Radiant Exposure Radiant exposure is a measure of the amount of radiant energy per unit area received by a surface over a specific period of time. In laser engraving, radiant exposure quantifies the energy delivered to the material surface during the engraving process and is typically expressed in joules per square centimeter (J/cm²).
Radiant exposure plays a crucial role in controlling engraving depth, material removal rates, and heat-affected zones. By adjusting laser parameters such as power, speed, and pulse duration, operators can manipulate radiant exposure to achieve desired engraving effects while minimizing material damage and distortion. |
