One of the most common questions we receive from customers is: What materials can FLUX Lasers cut and engrave? To answer this, let’s explore laser cutting technology from a machining perspective and look at the different types of lasers and their typical applications.

6 Must Consider Before Getting Your Laser

Laser Sources

Each laser source is tailored for specific materials. Select the one that best fits your material requirements.

Materials

Select the laser wattage based on your material thickness. Higher wattage cuts thicker materials.

Software

FLUX lasers feature intuitive, user-friendly software that's easy to use, even without a design background

Consumable Requirements

Beyond laser materials, each laser cutter has specific consumable needs depending on the laser source. This is a key consideration before purchasing.

Applications

Over the past ten years, FLUX has excelled in creative industries like laser cutting, custom design, and prototyping, amassing a vast user base.

Add-ons

Even though FLUX Lasers handles most creations, special shapes like cylinders, cones, handled tumblers, or extra-large, extra-thick materials require FLUX Laser Add-ons for optimal support.

Match Your Needs with the Right Laser Source

Diode Laser

Diode lasers are ideal for engraving and cutting materials such as wood, leather, and paper. They offer a low-maintenance, beginner-friendly solution with no need for consumables. However, they are not suitable for cutting transparent materials; for such applications, a CO2 laser is recommended.

Infrared Laser

Infrared lasers are designed for engraving pure metals, including gold, silver, and copper, and are also effective on materials like dark acrylic and ABS. This makes them well-suited for professionals engaged in metalworking projects, such as jewelry engraving and custom dog tags.

CO2 Laser

CO2 lasers, known for their high power density and precision, are versatile enough to engrave on a wide range of materials, including wood, leather, paper, and transparent materials like acrylic and glass. This makes them an excellent choice for both industrial and creative applications.

Fiber Laser

Fiber lasers offer precise, stable marking and engraving on metals, delivering high-quality results with minimal maintenance—ideal for modern metalworking.

Materials

Align the laser source with your specific creative needs.
