A full day on the work, not the buttons.

Jigs, nesting, rotary, relief engraving, clean cut edges, and how to diagnose a bad result instead of changing everything at once. On a machine from the same family as yours, with your own files if you send them ahead.

Most people who have had a laser for six months are using a fraction of it. Not through any fault: the machine will happily cut rectangles forever and never mention that it could have been doing rotary work, relief engraving, or running a hundred identical parts off a jig without anyone realigning anything.

What the day covers

Cut, engrave, mark

When each is the right answer, what each costs in time, and why the same file produces three different results.

Clean edges

Getting acrylic, plywood and MDF to cut without scorching, without a tapered edge, and without a second pass.

Photo and relief engraving

Dithering, resolution, contrast preparation. Why a first attempt usually comes out grey and flat, and what to change.

Jigs and fixtures

The single biggest productivity change available to a lab. Running the same job a hundred times without aligning anything by eye.

Nesting and batching

The difference between forty minutes and four hours for one class set. Covered with real numbers.

Rotary work

Bottles, tumblers, cylindrical parts, and the setup that decides whether the engraving closes up neatly or not.

File preparation

Illustrator, CorelDRAW or Inkscape — line weights, colour mapping, and the silent failures that make a file do nothing at all.

Diagnosing a bad result

Settings, file, material, optics or focus. Working out which, quickly, instead of changing everything at once.

How it runs

At our Riyadh showroom, on a machine from the same family as yours. Send your own files ahead and we will work on those rather than on samples — it is a better day and you leave with something you can use.

You leave with the parameter sets we used, written down. The first week back at your own machine should not be spent guessing at numbers you already watched work.

Groups of up to eight. Beyond that people stop touching the machine.

Who it is for

Lab technicians, design and engineering instructors, workshop staff, production operators, and anyone who has inherited a machine from someone who left without handing over.

Booking

Included in the quotation when you buy a Trotec laser from us for a teaching lab. Booked on its own otherwise — tell us the machine, the group size and what you make, and we will quote it.

Pair it with materials training if the person who buys your stock is different from the person who cuts it. That combination saves more money than either session alone.
