My partner and I are looking to get into the wedding card business and would like to get some info regarding laser cutters.
We are in the very early stages of planning and therefore do not have alot of knowledge on the laser cutting process.
We would require the cutter to cut mostly card, from simple corner borders to entire cut work panels. We would need to cut between 100 to 1000 (if not more) at a time so would really like an auto feed function like you have on a normal printer. This would be a home based business therefore would not need a massive machine, but one that could cope with our needs.
The cards would be produced on materials varying in quality and size (A6 to A3 and anything in between). So maybe somebody could recommend a suitable machine/s for this?
Also what format would these designs need to be in? Would Adobe Illustrator be ok or does is vary machine to machine?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
