How you can use a laser machine in packaging design.

You can precisely cut materials for product packaging with a Trotec laser cutter. When it comes to cutting packaging, the laser machine is particularly useful for prototyping or making small batches.

This digital tool takes you from the idea to the finished product in no time at all. Work directly from Adobe Illustrator or Esko ArtiosCAD. There’s no need for manual cutting of the prototypes or long waiting times for cutting dies.

Cutting, perforating or scoring allows you to freely choose both the shape and the material. Your packaging becomes much more than a simple die-cut box.

“Our customer enquiries became increasingly specific and we were looking for a partner who could serve us in the long term. The Trotec SP3000 can cover all applications that are required in lighting technology. Acrylic inlays with very sharp edges can be cut using the laser cutter. In addition, with the SP3000 we can nest geometries in a very material-efficient manner and thus produce parts economically.”

"The laser enabled us to achieve an enormous increase in turnover, as it was only through the laser that we were able to accept the offered acrylic product order. The required product quality without dust inclusions and the required production speed can currently only be achieved with the laser. The SP3000 Laser Cutter thus contributes to the growth of Mister Druck."
