UV Laser Marking & Cutting Machine for Sea Shells

Product Overview

Ever spent hours trying to cut Mother of Pearl, abalone, or exotic shells, only to end up with chipped edges, burnt surfaces, or wasted material? Traditional CO₂ or fiber lasers just don’t cut it, and mechanical routers leave you sanding for hours.

The UV Laser Seashell Cutting Machine changes all that. Using 355 nm ultraviolet laser technology, it delivers cold, micron-level precision cuts, preserving your shells’ natural color and structure. With a 100 × 100 mm working area, this machine is perfect for high-end jewelry, inlays, and custom designs—whether in small workshops or industrial production.

Clean edges, zero burning, and precise cuts—finally, a laser that works the way you need it to.

Here’s the truth: UV laser is the only reliable solution for delicate shells.

  • Cold Processing: Cuts at a molecular level without heat

  • Pristine Edges: Smooth, chip-free, no post-processing needed

  • Ultra-Fine Precision: Micron-level accuracy for intricate jewelry patterns

  • Maximized Material Yield: Complex nested designs save valuable material
