We achieved success with our AcrylaThin order with a very simple solution that worked really well on the 25W however I could not get the same results on the 30W.
Running an AcrylaThin plate on a 25W laser with success:
1. Run the whole piece on the steel setting 2x:
Power = 80
Speed = 60
Pen Mode = Rast/Vect
PPI=500
DPI=500
2. Run the Logo alone on the steel setting:
Power = 80
Speed = 60
Pen Mode = Rast/Vect
PPI=500
DPI=500
DO NOT TOUCH THE ENGRAVED LETTERS OR IMAGES.
Smudging will occur and have an effect on the final product.
3. Spray the piece with Lazer Dark Clear Finish Coat(JDS #LDK200).
Let dry.
Repeat 2-3 times as needed.
Tested on:
Lasers:
NewHermes Incorporated Vanguard Laser 2001 - 25 watts - Success
Gravograph LS800 - 30 watts - Failed
