Laser cutting (laser cut)

Laser technology makes it possible to cut even delicate materials that are better not handled by a CNC machine or waterjet cutting. We process a variety of materials. Wood and acrylic are the most popular, but textiles like silk or cotton can also be cut wonderfully. Paper and cardboard can be cut without charring up to a certain thickness. In addition, very intricate paper cutting is possible. Leather, linen, fleece - all no problem. Stamps can also be cut wonderfully after engraving.

In product manufacturing, laser cutting offers interesting possibilities that integrate perfectly into the workflow. For example, name tags can be read from a table and engraved, and then these tags are cut into shape with the same laser. Laser cutting precisely vaporizes the material and thus separates it. Even a pre-applied adhesive film is cut very precisely, so the tag only needs to be cleaned and a finished name tag, prepared for adhesion, is produced.

 

Laser cutting of organic materials such as wood, acrylic, and leather with a CO2 laser offers many advantages for creating great shapes and designs. The CO2 laser works by focusing a powerful laser beam onto the material to be cut or engraved. The laser beam melts and vaporizes the material at the point of impact to create the desired shapes and designs.

Here are some of the benefits of CO2 laser cutting:

1. Precision: A CO2 laser can work with great precision, making it possible to cut very complex shapes and designs. The laser beam can be positioned with an accuracy of up to 0.1 mm, allowing for highly detailed designs and patterns to be cut.

2. Material variety: CO2 lasers can cut a variety of materials, including wood, acrylic, leather, paper, cardboard, textiles, and many other organic materials. This makes it possible to produce a wide range of products such as artworks, jewelry, decorative items, enclosures, and much more.

3. Efficiency: CO2 laser cutting is very efficient because the laser beam can cut very quickly. This saves time and enables higher productivity.

4. Repeatability: Another advantage of CO2 laser cutting is the ability to repeat the same design again and again with the highest precision. This is particularly useful in the production of series products.

5. Cleanliness: Since the laser beam melts and vaporizes the material, no chips or dust are produced, as is the case with traditional cutting. This means that CO2 laser cutting is very clean and tidy.

Overall, CO2 laser cutting offers many advantages for creating great shapes and designs on organic materials. It is an effective and precise process that has a wide range of applications in many industries.
