How to Laser Cut Acrylic - Cast & Extruded
Based on using a 50 watt CO2 laser, I use the following values for cutting acrylic: Focus on surface. Low to medium air assist. Good airflow across the surface. 3mm Acrylic: 17mm/s at 58% Power. 4mm Acrylic: 13mm/s at 58% Power. 5mm Acrylic: 10mm/s at 58% Power. 6mm Acrylic: 8.5mm/s at 58% Power. 8mm Acrylic: 6.5mm/s at 58% Power.
