Laser technology in crafting involves using a focused laser beam to cut, engrave, or etch materials like wood, metal, and acrylic.
For wood, the laser vaporizes the surface to create detailed patterns or cutouts with precision. With metal, a higher power laser can cut through thicker sheets or engrave by removing surface layers, often requiring additional processes like oxidation for contrast. This technology allows for intricate designs, high accuracy, and repeatability, making it ideal for both artistic and industrial applications.
