Lasers Leap Across Industries

During my time in high school, I worked at a scrapbook shop that specialized in laser cut outs. Actually, the term “laser cuts” was in the name itself. We had all of the other scrapbook amenities as well, scrapbook glue and stickers, we even offered classes every once in a while where people could bring in their projects and work on them in a fun space, but the majority of what we sold were laser cutouts that people could then paste into their desired scrapbook design.

I was just a lowly cashier, so all I did was restock, take inventory and ring people up. Needless to say, my job was thrilling. The coolest part of my job (aside from the restocking) was when I got to watch our big laser cutting machine work. It could take a whole poster sized sheet of paper and transform it into tiny cutouts of roses and our local high schools logo in the blink of an eye. It was amazing, and we had it programmed to create just about anything you could ever want to scrapbook.

Just like a laser die cutting service, this laser machine could handle very detailed cutouts, and was able to create complicated and complex designs. They are able to offer quick turnaround time because of the speed of the process. It is a very cost effective process, and reduces human error and time waste. A large number of industries can benefit from using a laser cutting system, and range from the scrapbook cutting world to the textile industry.

For the industrial needs, laser die cutting services are available for many different materials besides paper, including marble, wood, glass and stone. The laser will transform these materials from slabs of unusable product to the specific design and shape that is desired.
