Laser cutting is a quick way to cut out shapes from sheets of acrylic. You can get really creative with this technique as long as your laser has enough power to cut through the material. This video shows how I use my laser cutter to make acrylic tips for acorn cups. I find that using a thicker sheet of acrylic makes them easier to work with.
The laser cuts away around the outside edge of the shape leaving a thin layer of acrylic surrounding the piece. Then I simply remove the excess by sanding down the sides before applying an adhesive to secure it to the cup.
Laser Engraving Acrylic Tips are precision tools used to create intricate designs into your acrylics. Laser cutting allows us to create shapes that would not be possible using traditional methods. Laser-cutter can cut pieces up to 1/4 inch thick with no need for heat!
These high-quality laser-cutters are the perfect way to add some unique style to your paintings! Available in various colors and sizes, these beautiful parts can easily fit any size piece of acrylic.
Acrylic sheet material is an ideal substrate for laser engraving. It is a thermoplastic that can be easily cut, shaped, and engraved with a laser machine. Laser engraving produces a smooth, frosted finish that is permanent and scratch-resistant.
Acrylic is available in a variety of colors, including clear, frosted, and opaque. It can be purchased in sheets, rods, or tubes. Clear acrylic is the best choice for laser engraving because it allows the laser light to pass through and produce a detailed engraving.
Acrylic is a versatile material that can be used for a wide range of applications. It is often used for signs, displays, and packaging. It can also be used for architectural applications, such as skylights and windows.
Acrylic is durable and weather-resistant, making it ideal for outdoor applications. It is also lightweight and shatter-resistant.
When engraving acrylic, it is important to use the proper settings on your laser machine. The power and speed settings will vary depending on the thickness of the material.
Thicker sheets of acrylic will require more power and a slower speed, while thinner sheets can be engraved at a higher power and speed.
It is also important to use the proper type of lens on your laser machine. The focal length of the lens will determine the size of the engraving.
For smaller engravings, a shorter focal length lens should be used. For larger engravings, a longer focal length lens will produce a better result.
When engraving, it is important to use a mask or template to protect the area around the engraving. This will help to prevent the engraving from spreading.
Acrylic is a great material for laser engraving and can be used for a wide variety of applications. With the proper settings, it is possible to produce detailed and permanent engravings.
LASER CUTTING AND ENGRAVING IN ACRYLIC
LASER CUT
Acrylic: Laser cutting has several advantages: a very clean and precise cut. The process causes there to be very little heat, which helps us avoid the deformation of the material. We can cut up to 25mm of this material and our work area is 1300×2500, giving us the opportunity to carry out larger works.
Other materials that can be cut: vinyl, cardboard, touch skin, blanket, denim, corduroy, graboplay, foam board, leather, foami, coconut leaf, nylon, etc.
LASER ENGRAVING
Acrylic: Laser Engraving allows acrylic engraving with a high resolution regardless of the size of the pieces or the depth, it is always with excellent quality without deforming the image. Giving a white finish, if it is transparent, it also depends on the colors of the acrylic. The advantage we have is our 1300×2500 working area.
Other materials that can be engraved: glass, stone, tile, marble, anodized aluminum, etc.
CO2 LASER
Low-density materials 0-3mm: fabric, paper, cardboard, Styrofoam, etc. Medium-density materials 3-6mm: felt, MDF, acrylic, pet, etc. High-density materials intermediate thickness 7-10mm: acrylic, MDF, solid wood, plywood, etc. High-density materials higher intermediate thickness 11-18mm: acrylic, etc. Acrylic up to 25mm All this in a 1.30m x 2.50m cutting bed All this in a 1.30m x 2.50m cutting bed.
LASER CUTTING AND ENGRAVING ON ACRYLIC AND WOOD
Description
Laser cutting allows us great precision at high speed. With lasers you can repeat cuts capably and precisely, making the most of the material and without distortion, from prototyping to mass production of specific products.
Laser-cut
It is ideal for bringing complex ideas or projects to reality. Laser cutting can be done in materials such as: Wood, Plastics, Acrylics, Fabric, Leather, Paper, Cardboard, among others.
laser engraved
Laser engraving is a more comfortable and permanent alternative to printing in different areas and materials. Whether for advertising, labeling, signage, trophies or others, laser engraving can be done on a variety of materials such as: Wood, Plastics, Acrylics, Fabric, Leather, Paper, Cardboard, among others.
