Galvo Technology: Speed Without Compromise

Conventional laser cutters move the entire laser head on a mechanical rail system. The mass that needs to be accelerated limits the speed — especially on complex contours with many direction changes.

Our galvo laser works differently: a high-performance Coherent 250W laser source combined with two ultra-fast galvanometer mirrors directs the beam with magnetic precision. With virtually no moving mass, the system achieves cutting speeds many times faster than conventional systems.

Why High Speed Matters

High Throughput

Process thousands of parts per hour. Ideal for recurring production runs where conventional lasers become a bottleneck.

Lower Unit Cost

Faster processing = lower cost per part. The galvo advantage grows with volume — the more you produce, the more you save.

Roll-to-Roll

Continuous processing from roll material. No manual sheet feeding, no operator intervention. Load the roll, start production.

No Tooling Costs

Unlike die-cutting, laser requires no physical tools. Change contours instantly — from CAD file to finished part in minutes.

Typical Applications

When speed, volume and precision need to align

High-Volume Contour Cutting

Recurring production runs of contour-cut parts from roll material. Transfer patches, labels, reflective elements, functional parts — anything that needs to be cut fast and accurate in high quantities.

Perforation & Micro-Cutting

Perforations, micro-slots, pre-cut lines and tear-off edges. The galvo system excels at rapid, repetitive patterns that would take hours on conventional machines.

Rapid Prototyping

Need samples fast? No tooling, no setup — from CAD to cut part in minutes. Ideal for development cycles where iteration speed matters.

Reflective Materials

Retroreflective films and materials that require thermal cutting. The 250W laser handles thick, multi-layer reflective substrates that lower-power systems struggle with.

Complete Process Chain In-House

We don't just cut — we offer a full production chain. Screen printing, laser cutting, plotter cutting, finishing — all under one roof. No subcontractors, no handoff losses, single-source supply.

When Laser Isn't the Answer

Some materials or contours work better with mechanical cutting. Our 4 Summa tangential plotters with OPOS camera registration handle these cases — same precision, different technology. No job gets turned away.
