Industrial designers are increasingly turning to laser cutting technology when developing new products. The use of computerized drawing files makes it easier to make changes quickly and cheaply. Laser cutting is accurate, fast and high quality, and can work on a wide array of materials (plastic, wood, leather, etc.). During the development process, lasers can be used to make just one copy for analysis. Laser cutting can also be used for branding a product or engraving its exterior. Acoustic ceilings, signage and lighting are all areas where lasers can be useful.

Key Takeaways:

• Accuracy is maintained through the use of computerized drawing files and thin laser beams.
• Laser cutting can be used with plastic, wood, metal, glass, fabric, paper and other materials.
• Laser cutting can be used on a product’s exterior and to burn a brand logo into a product.

“In many cases the importance of the appearance or uniqueness of the product are key factors that encourage the use of this technology.”
