Specifications
We operate two laser cutters: one 60 watt machine with a maximum size of 36×24″ and an absolutely massive 75W machine with a maximum work area of 48×36″. Both lasers function over a flat tray or honeycomb cutting table. They use a combination of power and speed to perform their three major tasks of engraving, cutting and scoring down to an extraordinary level of detail. Cut and score lines must be comprised of vector paths, however the engraving functions can utilize both raster and vector elements. The focused beam of light becomes a condensed source of heat to perform all of it’s functions, and the end result is driven by the materials reaction to the heat. Generally the kerf for a laser cut can range from 2-20/1000″ depending on the thickness and density of the material. Please keep in mind that some materials may show signs of dispersed heat.
