Standard cast acrylic, acrylic sheet and other cast resins usually laser well.
Many products made of plastic, such as light switch panels and many other panels, are laser engraved. Note, however, that with all types of laser engraver, styrene and other thermoformed plastics will melt around the edges of the engraved point and the engraving result may not be sharp enough, so please do not engrave with high power lasers. Requires super sharp edges.

Can Atomstack laser engravers be used to engrave stone, glass and mirrors?

Stone and glass don’t vaporize easily, but with just the right amount of power and speed can achieve excellent results. Having said that, experimentation with samples is recommended.
