Laser cutting works well with acrylics, polypropylene, foam, MDF, plywood, fabric, and paper-based materials. Our machines can also engrave and then laser cut upon completion of engraving.
The most popular laser-cut substrate at Pantographic is acrylic (Plexiglass or Perspex).
The advantage of utilising a laser to cut acrylic is the superior edge finish when compared to other material cutting methods; the edge of the acrylic after cutting is glossy and flame-polished, requiring no further post-processing.
