Abstract
In some embodiments, a method includes engraving, marking and/or inscribing a workpiece using a laser plotter. In said method, in a housing of the laser plotter, one, preferably more, in particular two laser sources in the form of lasers have an effect preferably alternating on the workpiece to be processed. The workpiece is laid in a defined manner on a processing table and a laser beam emitted from the beam source () is transmitted to at least one focusing unit via deflection elements and the laser beam is diverted toward the workpiece and focused for processing. The workpiece, in particular the position of the work piece in relation to the laser beam, is controlled by means of software running in a control unit, such that the workpiece is processed line by line by the displacement of a carriage. A sequence control adapted to the quality of the engraving in which a defined ratio of a spot variable to the line distance and an engraving controller of the lines to be processed is determined and/or carried out by the control unit and the focusing unit on the carriage is controlled corresponding to the defined parameters of the sequence control.
