Frequently asked questions
What speed should I use to engrave 3mm Clear Acrylic on the NEJE Max 4 E40?
The top-rated community setting uses 2500 mm/min at 45% power. 10W-class diode baseline — consistent with other 10W diode machines in the settings database (Sculpfun S9, Ortur Laser Master 3, xTool M1). Always test on scrap first; individual units vary.
How many passes does the NEJE Max 4 E40 need to cut 3mm Clear Acrylic?
Settings here range from 1 to 4 passes. Multiple passes give a cleaner edge but increase the risk of material shift: always pin or tape your material flat before running.
Do I need air assist for 3mm Clear Acrylic on the NEJE Max 4 E40?
Yes: 1 of the 2 settings here specify air assist on. It clears smoke and debris from the cut line, improves edge quality, and reduces fire risk especially during cutting.
