I have a Falcon 10W engraver and need settings for cutting and engraving 1/4 inch ABS.
Please forgive me if this is posted here somewhere. I have looked all over and can’t find the answer. Any help, opinions, suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
MC
not sure about ABS but I have cut 1/4" black acrylic with a 10W laser but being a UV laser it cannot be translucent or transparent, the laser won’t do anything. You want a CO2 laser for that. I tried cutting PVC, bad mistake gives off chlorine, not good for you. Tried cutting neoprene, again not good for you.
Thanks for the tips, Bonfireman. I’m using black ABS. I plan to burn it in a well ventilated garage. Waiting for a warm day.
I think you need a CO2 for that and even then it sounds really tricky. Mentions of cyanide gases for one.
