Introduction

The working area of a laser cutting machine is a critical factor in determining the size and scope of projects it can undertake. A 1300*900mm working area offers ample space for cutting large pieces or multiple smaller items simultaneously. But what materials can such a machine cut? Let's delve into the capabilities of a CO2 laser cutter with this generous workspace.

Co2 laser cutting machine uses co2 glass laser tube for cutting nonmetal materials such as: Acrylic,architectural models,wood, MDF, bamboo,plywood, chipboard, die board, card borad, cloth, clothing,fabric,fur, jeans, plastic, plexi glass,leather, rubber plate,paper,

1300*900mm is very popular working area for co2 laser cutting machine. It is because many nonmetal sheets are near this size of double this size.

Understanding the CO2 Laser Cutter

CO2 laser cutting machines are versatile tools that use a beam of light to cut, engrave, or mark materials. The power of the laser, measured in watts, and the size of the working area are key factors in determining what the machine can cut.

About laser power, the machine can be equipped with laser power 80W,100W,150W,220W. If you want one machine for both engraving and cutting, 100W is the most suitable choice.
