Free Material Testing Service Questionnaire - Laser Cutting & Laser Engraving This form is designed for customers who want to test the capabilities of our engraving heads on the materials they use. It should be noted that often parameters that seem irrelevant to us at first glance in reality have a very significant impact on the cutting and engraving process. Please fill in the form with as much information as possible. Then the sample delivery address will be sent to the e-mail address you provide.* - Required fieldsContact person name / Company nameContact email addressGeneral Application Description1. Application QuestionsWhat kind of test would you like to be carried out? (Cutting, engraving, both?)What is your material used for?Have you ever cut or engraved on this material before?In many cases, the cutting parameters depend on the material of the worktop on which the sample is placed. What type of material is your work table?Is it possible to cut the material both in the air (using a honeycomb cutting surface) and on a solid surface?YesNoNo answerIs it acceptable for the material to experience air pressure during cutting or engraving? (This is created from laser head’s fan.)For thicker materials, there may be variation in the cutting angle (ie. it won’t be perfectly perpendicular to the work surface). Is some variation in cutting angle acceptable?YesNoNo answerAre burn marks from cutting acceptable?YesNoNo answerCan the cutting be done with several laser passes?YesNoNo answerCan the material be cleaned after cutting? If so, any special considerations?What is the minimum accepted feed rate for cutting?Is it required that cutting take place in both directions?What is the maximum dimension [mm] of the laser spot that is acceptable for you?Is the weight of the laser head weight an important consideration for you?YesNoNo answerIs it important for you that laser head operates quietly?YesNoNo answerDo you already have any of our laser heads? If so, which ones?Is it possible for you to send a sample/samples for tests in A4 format or bigger?YesNoNo answerWhat kind of cutting patterns are desired? (Simple or complicated shapes in different directions?)Do you have any DXF files of your specific laser cutting or engraving project you want to send?Allowed extensions: dxf, dwg. It is possible to add multiple files. Browse to the files you want to upload from your computer and use Ctrl/Cmd+Select to select multiple files.2. Physical and Chemical ParametersDo you have a material characteristics datasheet? If not please attach photos of the material and try to answer following questions from this section.Allowed extensions: pdf, jpeg, jpg, gif, png, doc, docx, xls, xlsx, rar, zip. It is possible to add multiple files. Browse to the files you want to upload from your computer and use Ctrl/Cmd+Select to select multiple files.What is the technical (chemical) name of the material?What is the thickness [mm] of the material?Is the material transparent, natural or colored? What is the colour?Does the material consist of bright and dark colors?YesNoNo answerDoes the material have a highly reflective surface?YesNoNo answerWhat is the material structure? (Solid, laminated, layered, empty in the middle, layered with empty areas, other, etc.)Is the material a homogeneous composite?YesNoNo answerIs the material elastic?YesNoNo answer3. Machine and SoftwareWhat is the name of the machine you use?What is the working area [mm x mm] of your machine?What is the working range [mm] in the Z axis on your machine?How many laser heads can work simultaneously on your machine?What is the maximum feed rate [mm/min] of your machine?What is the temperature range [°C] in the room/place in which the laser head will work?Is it possible to provide good ventilation to move smoke from cutting or engraving away from the machine?YesNoNo answerWhat is the name of the software you use or plan to use to generate G-Code for your machine?How many hours and in what cycles are you planning to use the laser?Please attach any corresponding files which may help us.Allowed extensions: jpg, jpeg, png, gif, bmp, pdf, rar, zip, doc, docx, xls, xlsx.
