Arrange an online demoWith typically twice the speed and lifespan of competing products, our CO2 based acrylic laser cutters and engravers are used throughout the industry and relied on by some of the largest suppliers in the market. An acrylic laser cutter machine can be modular and easily integrated into any existing manufacturing process. They need minimal human intervention to operate, allowing a machine to produce at a fast rate without interruption.
As a non-contact technology, laser cutting acrylic does not cause secondary damage to the object being marked, producing perfectly clean cuts or marks free of damage. Compared to traditional engraving methods, an acrylic laser engraver is extremely accurate and the material does not undergo stress.
With our well-honed systems speed is a given, so you can always be confident in delivering your cutting or engraving products on time.
To laser engrave acrylic you use a high-intensity laser to raise the temperature of an incredibly thin layer of the plastic, causing it to melt and form a modified surface. Higher intensity CO2 lasers can be used to cut through the surface of the plastic.
Acrylic sheets are impact resistant and shatterproof making them perfect for any use. Furthermore, as acrylic is lighter and more durable than glass with transparent, mirrored and coloured acrylics options; they are ideal for hygiene safety panels, splashbacks, signs, doors, windows, models, parts, products and much more. An acrylic laser engraver can create the kind of effect you can see in the image on the right.
Laser cut acrylic sheets are extremely fast to manufacture, even for the toughest plastic types. Complex contours do not prove to be an issue for our laser cutting machines. The edges of laser cut plastic come out cleanly, with no need for post-processing.
