Before your work begins
Operational Process
Prepare & Position the Material
Start by peeling off the protective film from the top surface of the acrylic sheet—the side that faces the laser. This prevents burn marks or smoke stains from forming on the visible surface during cutting.
You can leave the bottom film on to protect the underside while it rests on the workbed. Once ready, place the acrylic flat on the laser cutter’s bed and secure it with pins or magnets.
Import & Adjust the Design File
Open your preferred laser software, such as LaserMaker, and import the design file. Adjust the size and layout as needed, making sure the designs are evenly spaced to make the most of your acrylic sheet.
For the laser cutting layers, pay extra attention to the minimum power setting. If the min power is too low, the corners may not cut through; if the min power is too high, the corners may not look clean.
Set the Correct Laser Focus
Accurate focusing is critical for achieving smooth, clean cuts on acrylic. If your machine has auto focus, use it for quick setup. For manual focusing, lower the laser head with the focus stick until it touches the acrylic surface at the correct angle.
Start Cutting
Before starting the job, run the Frame or Border function in your software. The laser head will trace the outline of the design with a visible guide light, helping confirm that the design fits within your acrylic sheet and avoids wasting material.
Once everything is adjusted, start the job and monitor the process as it runs. Watch for excessive smoke, movement of the acrylic sheet, or any warning alarms, and never leave the laser unattended while it’s operating.
Post Processing
Once the cutting is complete, remove the acrylic carefully from the laser bed. Peel off any remaining protective film on the back side to reveal the clean, polished surface.
Check the edges and surface, then clean away any dust or residue. Your hand-in-hand decoration is ready to display or gift.
Come and Try!
Bring a little warmth and elegance into your space! Try making your own hand-in-hand acrylic decoration and create a small token of connection for yourself, friends, or loved ones. This simple project is not only a fun way to practice your laser cutting skills but also a beautiful piece to display or gift.
