How to use a laser machine to cut and engrave rubber

Laser machines offer a fast, clean, and highly accurate way to cut and engrave rubber for a wide range of applications. Whether you're producing custom rubber stamps, gaskets, seals, or industrial prototypes, laser cutting delivers smooth edges without the need for additional finishing. With CO₂ laser systems, you can easily engrave detailed graphics, text, or logos directly into rubber surfaces, creating long-lasting and durable results. Compatible with natural rubber, silicone, EPDM, and synthetic blends, laser processing reduces tool wear and eliminates the mess of traditional methods—perfect for both high-volume production and personalized designs.

Discover the Power of Laser-Cut Rubber

Rubber is a uniquely flexible material, valued for its high elasticity and ability to return to its original shape after deformation. Its resilience and versatility make it ideal for a wide range of applications.

Laser cutting brings this material to a new level—combining rubber’s natural flexibility with the precision of CO₂ laser technology. Using a laser cutter or engraver, you can create detailed patterns, custom shapes, and clean edges on rubber sheets or blocks with minimal effort. From stamps and seals to industrial gaskets and custom components, laser-cut rubber offers accuracy, efficiency, and a clean finish without physical wear or tooling.

Rubber Types Suitable for Laser Processing？

1.Natural Rubber
Good for engraving and surface marking.
Emits minimal odor but may char slightly when cutting.
2.EPDM Rubber (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer)

Tips

How to Make a Rubber Stamp with a Laser Engraver?

Rubber stamps have become a top choice for laser engraving and cutting, ideal for both personal DIY projects and custom orders. Laser machines enable users to add personalized touches—such as names, logos, and intricate designs—to create unique stamps. However, there are several key factors to consider when customizing rubber stamps with a laser engraver to ensure precision, durability, and the best possible finish.

Choose the Right Rubber

Use laserable rubber, specifically designed for clean, detailed engraving. Avoid rubber with chlorine or PVC content.

Design Your Stamp

Use graphic design software (like Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW) to create your stamp layout. Make sure to:
Mirror the design so it stamps correctly.
Use black for engraved areas (these will be recessed).
Keep fine details bold for best results.

Prepare the Laser Settings

Set your CO₂ laser engraver with the recommended parameters:
Power: Medium to high
Speed: Low (for deeper engraving)
Resolution: 500–1000 DPI
(Adjust based on material thickness and machine model.)
