Step by step

Step 1

Step 2

Step 2: Laser processing

For the best results, we recommend that you use the acrylic laser cutting grid table as it avoids back reflections on the material. Place the acrylic sheet onto your laser table and cover the remaining areas of the table to maximise the exhaust power. Mark and cut the design from TroGlass.

Laser Parameters:

Colour	Process	Power (%)	Speed (%)	ppi/Hz
black	engrave FLP	74	40	75000
red	cut CO₂	85	0.5	20000

Passes	Air Assist	Z-Offset	Advanced
1	off	-	-
1	on	-	-

Info:

A 2.85" flexx lens has a lower intensity on the material than a 2" lens, which is why we haven't used the standard TroGlass laser parameters.

Step 3

Step 3: Post-processing

Clean the material's surface with a soft cloth and place the zebra into the base.
