Engineering Standards & Fabrication Capabilities
When Precision Edges and Tight Tolerances Actually Matter
Laser cutting is the right process when your parts require clean, finished edges straight off the machine, intricate internal cutouts, or contours that mechanical routing can't reliably hold. For acrylic in particular, a CO2 laser produces flame-polished edges as a direct result of the cut - no sanding or secondary finishing needed.
Where router tolerances can drift on fine lettering or small radii, laser cutting holds ±0.05mm across the sheet. That level of repeatability matters when you're producing display components, architectural model parts, or award blanks that need to fit or stack consistently across a run.
Industries and Applications We Cut For
Perspex Online supplies laser-cut parts to a broad range of industries, from signage fabricators needing precise letter blanks to retail fitout contractors sourcing display components at scale.
Common applications include:
- Signage panels, push-through lettering, and backlit acrylic faces
- Point-of-sale displays, shelf risers, and product holders
- Architectural models and scale components cut from acrylic or MDF
- Awards, trophies , and recognition plaques in clear or coloured acrylic
- Jigs, templates, and registration fixtures cut from plywood or MDF
Backed by a Fabrication Workshop, Not a Print Shop
Perspex Online's laser cutting service runs through the P&M Plastics workshop - a professional plastics fabrication facility with over 30 years of trade experience. That means your files are assessed by people who understand material behaviour, sheet tolerances, and how a laser-cut part fits into a broader fabrication workflow.
If your job involves acrylic alongside other processes - bonding, forming, or routing - that work can be handled under the same roof, reducing handling and lead time between stages.
What to Prepare Before You Order
Laser cutting requires a vector file for accurate cutting - DXF, AI, EPS, or DWG formats are all accepted. Raster images or PDFs without embedded vectors will need to be redrawn before your job can be quoted.
When submitting your files, include your material choice (acrylic, MDF, or paper and card are the most common), sheet thickness, and quantity. If you're unsure about material suitability for your application, our team can advise before the job goes to the machine.
