Handy Tips for Materials

Information about laser cutting materials

Make sure you consider the right material for the job:

For example, acrylic is durable and shatter resistant, but it can scratch. So you wouldn't use it for a coffee table top!

We are happy to advise if you are unsure.

Different timber plywoods will have have different engraving results:

Our timber plywood product pages have information about the different scoring and engraving results.

For instance,

for cork: Cork in sheets of various thicknesses. Cork is suitable for laser cutting and engraving and DIY projects. It is a flexible and porous material.

Colour: brownish tone

Laser Engraving Contrast: very high

Grain: no grain structure

Edge Details: black edge when laser cut

If you need darker engraving, you can offset the laser lends to defocus slightly. This can help improve contrast for low contrast timber.

You can also treat the wood with a mixture of borax and water to get a darker result.

Laser Cutting is perfect for signage, custom gifts, branding, DIY projects & more:

Being a subtractive manufacturing process, you can rapidly prototype or manufacture - much faster than 3D printing!

Laser cutting and engraving is commonly used for Signage, Residential numbers, retail signs, event signage and cake toppers, educational displays, model-making, tabletop gaming tokens and much more!
