Architectural model making
Laser cutting and engraving of wood, cardboard and plastic parts. With a laser you can create detailed 3D models, house models, presentation, competition and functional models.
How can a laser cutter be used in architectural model making?
You can laser cut and engrave the smallest components for architectural model making and model making in the toy industry. Fast and precise laser cutting of textiles, plastic, wood, veneer, MDF, PMMA, cardboard, paper, foam, polystyrene, film, acrylic, plastic and much more.
Draw your shapes as usual in a CAD program or your graphics program. The laser cutting machine works with maximum precision and cuts your components for detailed building models, model railways, true-to-scale reproductions of various constructions or architectural models. You can use the parts immediately without post processing – and without burrs, dust or swarf. The cuts are precise and clean.

What are the advantages of a laser machine in architectural model making? A comparison of technologies.
What you can do with a laser in model making.
How to calculate the cost of using a laser machine.
When acquiring a laser cutter for schools or Makerspaces, the investment costs need to be broken down in terms of both users and service life. These examples show how to calculate the costs of using the laser so that the costs are covered.
Investment and operating costs are included in the calculation.
Which laser cutter is suitable for architectural model making?
Precise cutting with the Speedy series offers the ideal solution for creating 3D models. Cutting acrylic, wood, paper or textiles is effortless.

What our customers say.
"Regional connections are important to us; they enable us to provide rapid service on site and support an active exchange of information about new developments and improvements.”

Head of Institute, Johannes Kepler University: Institute for Experimental Physics, Department of Soft Matter Physics
“Having a Trotec laser engraving machine has been a really good drawcard in getting people into the Makerspace. When they learn more about it and realize how versatile and useful it is, they often stay here a lot longer and build projects around it.”
