Gepoederde Inlays (De Metaalmethode)
Move beyond simple engraving. Powder-fused inlays allow you to embed metallic, iridescent, or high-contrast colors directly into wood or stone using specialized powders that fuse under the heat of the laser beam.
Key Points
- →Material Choice: Closed-grain woods (Maple, Cherry) prevent powder from bleeding into surrounding fibers.
- →Fusion Temperature: Diodes must move slow enough to melt the powder but fast enough not to ignite the base material.
Procedure
- 1Engrave a deep pocket (approx 0.5mm - 1.0mm) in your base material.
- 2Fill the channel with inlay powder. Use a straight edge to level the surface.
- 3Run a second pass at 20% power, 500mm/min to fuse the powder into a solid mass.
Safety Checklist
- →Do not use powders containing lead or cadmium. Use only laser-safe inlay materials.
