PETG Laser Test Grid Plate – for IR Laser
Print Profile(1)
Description
This is a simple PETG test grid plate designed to help you find the right settings for IR laser engraving on PETG.
Print the plate in PETG, place it inside your IR laser, and run your own engraving test grid directly on the surface. This makes it much easier to compare different power and speed settings and find the best result for your specific laser, material color, and filament brand.
What it is for
This test plate is useful for checking:
- engraving visibility on PETG
- different laser power settings
- different speed settings
- surface reaction of PETG
- best contrast for your filament color
- repeatable test results before engraving real parts
Recommended Use
- Print the plate in PETG.
- Place it flat inside your IR laser.
- Create a test grid in your laser software.
- Vary power and speed values.
- Choose the best-looking result for your PETG filament.
Notes
Results may vary depending on:
- PETG brand
- PETG color
- surface texture
- laser power
- focus distance
- engraving speed
- number of passes
For best results, always test with the same PETG filament and print settings that you plan to use for your final part.
Safety Notice
Always use proper laser safety precautions. PETG should only be engraved in a well-ventilated area with suitable extraction or filtration. Never leave the laser unattended while operating.
