Cutting and engraving paper, paperboard and cardboard with a laser

The process of cutting paper and cardboard with a laser offers a number of creative options for customising, personalising or refining stationery. Whether unusual Christmas cards or greetings cards, individual business cards or packaging with delicate, laser-cut contours – the laser machines from JustLaser are outstandingly well suited for cutting and engraving paper, cardboard and paperboard. Even the smallest details can be produced quickly and easily. The contactless process is gentle on the delicate material. Benefit from the convincing results of JustLaser laser machines!

In addition to cutting paper and cardboard, the laser machines from JustLaser are also used for print enhancement in order to make surfaces more interesting and give them a “certain something”. There are the following distinct processes:

• Laser perforation: in this process, tiny holes are made with the laser to produce a special look and feel on the paper or cardboard.
• Laser punching: in this method, the material is vaporised using a laser to produce a precise cut – similar to
• Laser marking: in this process, the heat of a laser produces a high-contrast change in the surface of the material

Materials of any kind can be processed directly using the CO2 laser machines from JustLaser. In contrast to common methods like punching, there is no material crushing as the process of cutting paper and cardboard with a laser is contactless. Additionally, materials do not need to be fixed in place, which provides the material with additional protection. However, it is recommended that you buy a vacuum table so that uneven materials will also lie flat on the table while being processed.

Detailed precision cuts and the finest patterns can be produced better with the laser cutters from JustLaser than with any other method. For precise results that provide you with all the space you need to live out your creative ideas! Create your designs in your usual graphics program and send it to your JustLaser Laser Engraver via print command for immediate prototype or serial production.
