The laser engraving process involves the use of a laser beam to remove material from the surface of an object. It's a precise and efficient way to create intricate designs on a variety of materials including metal, plastic, glass and wood. Atomstack laser engravers use a controlled and focused laser beam to etch various patterns on the surface of materials. 2D image engraving is a popular application of laser engraving that involves creating a 2D image or design on the surface of an object.
Design Image
The first step in 2D image engraving is to design the desired image or pattern using design software such as lightburn or Grbl. Once the image design is complete, it needs to be saved in a format compatible with the Atomstack S20 Pro laser engraver software.

Preparation Object
Before sculpting, the surface of the object needs to be prepared to ensure that the design is clean and free of any surface imperfections. For example, if the object is made of wood, it will need sanding to remove any rough edges, bumps, or scratches. If the material is metal, special lubricants need to be applied. The object is then secured inside the Atomstack S30 Pro laser engraver before proceeding to the next step.

Adjust Settings
Settings for laser engraving on specific materials will need to be adjusted to ensure optimal performance. This includes setting laser power, speed and frequency. These adjustments help balance how long the laser is focused on engraving each part and the intensity of the laser beam.

Sculpture Object
Once the object is loaded, prepared and the laser is focused, the actual engraving can begin. According to the parameters set in the software, the laser is directed to follow the pattern or design being engraved. As the laser moves across the surface of an object, it removes a precise amount of material beneath its path. The speed and frequency of the laser beam can be adjusted in real time for finer or more precise engraving.

Quality Control
After the engraving is complete, the object is inspected to ensure the engraving is correct, the image is clear and sharp, and meets the required specifications. Any blemishes, mistakes or errors can be corrected by revising the design and engraving process. The final step in the laser engraving process is to clean the surface of the object to remove any residue, dust or debris created during the engraving process.
In Conclusion
