ProtoCafe offers laser cutting, marking, and engraving services on an amazing variety of materials with high detail and accuracy. Our laser systems produce custom, one-off items to identical mass-produced parts
- Cutting: the laser beam cuts completely through material along the designated path, creating crisp, high quality edges.
- Marking: the laser beam modifies the material surface, creating permanent marks without removing material or impacting surface integrity.
- Engraving: the laser beam vaporizes material to a user-controlled depth, creating a flat surface with a high quality and consistent finish.
For a quote, we require the desired quantity, a vector file (.DWG/.DXF/.AI), and the material of choice. We are more than happy to experiment on exotic materials supplied by clients!
