Trotec lasers are widely used for cutting acrylic material, but can also process other plastics such as polycarbonate, polypropylene and polyethylene.
Best results are obtained in cutting materials up to 1mm thick. Add one of the Trotec exhaust systems to enhance the process and manage dust and fumes associated with the cutting process for a complete, environmentally friendly plastic cutting package.
Compared with traditional techniques laser cutting plastics offers the following benefits:
- Fast cutting speed
- Flexibility due to the non-contact nature of lasers
- Minimimal or no extra tooling
- Seal edges in the cutting process
- Nesting software to minimize waste
- Cost effective - even in small production runs
