I should probably do a video on just the texturing tool however there are plenty on the web if you want to investigate further. It’s a fun tool to use and you can repeat patterns, howeve

What is Laser Texturing? Laser texturing is a surface modification process that uses a laser beam to create controlled micro or nano-scale patterns on a material’s surface. What it does? The laser locally heats, melts, or vaporizes the surface, forming textures such as: • Grooves • Dimples • Ridges • Micro-holes • Roughened patterns. These features are created with high precision and repeatability, without physical contact. Why it is used? Laser texturing is applied to improve surface performanc
