Quoted statements

The cited sources document conditions for painted tile. They apply to every painted tile row CutChart publishes.

  • Ventilation: Smoke or smells may be produced during laser engraving and cutting. It is recommended to operate in a well-ventilated environment. (Creality, Creality Falcon2 (12W/22W/40W) User Manual, read 2026-09-21)
  • Ventilation: Ensure that the workspace is well-ventilated so that the generated smoke can be discharged in time. (xTool, S1 Safety First (Important), read 2026-09-21)
  • Fire: It is forbidden to leave it unattended while the machine is working. (Creality, Creality Falcon2 (12W/22W/40W) User Manual, read 2026-09-21)
  • Check the composition: Do not engrave or cut any unknown materials. (xTool, S1 Safety First (Important), read 2026-09-21)
  • Check the composition: To protect your health and the life of your machine, always obtain a MSDS for materials about which you are uncertain. (Epilog Laser, Material Safety and your Laser, read 2026-09-21)

The cited safety pages do not name tile or paint; the Creality Falcon parameter rows print White Tile Painted Black without a paint composition.

What CutChart publishes for this material

The settings reference for painted tile carries these statements beside every row. A row always names the machine it was printed for.

Common questions

Did CutChart test this material?

No. Every statement on this page is quoted from the publisher named beside it, with the document title and the date CutChart read it. CutChart has purchased no machine and run no test.

Why does a material have no settings table?

CutChart publishes a settings row only when a sourced material-safety record exists for the material. A material whose cited publisher says not to laser it gets a warning and no settings, whatever its laser family.

What does the review date mean?

Each record states the day CutChart last verified its quoted statements against the publisher document and the day that verification expires. Re-reading a source after its expiry window is a scheduled job, not a claim about the publisher.
