What processes can I perform with laser cutting?
WITH LASER CUTTING, YOU CAN PERFORM 3 TYPES OF OPERATIONS.
Description
CO2 laser cutting is a widely used and versatile processing technology that allows for high-precision results in various applications. Specifically, with CO2 laser cutting, you can perform three types of operations: cutting, scratching, and engraving.
Cutting
Cutting involves slicing the material into sheets according to the drawn path. Thanks to the laser’s precision, it is possible to achieve perfectly straight and clean edges without the need for subsequent finishing.
Scratching
Scratching is a surface operation that follows the drawn path, creating a mark on the material’s surface. This type of operation can be used to create designs or texts without necessarily cutting the material. Scratching is particularly suitable for making signs, labels, or decorations on wooden, plexiglass, or steel objects.
Engraving
Engraving involves marking an area of the material by “burning” it. Unlike scratching, engraving creates a filled area rather than simple outlines. This type of operation is particularly suitable for making plaques, medals, and decorations on wood, steel, or plastic objects.
CUT
Cut the material second
the designed path
SCRATCH
Makes a shallow mark following the drawn path
ENGRAVE
It engraves the areas “in focus”.

In any case, it is important to specify that to achieve high-precision results with CO2 laser cutting, you need to differentiate the colors of the lines in the file or design, associating them with the different operations.
This way, the laser will be able to recognize the different tasks to be performed, ensuring maximum efficiency and precision in processing the material.
In conclusion, CO2 laser cutting is a very versatile and reliable technology that allows for various types of operations on a wide range of materials. Thanks to the laser’s precision, it is possible to achieve high-quality and well-finished results without the need for additional processing or finishing.

EXTRA OPERATIONS AVAILABLE
ADHESIVE ON THE BACK
Strong double-sided adhesive will be applied before cutting the parts.
This extra option has been developed to offer our customers a complete, ready-to-use solution, ideal for a wide range of applications, both internal and external.
Why choose double-sided tape on the back?
Our double-sided adhesive backing service turns your designs into adhesive finished products, ready to apply immediately after cutting. This not only saves time in the finishing process but also ensures perfect adhesion for every application. Whether it’s signage, wall decorations, stencils or any other element that requires secure and long-lasting adhesion, our double-sided adhesive is the optimal solution.
Advantages:
Practicality: Your lasercut pieces will arrive already supplied with double-sided tape, eliminating the need for manual post-cut applications.
Durability: We select an excellent double-sided adhesive for internal and external double-sided materials suitable for both internal and external applications, guaranteeing a strong and resistant hold over time.
Precision: The application of the double-sided adhesive is carried out before laser cutting, ensuring perfect coverage without smudges.
Versatility: Our service is suitable for all materials and thicknesses present in the configurator, offering customized solutions for each project.
