Fiber
Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. FM1212-50S uses a Raycus solid-state 50W fiber laser. The fiber source has a life expectancy of 100,000 hours.
The generated laser beam is then amplified and fed to the cutting head using a flexible optical fiber.
It will provide the required speed and power rate for aluminum and steel, blackacrylic, lexan and granite.
However, fiber lasers cost a lot so you'll need to look into diode-type lasers if you want a cheap laser engraving machine.

Finally, the laser beam will be projected onto the work material and is focused at the cutting head.
FM-Desktop, a mobile engraver machine, has a footprint of 33.5" x 24-.5". This machine can mark on 4.33"x4.33", which makes it ideal for small projects like laser engraving knives.
Laser cuts metal by using light. To be able to cut and pierce metal, light is concentrated at a single point. You can think of a magnifying lens that can be used for focusing sunlight onto a single point to burn it. This is how cutting with light works.
Oxygen is often used in the laser cutting process, and sparks flying during the cutting process can easily cause fire. Therefore, there should be no inflammable and explosive materials in the working area, and corresponding protective facilities should be provided at the same time.
Fiber lasers are revolutionizing the laser metal cutting industry with their low maintenance cost and higher cutting efficiency.
For engraving larger areas, you will need a 30-W or 50W laser fiber to upgrade to 7.87"x7.87", or 11.81"x11.87".
FSL Muse Pandora has the ability to raster and create vector engravings on aluminum, steel nickel, copper and silver as well stone and leather.
Fiber laser's small focal circle allows you to focus laser light with great intensity. This makes it an excellent choice when engraving high-contrast permanent applications.
Power consumption is extremely low.
A 3000W fiber laser requires 10kW of power plus 5kW for a chiller, for a total of 15kW. $2,700 per year at a rate of 15kW per hour for 12 hours.
Fiber lasers leave unsightly marks on wood.
The goal of any marking or engraving project is to create a readable mark, whether by hand or machine. Uncontrolled absorption, on the other hand, results in an uncontrolled mark on the wood.
Fiber lasers typically cost between $20,000 and $45,000.
