Laser Diecutting: A New Approach
With digital printing making a big impact in short-run printing, laser diecutting is helping to close gaps in the finishing department.
In general, materials such as paper, PET, PP, abrasives, and certain types of vinyl cut well on a galvo laser. Clear materials also cut well on lasers if the top substrate to liner material is configured correctly. In terms of the label and packaging markets, most top-coat materials range from 1.8 to 2.5 mil thick. The cutting speed in relation to the thickness of the substrate will vary, although this is usually more relevant where the material is thicker than 10.0 mil.
