Rubber ablation & texturing

Textures and patterns can be produced by ablating material from the surface of a rubber sheet, or by scribing the surface. Laser processing allows intricate designs to be created, including text, logos and graphics for rubber stamps, for example. Special laser-friendly rubber is available for this purpose, which produces virtually no odour during processing.

Laser texturing may be applied to other products; both natural and synthetic rubbers can be processed. Shoe soles are often textured by ablation or scribing, for example, adding patterning which provides both increased grip and decoration.
