Laser: What materials are suitable?

[AlphaSpan]

Hello
I am looking for an alternative to apply pockets onto plastic pre-cut parts and small plate up to 4mm.

I would like to move away from milling and due to recurring similar part families ( small series) I am searching for alternative processing methods.

So my question to all laser experts:

Is it possible to laser plastic? If yes, under what circumstances and what plastics would be suitable?

Thank you

It’s possible to laser plastics. I can’t say if it quicker / more efficient...
You also need a suitable laser.
