Enclosed CO₂ lasers excel at clean cuts and consistent engraving with integrated safety and extraction. They are the go‑to for studios, schools and small production.
Compared to diode machines, they handle clear acrylic and thicker woods with ease, but require more space, higher budgets and occasional maintenance (mirrors, optics, alignment).
Safer operation with closed housing and filtration – ideal for classrooms and workshops.
Crystal‑clear edges on cast acrylic and reliable performance on many plastics and woods.
Common desktop CO₂ sources range from ~40 W to 100 W+. Choose more power for faster cutting of thicker materials.
Observe local safety rules for ventilation and material choice (never cut PVC).
