Laser Sign Cutting FAQs
Get answers to all your frequently asked questions about printed wall graphics and decals vinyl lettering and decals.
What is laser cutting?
Laser cutting is a precise method of cutting or engraving materials using a high-powered laser beam. The laser focuses intense heat onto the material, melting, burning, or vaporising it to create clean and intricate cuts. It is widely used for industrial, commercial, and creative applications due to its accuracy and ability to cut complex shapes.
What is laser cut signage?
Laser cut signage is custom-made signage created using a laser cutter to achieve intricate designs, sharp edges, and high levels of detail. This technique is often used to produce unique business signs, logos, and decorative lettering from materials like acrylic, wood, metal, and more. Laser cut signs can be illuminated, layered, or combined with other design elements for a professional finish.
How does laser cutting work?
Laser cutting works by directing a focused laser beam onto a material’s surface, generating heat that precisely cuts through it. The process is controlled by a computer-guided system, allowing for high accuracy and repeatability. The laser moves along a programmed path, cutting or engraving based on the design specifications. Depending on the material, different laser settings, such as power and speed, are adjusted to achieve the desired result.
What materials can you cut with a laser?
- Acrylic & Plastics – Ideal for signage, displays, and decorative items
- Wood (Plywood, MDF, Hardwood, etc.) – Used for custom designs, models, and furniture
- Paper & Cardboard – Great for packaging, invitations, and stencils
- Leather & Fabric – Perfect for fashion, accessories, and custom branding
- Metals (with fibre lasers) – Used for industrial parts, engravings, and branding
What should you not cut with a laser cutter?
Certain materials should not be cut with a laser cutter due to safety hazards:
- PVC & Vinyl – Releases toxic chlorine gas when cut
- Polycarbonate – Produces hazardous fumes and burns poorly
- Foam containing chlorine – Can emit harmful gases
- Glass & Stones – Can crack or shatter instead of cutting cleanly
- Materials with unknown coatings – Some coatings may contain harmful chemicals
How do you prepare artwork for laser cutting?
Preparing artwork for laser cutting requires precision to ensure clean and accurate results. Start by creating a vector-based design using software like Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, or Inkscape, as laser cutters follow vector paths rather than pixel-based images. Use hairline or thin stroke widths to define cut lines and distinguish them from engraved areas. Ensure your artwork is in the correct file format, typically SVG, DXF, AI, or PDF, and check that all text is converted to outlines to avoid font issues. It’s also essential to set the correct scale and material thickness, as different materials require different settings. Finally, remove any unnecessary overlapping lines to prevent double-cutting, which can burn or weaken the material. Proper preparation helps achieve precise, high-quality laser-cut designs.
