INFLUENCE OF SELECTED LASER PARAMETERS ON QALITY OF IMAGES ENGRAVED ON THE WOOD

The paper demonstrates the method for defining the power and speed of laser engraving of tone raster images on wood. The method is based on expert evaluation of aesthetic perception of engravings on wood produced with various engraving power and speed, defining the range of their favorable values and further application of these values in technological process of engraving different items. The results obtained make it possible to recommend the proposed method to define the rational mode of laser engraving of tone images on other wood species.
