Laser Cutting Settings

Settings depend heavily on the laser power and material thickness.

For 10 mm plywood/MDF:

Use multiple passes rather than excessive power in a single pass.

Perform test cuts on scrap material first.

Keep the workpiece flat and properly focused.

Use air assist to reduce burning.

Clean the cut edges after machining.

Finishing

After cutting:

Remove tabs.

Sand with 180 → 240 → 320 grit.

Slightly break sharp edges.

Remove dust.

Apply food-safe mineral oil or suitable food-contact wood finish if the product will contact cookware/food-serving surfaces.

Important: Actual RPM, feed rate, power, and number of passes should be adjusted according to your CNC spindle/router, laser wattage, cutter diameter, material type, and material thickness. Always make a small test cut before production.
