80 Watt CO2/20 Watt fiber laser with 2.85" flexx lens
For this sample you should use any laser machine from the Speedy flexx series.
Important:
Use the acrylic cutting grid table
Leave the protective foil on the back of the material during cutting. It protects the acrylic from scratches.

Step 2: Laser process
For best results, we recommend using the acrylic cutting grid table. It avoids back reflections on the material. Position the acrylic sheet into your laser and cover the rest of the table to maximise the exhaust power. Mark and cut the design out of TroGlass.

Info:
The 2.85" flexx lens has a lower intensity on the material than the 2" lens. This is why we haven't used the standard laser parameters for TroGlass.
Step 3: Post-processing
Clean the surface with a soft cloth and put the zebra into the base stand.
Inspirations
On dark acrylic you can achieve particularly good results with the fiber laser source of the Speedy flexx.
