Porosity Porosity refers to the presence of pores, voids, or microscopic cavities within a material's structure, often affecting its density, strength, and surface properties. In laser engraving, porosity can impact engraving quality, clarity, and depth by influencing how the material absorbs and interacts with laser energy.
Materials with high porosity, such as wood, foam, or certain plastics, may exhibit variable engraving effects due to uneven absorption and dissipation of laser energy within the material matrix. Understanding the porosity characteristics of materials is essential for optimizing engraving parameters, selecting suitable engraving techniques, and achieving consistent and uniform engraving results in laser engraving applications. |
