Desktop lasers are often used for small-scale operations like arts & crafts and hobbyist projects, whereas mid-range and high power laser engravers are for large-scale ventures performed by various business industries. Both are capable of engraving applications such as wood, glass, leather, and acrylic. The mid-range and high power however have better cutting capabilities. Fiber markers ,on the other hand, are designed for metal materials and hard plastics. Fiber markers are more powerful and engrave quicker than desktop and cabinet lasers by concentrating the laser beam into a thinner point.
