The processing quality of micro texture on the end face of the sealing ring plays a crucial role in the performance of mechanical seals. Laser engraving is currently one of the commonly used methods for processing textures on end faces. To investigate the influence of laser processing parameters on the depth of texture grooves and the roughness of groove bottoms, a fiber laser marking machine was employed to study the laser processing techniques of silicon carbide sealing rings. Using the method of controlled variables, we sequentially adjusted parameters such as laser Q-frequency, laser power, marking speed, filling spacing, marking times, fill angle, fill type, to analyze the influence of different process parameters on the quality of texture processing. The results indicate that various parameters have varying degrees of influence on the processing of microtextures, with key parameters being laser Q-frequency, laser power, and marking times, followed by marking speed, filling spacing, and filling angle, while filling type has a relatively weak effect.
