Giotto CO2 3 AXES is a cutting/marking system equipped with a 3 axes galvo head and with a sealed laser source. Thanks to a medium/big work size (200x200mm/500x500mm) it enables to mark materials such as marble, anodised aluminium, wood, leather, fabrics, methacrylate etc.
Its main features are fast execution speed and flexibility. Thin materials such as wood, paper, leather, textiles can be both cut and marked. Giotto disposes of a series of options for an easy use.

Paper Blaster , is equipped with an automatic paper feeding system and a paper loader with a loading capacity up to 350mm thickness.
It enables to process paper with a weight from 120 to 300 grams, execution speed up to 1000 cycles/ hour (execution time laser excluded), processable paper formats A5/A4/A3/A3+. It disposes of a red diode pointer for an easy selection of the work area.
The work cycle is automatic and complies with the laser safety standards thanks to a completely guarded work area and safety interlocks, shutters and emergencies.

Paper Blaster, is driven by a Personal Computer and by the software CAM ICARO - Windows. The user can easily change the work parameters such as power, frequency, marking speed so that the requested effect is obtained.
Graphics in different CAD formats(*.plt,*.dxf,*.pcx, *.bmp, *.mcl besides machine formats) can be imported and the text can directly be changed (all the fonts are used).

Paper Laser-Cutting

Paper-cutting has been practiced for over 1,500 years and is a highly respected art form in many cultures.

Traditional Papercutting Styles; The Hand-cut Look. Think how many cultures have hand-cut paper as part of their artistic heritage. (European ,Early American, Scandinavian, Chinese, Japanese...to name a few.) Wonderful styling can be created by deliberately Grafting an artwork to capture one of these handcut looks.

SEI in 1994 introduced the use of lasers for industrial paper cutting systems , making it possible to reproduce highly detailed paper art in large volume.

	Unlike conventional die-cutting, lasercutting requires no physical tools to contact the paper. A focused beam of pure light energy literally vaporizes the fibers. Think of it as an extension of the photographic process, or as a lightprojected image that removes any paper to which it is exposed. Forget every limitation you've ever associated with die-cutting. With laser-cutting, your designs can be fine, very intricate and precisely positioned on the page.

Combined with printing and other embellishments,the effect can be breathtaking. Yet, most of the population has never seen a single piece of laser-cut paper. We, at SEI, believe the most exciting applications are yet to be discovered and are committed to helping interested clients create them.

Looking for a design element for paper that will grab the audience? How about something that is both visually and tangibly intriguing that will set your work apart from the competition? It takes a special client with a special need, but when the situation is right, this approach is a sure success.

Consider educating your clients about the high- impact results that Laser Paper cutting can provide. This relatively new finishing feature creates dramatic and effective pieces that have applications in print advertising, direct mail pieces, business cards, custom invitations, inserts, corporate identity and a wide range of other print media.

	Example from the web
Laser-cutting is a dramatic new medium that can be applied throughout the complete range of print advertising and corporate identity materials.

Laser-cut letterhead, envelopes and direct mail pieces can cut through the clutter of ordinary print communication. Laser-cutting, by itself, or in combination with other mediums such as embossing, print and foil, can create an interactive quality to all your corporate graphic communications.

When used in an application, such as a magazine insert, it has the visual impact to stop the reader in their tracks. This stopping power and the added seconds of attention contribute dramatically to brand identification and information retention.

SEI has the know-how of the technoclogy and would be happy to help you apply this exciting new graphic tool to your design needs. SEI has a full range of products that can be applied for the laser cutting or paper. We can make this dramatic new medium work for you.

Our range of laser systems unique capabilities include precise registration of laser-cutting to print. The level of detail available is truly astonishing,paper cuts as well as the most bold and contemporary visual statements. Pop-up cards and other interactive pieces take on exciting new possibilities. We would be happy to show you how this embellishment can be incorporated into your product mix or new target market.

How Laser Cutting differs from Die cutting

	· Does not weaken stock between cuts · Low tooling costs compared to intricate dies · Detail does not affect cost · Tight and consistent registration · Eliminates die-cut scrap

Try to do this!

THE LASER DIFFERENCE…a matter of light touch!

Steel rule dies are difficult to design, slow and expensive to make and greatly limit the geometry you can cut. They are also large and expensive to store. They are efficient for cutting very large quantities of simple shapes, but are impractical for prototypes, small part quantities or fast turn-around.

Due to the large mechanical forces involved, steel rule dies have severely limited lifetimes and must be replaced frequently. Furthermore, design changes cannot be easily handled using dies because a brand new die must be purchased each time a design change occurs. This can be especially problematic and expensive while manufacturing prototypes and short production runs.

Another drawback of mechanical dies is that intricate designs, sharp corners and closely spaced details cannot be easily created using mechanical dies.

All these problems are eliminated when using software controlled laser machining because a laser is a non-contact tool and design changes can be made "on the fly" through software control. Paper products can easily be cut with a laser. The lack of thickness; coupled with their high combustion ability minimizes the power output requirements of a laser to no more than a hundred watts. The resultant edges are clean, precise, and free from burning.

As with a die, paper and cardboard can be stacked while using a laser machine for cutting that's even more efficient. Adhesive backed materials can be also stacked and effectively cut with a laser without gumming up the machine.

Kiss-cuts of any material are also easy to do, and can be done simultaneously with through-cuts, making laser machines ideal for overlays and labels. Labels can be made to include an additional tab to make the label easier and faster to apply, significantly decreasing application time and increasing value to your customer.

Unlike die cutting, there is no setup, so it's faster for the operator and more cost-efficient for your plant. Our machines generate a cutting path based on the original computer-generated artwork, using the same registration marks used in the printing process. The completely digital process means higher quality, more flexibility, and greater precision—all at dramatically lower costs.

A laser cutting system is an important tool for cutting paper products for many reasons, including:

Eliminate costly dies: No time -consuming setup, no expensive dies, higher quality, and greater precision. Extremely low operating costs: The machine costs less than $1/hour to run and maintain. Digital registration system: Automatic registration of printed parts on existing registration marks assures perfect alignment when cutting. Zero tool load: Clamping, complex, or dangerous holding methods are not required when cutting with a weightless beam of light. This is also very helpful when cutting small parts. The small tool cut width (kerf of .006") enables the cutting of any shape that can be drawn. Power control: The system monitors the actual cutting speed and dynamically adjusts laser power as the speed changes to maintain consistent cut quality. Tool variability eliminated: Absolute repeatability with a tool that never dulls.
