White contrast on black anodized. LP4 galvo handles this fast.

Full power to remove coating. May need 2 passes for thick coats.

Sharp mark on chrome Zippo lid. Portable LP4 suits this well.

Permanent ID mark. LP4 app template makes batch marking easy.

Low power on gold-filled. Compact galvo is ideal for jewellery.

Color marking on titanium. Adjust speed to shift the hue.

Use LP4 rotary. App handles rotation speed sync automatically.

Black mark on stainless. High power needed at 2W. Stable result.

Use LP4 preset for anodized. White mark at galvo speed.

Chrome plating marks with a subtle contrasting finish. The LP4's portability is its main advantage here — marking chrome-plated hardware on vehicles, machinery, or large equipment in situ without disassembly. Results depend heavily on the chrome thickness.

Copper is reflective and challenging for fiber lasers. At 88% the LP4 can mark copper but results are less consistent than stainless or aluminium. Use the stand for copper — handheld is too unstable for this material. Polished copper may need two passes.

Sterling silver marks with a subtle dark oxidised finish. The LP4's portability makes it useful for hallmarking and personalising at craft fairs and jewellery exhibitions without needing a fixed studio setup. Always test on scrap silver first.

Gentle marking on gold-filled pieces at low power. Test on a hidden area first — too much power damages the gold layer. The LP4's small spot size makes it suitable for fine jewellery marking. Handheld mode useful for marking rings and bangles in situ at jewellery shows.

Dark oxide mark on carbon steel — great for tool marking, knife blades, and industrial parts. The LP4 is popular with tradespeople who need to mark their tools with names or ID numbers on-site. Permanent marks that survive harsh use.

Removes powder coat to reveal bare metal. The LP4 can engrave tumblers using its rotary attachment accessory. Slower to set up than a dedicated desktop laser but the portability means you can bring it to events and personalise tumblers on the spot.

Dark mark on brass. The LP4 handles brass well for on-site personalisation of trophies, plaques, and hardware. Mount on the stand for flat items. Handheld mode works for vertical surfaces like door plates and equipment panels.

Colour marking on titanium — gold and bronze tones at 1200mm/min. Slower speed gives warmer colours (gold/bronze), faster gives cooler tones (blue/purple). The LP4's app has a colour marking preset for titanium. Best used on the stand for consistent results.

The LP4 is a handheld fiber laser — set on its stand for stationary marking. Black oxide mark on brushed stainless at 80%. The app controls speed and power via preset profiles. Ideal for marking items too large to fit in a desktop laser. Permanent, dishwasher-safe result.

Dark oxidation mark on raw brass. Good for small-batch jewellery and trophies. Portable setup is handy for on-site personalisation.

Removes anodize coating — bright contrast on black anodized dog tags and keychains. Fast and portable.

Portable fiber laser. Black oxidation mark on brushed stainless. Ideal for small items and jewellery personalisation. Compact galvo head gives very sharp detail.

What materials can the LaserPecker 4 engrave or cut?

The LaserPecker 4 has community-tested settings for Slate, Stainless Steel Tumbler, Stainless Steel Knife Blade, Stainless Steel Business Card, Aluminum Dog Tag, Stainless Steel Keychain, Bare Aluminum, Powder Coated Aluminum, and 16 more. Results vary by material batch, focus, and ambient conditions — always test on scrap first.

Is the LaserPecker 4 compatible with LightBurn?

The LaserPecker 4 uses LaserPecker. LightBurn compatibility may be possible via a community-built device profile.

Can the LaserPecker 4 mark bare metal without any coating?

Yes. Fiber lasers mark stainless steel, brass, copper, titanium, and anodized aluminium directly — no Cermark or marking spray needed. This is the main advantage of fiber over CO₂ or diode machines for metal personalisation.
