A laser engraver is a machine that uses a focused beam of light, or laser, to etch designs or patterns onto various materials. This technology allows for precise and detailed engraving on surfaces like wood, metal, glass, and plastic. The laser removes material from the surface, creating a permanent mark that can be used for personalization, branding, or artistic purposes. These machines are commonly used in industries such as manufacturing, jewelry making, and crafting. They can be operated manually or through computer software, allowing users to create intricate designs with ease. The versatility of a laser engraver makes it a popular tool for both professionals and hobbyists.
