fantastic explanation!!!

Good day, I have a 50w Fiber Laser machine - can you engrave on clear glass? and if so what settings should I use.

[@GtschmidtMarkingSystems]

Generally, it's possible to etch clear glass with a fiber laser, but the type of glass, its thickness, and other factors will affect your results. As such, we can't give any specific settings for your application.

@@GtschmidtMarkingSystems Good day, thank you for clarifying. I am based in SA and have a lot of people asking me for engraving on glass items. can you possibly steer me in the right direction as where to look?

@@lorraineadendorff5245 Sorry for the late reply. I'm testing some ideas and will let you know if I have any success. In the meantime, if you know the manufacturer of your laser, we recommend reaching out to them first as they would have the best understanding of the laser's capabilities.
