Step 1 — Material What do you want to edit? Each laser machine operates with a specific wavelength that is tailored to the material type.

Non-metals Wood, plastic, acrylic, leather, textiles, paper, cardboard, rubber, glass…

Metal Steel, aluminium, copper, gold, silver, titanium, iron…

Metal welding or cleaning Laser welding or surface cleaning / rust removal

Step 2 — Editing What do you want to do with the material? CO2 lasers are suitable for most non-metals. For glass and fine plastic, UV is better.

Cutting and / or engraving Wood, acrylic, leather, textile, cardboard, rubber, paper, foam…

Fine engraving – glass, plastic or PCBs High precision without heat effect.

Step 3 — Use How intensively will you use the machine? This determines which CO2 machine suits you in terms of speed and working surface.

Hobby / home use Occasional projects, low speed, small series.

Professional daily use Commercial, regular, or daily deployment.

Extra large workpieces Objects larger than 130 × 90 cm.

High-speed serial engraving Large numbers, galvo technology.

Cutting both non-metals and metal One machine for organic materials and metal.

Step 4 — Work surface How large is the desired work surface? The work surface determines the maximum dimensions you can process at once.

Up to 60 × 40 cm Standard size for most applications.

Up to 130 × 90 cm or larger Larger plates, panels, or objects.

Step 2 — Editing What do you want to do with the metal? Engraving and cutting require different types of machines.

Engraving / marking Serial numbers, logos, barcodes, traceability.

Cutting sheets Precisely cut flat sheet materials to size.

Cutting tubes or profiles Round tubes, square tubes, profiles.

Step 3 — Model Open or closed model? Open models offer more flexibility; closed models provide maximum safety without additional measures.

Open model Maximum freedom of movement. Personal safety measures required.

Closed model Laser only starts when the door is closed. Maximum safety.

Portable Engraving on location or on large objects.

Step 4 — Volume How intensive is the usage?

Occasionally / every now and then Not daily, smaller series.

Serial / daily production High output, continuous effort.

Step 3 — Volume What is the production volume?

Prototyping / small series Testing, product development, small quantities.

Serial production High volumes, daily deployment.

Step 2 — Application What would you like to do?

Metal welding Precision laser welding, minimal distortion.

Cleaning / rust removal Remove rust, paint, or oxidation.

UV Lasers UV Laser Machines UV lasers operate at a shorter wavelength (355 nm) — virtually no heat effect. Ideal for glass, transparent plastic, and high-precision PCBs.
