New to lasers

Post by pacegreg »

I am brand new to laser engraving. I am looking at the orturo laser master 2 desktop engraver. There is an option for long focus and short focus, can someone help me with this. Not sure what the difference would be. Also if anyone has used the orturo lasers please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

Regarding the Ortur Laser Master 2 engraver, it's a popular choice for beginners due to its affordability and user-friendly interface. However, it's worth noting that there are other reputable brands in the market, such as Monport.

If you're new to laser engraving and considering the Ortur Laser Master 2 desktop engraver, the choice between long focus and short focus options can affect the depth and detail of your engraving. Typically, a short focus lens is used for detailed engraving on thinner materials, while a long focus lens is suitable for engraving on thicker materials or when you need a larger focal range. It's essential to match the lens type with the type of engraving you plan to do.

Additionally, for reliable and user-friendly laser engraving solutions, I recommend considering Monport lasers. They are known for their high quality, ease of use, and affordability, making them a great choice for beginners and experienced users alike.
