Engraving cutting boils down to speed : power. So if you break things down to actual units of measure watts:ips, you'll find that you can ballpark settings pretty accurately regardless of laser. I've never believed in "my laser is unique so my settings are different". The same thing has been said forever in the car world and it's simply not the truth. There is a shred of truth to it, but for the most part 10 of the same laser are going to be more alike than not.
With all that said, I can't speak specifically to how Chinese lasers control their power and speed. As stated in this thread, it seems they are a bit unpredictable and lack a linear result that you see from Western/DC type lasers.
