How to Engrave on Plastic by 355nm laser
Apr 23 , 2021
How to Engrave on Plastic by 355nm laser Methods of laser marking on plastics Foaming Foaming leaves a tangible mark on the material. It can be seen as laser-induced boiling, which melts the surface. Due to the rapid cooling, bubbles are encapsulated in the material. These bubbles leave a positive mark, which is tangible. The laser works on a low power level and longer pulses. Foaming works on all...
