No Plan Press
Optic lets you customize existing objects and create with a wide variety of materials including cardstock, wood, acrylic, fabric, leather, foam, rubber, metals, and stone.
Optic’s foldability means you can create in any space, and simply store it away when you’re done. Easily switch between the compact 4.5 x 6.5 x 24.75 inch storage size and the generous 12 x 18 inch base work area. No constraints — just seamless creativity.
We designed Optic with unique built-in filtration, removing the need for a window exhaust or separate filtration device. Similar to a CNC router dust boot, it pulls in laser-generated smoke and fumes and through the filter where the HEPA and high-activity carbon media capture the contaminants.
Optic makes big dreams come true. Simply detach its cutting mat to use Optic directly on surfaces of any size and thickness, such as as a large wooden sheet. For projects larger than the 18 x 12 inch base work area, cut or engrave your design in sections instructing the software to precisely align each part.
Increase the clearance height in 0.5 inch increments all the way up to 5.5 inches to engrave larger items.
Easily connect to an alternative filtration or exhaust option with the included vacuum hose and adapter when it suits your needs.
Get curvy and engrave on cylindrical objects with a quick, intuitive setup. (Note: Requires the Expansion Kit for additional clearance.)
