting meals, drinks, snacks, or decorative items, adding a warm and elegant touch to daily life.
By adding names, patterns, or logos with laser engraving, you can make a simple tray feel more personal, special, and suitable for your own space.
