These 2 settings cover engrave Slate on the Sculpfun S6 Pro (6W diode laser). Stone engraving is forgiving — the laser ablates the surface without deep penetration, so focus accuracy and DPI matter more than power.

Good white engrave on slate. Invert your image first. Even at 6W the S6 Pro produces satisfying results on slate — it's one of the easiest materials for low-power diodes. Wipe clean with a damp cloth after to reveal contrast.
