Laser engraver parts include but are not limited to:

Laser Source - The core component that generates the laser beam for engraving. It can be a CO2 laser, fiber laser, or other types depending on the application.

Laser Tube or Diode - For CO2 lasers, the tube contains a gas mixture that is excited to produce the laser beam. For fiber lasers, it's a diode that generates the initial light.

Mirrors and Lenses - These components direct and focus the laser beam onto the workpiece. They ensure the beam is precisely aimed and of the desired diameter.

Galvo Scanners - High-speed motors that control the movement of the mirrors, enabling fast and accurate beam positioning.

Power Supply and Control Electronics - Provide the necessary electricity to operate the laser and its components, as well as control functions like beam modulation and machine movement.

Worktable or Bed - The surface where the workpiece is placed for engraving. It may be flat or have additional features like a rotary attachment for engraving cylindrical objects.

Chiller or Cooling System - Keeps the laser tube or diode cool during operation to prevent overheating.

Exhaust System - Removes fumes and particles generated during engraving to maintain a clean work environment.

Software - Controls the laser engraver, allowing users to design and execute engraving jobs.
Frame or Housing - The structural component that holds all the other parts together and provides a stable base for the machine.
