Material Overview

Birch aircraft-grade plywood consists of three flexible layers of high-quality light birch veneer. This extra-thin plywood is both strong and supple, with a nearly flawless surface on both sides. Perfectly suitable for laser cutting and engraving thanks to its consistent structure and minimal thickness.

When laser cutting, a black cutting line is created with minimal smoke and soot marks, and the cut edge may leave a slight residue. Engravings show clearly in contrast with black/brown tones and maintain a subtle, natural appearance.

Because the material has an odd number of veneer layers, it is fairly flexible along the grain.

✔ Highlights

✔ Laser-compatible – optimized cutting depth and engraving quality
✔ Delivered ready-to-use – can be used straight from the laser
✔ Smooth surface on both sides – ready for use
✔ Very strong and flexible – ideal for bendable applications
✔ Extra fine cutting edge (± 0.2 mm) – delivers a clean result
✔ Protective film optional – protects against smoke deposits
✔ Multiple thicknesses available – 1 mm and 2 mm
✔ Natural wood colour – sleek and authentic appearance

Which laser source is this material suitable for?

✅ Suitable for CO₂ lasers

✅ Suitable for diode lasers

Compatibility is an indication for the material. Cutting and engraving depend on your machine, power, colour and thickness. Check the material specification and machine manual for your chosen variant.

Applications
