Have a small job cutting some 3/16 delrin and would like a starting point for a 30 watt laserpro. I know it will take some experimenting but a starting point will help as I don't have a lot to spare.

My notes on 3/16 Delrin say 10 speed 100 power 500 freq to get a clean cut for black Delrin. White took much less power for some reason...25/100/500.
Laser is 75 watts.

My setting for 1/4" black Delrin is 100% / 3.0 / 1525.
That's in enhanced vector on a 30W Explorer II.

I usually mask it to eliminate edge deposits from the vapor. I have succesfully cut gears in delrin.
