2. Choosing the Right Laser Head: Power and Application
Selecting the correct laser power is crucial to achieving the best results. UUNA TEK offers laser heads in 2.5W, 10W, and 15W, each suited to different tasks. The 2.5W laser is ideal for delicate surface engraving on lighter materials such as wood, fabric, and paper. It's a great choice for those focused on precision and fine detail, especially on softer materials.On the other hand, the 10W and 15W laser heads are more powerful, allowing for faster engraving and deeper cuts. Both are suitable for harder materials like thick wood, leather, and even certain types of plastic. The key difference is that the 15W laser offers greater strength and efficiency for cutting thicker materials, making it perfect for more demanding projects.In deciding which laser head to choose, consider the materials you'll be working with, your desired outcome (engraving or cutting), and how much speed and power you require.

5. 6 Best Tips for Laser Engraving on Leather
Leather is a popular material for laser engraving because of its durability and the elegant look it provides. To get the best results when engraving on leather, consider the following tips:
Choose the Right Laser Power: For engraving on leather, a 2.5W laser head is typically sufficient for surface designs, while the 15W head is better for deeper cuts.
Test Your Design: Before starting, test your design on a scrap piece of leather to ensure the laser settings (power, speed, and focus) are ideal.
Avoid Too Much Heat: High laser power can cause burning or discoloration on leather. It’s important to adjust the power level to prevent damage.
Proper Ventilation: Leather produces smoke when engraved, so ensure good ventilation or use an air assist to prevent the smoke from affecting your design.
Clean After Engraving: After engraving, gently clean the leather with a damp cloth to remove any soot or residue.
Design Considerations: Since leather is a soft material, avoid intricate designs that require fine lines or extreme detail, which can distort due to heat.
