Glossary Of Laser Engraving and Cut Terms

Divergence Divergence, also known as beam divergence, describes the increase in beam diameter and spreading of the laser light as it propagates away from the laser source. In laser engraving, divergence affects the sharpness and resolution of the engraved image, particularly over long distances. Engravers mitigate divergence effects through proper beam collimation and focusing techniques, ensuring consistent engraving quality and clarity across the workpiece. Understanding divergence is crucial in laser engraving to maintain consistent engraving depth and quality across the entire workpiece, particularly when engraving large or irregularly shaped objects. |
