About ABS Plastic Settings for the Monport Monport 60W MOPA

The Monport Monport 60W MOPA cuts ABS Plastic cleanly at 1500 mm/s with 20% power. Always test on a scrap piece first — every machine is slightly different, and variables like tube age, lens condition, and material batch can shift results.

For ABS Plastic, the key variables to dial in are speed and power. If the laser isn't cutting through cleanly, slow down or add a pass before pushing power higher — excessive power causes charring and wider kerfs. Air assist is highly recommended for wood and organic materials to clear smoke and protect the lens.

Once you find settings that work, save them in Laser Lab to build your personal settings library. The AI predictor uses your calibrated results to suggest starting points for new materials automatically — so the more you log, the smarter it gets.
