LASER ENGRAVING MACHINES

& LASER ENGRAVERS

Fine Detail. Fast Engraving. Find the Right Laser for Your Work.

What Is Laser Engraving?

Laser engraving is a process that uses a focused laser beam to remove material from a surface, creating text, images, or patterns. A laser engraving machine follows a digital design, controlling where the beam strikes and how much material it removes. Different laser sources—including CO₂, fiber, and UV—are used for different materials and applications. Unlike laser cutting, which cuts through a material, laser engraving creates a design on its surface.

How Laser Engraving Works?

From Design to Engraving in 3 Steps

Turn digital artwork into engraved products with a straightforward workflow on your Thunder Laser engraving machine.

Prepare Your Design

01

Create text, logos, or images in your preferred design software, then import your artwork into software compatible with your laser engraver.

Set Up Your Job

02

Position your material, focus the laser, and adjust the engraving speed, power, and other settings for your material and desired effect.

Check the design’s position using your laser engraving machine’s framing or preview function, then start the job and monitor the engraving process.

LASER ENGRAVING MACHINE FAQS

Q1: How do I choose the right laser engraving machine?

Start with your materials, the finish you want, and your largest workpiece. Then compare laser source, working area, power, and production needs. For batch orders, consider positioning, fixtures, and loading time alongside engraving speed; for cylindrical products, check rotary compatibility and clearance.

Q2: Can one laser engraver process both wood and metal?

CO₂ lasers suit wood and other compatible non-metals, and can mark certain coated or anodized metals. Direct engraving on bare metals generally calls for fiber or MOPA. The Titan Pro Series combines RF CO₂ and MOPA fiber sources for both types of work.

Q3: How much does a laser engraving machine cost?

Price depends on the laser source, power, working area, configuration, and destination. Compare the complete setup, including software, extraction, cooling, rotary accessories, delivery, and training, and confirm which items are included. Contact our team for a quote based on your application and location.

Q4: What software do Thunder Laser engraving machines use?

Thunder Laser gantry CO₂ systems support LaserMaker, with LightBurn compatibility on supported models. Marking systems use software suited to their controller and laser source. Confirm the software version, license, and computer requirements for your chosen model before purchasing; downloads are available in our Download Center.

Q5: What do I need to install and operate a laser engraver?

Plan for the machine footprint, delivery access, electrical supply, and suitable fume extraction. Cooling, air assist, computer, and accessory requirements vary by model. Check the installation guide for your configuration, including operating clearances and any additional precautions required for open-access systems.

Q6: Can I test my material before choosing a machine?

Yes. Share your material details, artwork, workpiece dimensions, and desired result with our material testing team. We can discuss suitable testing arrangements or a demonstration to help you assess engraving quality and machine suitability before purchasing.
