Laser Cutting for Architectural Design
& Model Making
Craft detailed architectural models utilizing wood, acrylic, or various other materials.
Many architectural firms and schools use our laser systems to create precise scale models that accurately represent topography, elevation and space. Our laser systems can make your models more realistic because laser systems can process materials traditional methods cannot. With a laser system, the doors in your model can be made of real wood. It’s as simple as creating a CAD drawing, processing the artwork with the laser system and assembling the finished architectural model.
​
Client proposals and presentations take on a new look with laser processing. Quickly and easily produce realistic, precision-cut scale models in-house. Scribe or cut mat board, acrylic and other plastics, wood, paper and most non-metals crisply and cleanly.
​
Architectural model making has become an important tool to produce client presentations and entire development models. Many model makers are realising the effectiveness of laser cutting in-house with the cost savings earned and the ability to rapidly make small design revisions or changes to entire building facades.
​
All our our machine range can be used to produce the most intricate of designs in a vast array of materials. For architectural laser cutting of wood, plastics, acrylic, laser engraved veneers, marquetry, profiling and relief of landscapes new developments and elevations.
The possibilities are endless!

Laser-cut denim and laser-engraved fabrics
Laser engraving gives denim a distinctive appearance, with striking contrasts that vary based on the denim's color. Many clothing manufacturers utilize lasers to achieve "stone-washed" and "whisker" effects on jeans.
Fabrics like micro-suede and microfiber also showcase impressive results when laser engraved. Logos, text, and artwork can be etched into these materials, enhancing the value of your existing products.
Almost all materials (please verify compatibility with your laser first!) can be customised through laser processing, enabling the creation of logos and detailed laser cuts on your selected material.
Leather laser cutting is a sought-after service that can personalise existing items like wallets, belts, and clothing, as well as produce new designs using your laser for cutting leather.
Most materials require minimal edge finishing, and textiles need no edge treatment at all when taken out of your laser cutting system. Additionally, the heat from a finely focused laser beam prevents fraying, as the material fibers are bonded at their ends.
Packaging & Prototyping
Craft stunning prototypes with just a click.
Create product packaging without the need for dies or tools!
Lasers are perfect for developing packaging. You transform a packaging concept design to prototype in step, making quick revisions without the costs and time associated with producing new dies and cutters.
The lasers provided by One Touch Laser often surpass other packaging methods in terms of flexibility, production speed, and precision, allowing you to create mock-ups, packaging, and point-of-purchase displays efficiently and accurately.
Produce specialty die cuts on various materials and carry out multiple processes in the same workspace, including through-cutting, perforating, and scoring.
Enhance visual communication items by eliminating post-finishing and adding dimension.
