Laser Cutting and Engraving Foam & Foam Rubber

Do you work with foam? Foam is a material that can be easily processed with a BRM laser machine! Both cutting and engraving foam are possible with a CO2 laser machine, offering an efficient, precise, and spectacular process. This is largely due to the laser's millimeter accuracy, which allows projects to be executed with high precision.

Industries That Use Foam

Foam is widely used in various industries, including:

• Packaging Industry: Foam is often used for protective packaging, ensuring items are safely transported.
• Transportation Industry: Used for cushioning and insulation in vehicles, shipping containers, and more.
• Soundproofing Industry: Foam is highly effective for noise reduction and acoustic treatments.
• Interior Designers: Used for creating custom designs, furniture, and decorations.

Beyond these industrial applications, foam is also popular for artistic purposes, such as creating souvenirs, picture frames, sculptures, and other craft items.

Why Choose Laser Cutting and Engraving for Foam?

Laser machines are the only tools that provide a contactless processing method. The laser moves over the foam, engraving and cutting the material without applying any pressure. This means the foam doesn’t need to be clamped or secured to the table during the process, reducing the risk of damaging the material. The laser’s high precision allows for intricate designs, sharp edges, and detailed engravings, making it ideal for a variety of applications in both industrial and artistic fields.

In short, whether you are creating packaging, soundproofing materials, custom designs for interiors, or artistic pieces, a BRM laser machine is the perfect solution for working with foam.

How to laser engrave or cut foam

Foam is a great material that’s perfectly processable with a BRM CO2 Laser! Engraving and cutting foam is efficient and very precise. Foam is often used in industries like packaging, transportation, and soundproofing.

But foam isn’t only used for these applications, it’s also used for artistic reasons, think of souvenirs or photo frames. A laser machine is the only machine that can process the material so accurately without touching it at all. The laser hovers above the foam and creates the engraving and cuts from there. There’s no pressure exerted on the material and it doesn’t need to be fixed to the work surface during the engraving process. Laser technology eliminates the risk of damage during cutting or engraving that you would have with a knife, foam cutter or any other tool. Just insert the material and off you go!

Many possibilities with foam

Foam made of polyester, for example, is perfectly suitable to be processed with our BRM laser machines. A BRM laser isn’t only able to process foam but can be used to process a lot of other materials just the same.

Foam engraving or cutting machine

The best machine to process foam is our BRM CO2-laser. Each type of foam reacts differently to the impact of the laser beam, so there are hardly any regular guidelines for laser cutting or engraving foam with a laser machine, but the settings can be adjusted to achieve the best results and meet your specific needs! No design is too complex for a BRM laser machine.
