A laser cutting machine utilises a laser beam to cut material. The concentrated energy of the beam, when directed onto a material’s surface, can heat, melt, and vaporise the material, allowing for precise and clean cuts.

All types of metals can be cut; as well as wood, paper and cardboard, and some types of plastics, such as acrylic, polyoxymethylene (POM) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). At Subcon Laser, we specialise in metallic materials.
