Delrin (acetal/POM) is one of the best plastics for laser cutting: it produces clean white edges and minimal fumes. ABS cuts acceptably but tends to melt and produce odor. PETG can cut but edges may be rough. Always test unfamiliar plastics with a small sample first. Delrin is excellent for mechanical prototypes because it's self-lubricating and machines/lasers beautifully.
Different plastics behave very differently under a CO₂ laser — some cut beautifully while others are dangerous.

We manufacture plastic in thicknesses from Up to 1/2" depending on type. Never laser PVC, vinyl, or any chlorine-containing plastic. The chlorine gas produced is toxic and corrodes laser optics.
