What this page is

buythis.co.za/laser-flatbed-co2 is the flatbed CO2 laser section of Buythis, AM.CO.ZA's online shop. On the live page it is only a heading, a link to flatbed laser videos and tiles. This knowledge base page explains the AM.CO.ZA TruCUT flatbed CO2 laser range, how to choose a version, and lists the 56 flatbed CO2 laser products currently on Buythis with their prices.

What a flatbed CO2 laser is

A flatbed CO2 laser is a large-format laser cutting and engraving machine with a full-sheet bed, so whole boards of acrylic, MDF, plywood, supawood, leather, fabric, paper and similar non-metal materials can be cut without trimming them first. The TruCUT flatbed range comes in 1300×2500mm and 2050×3050mm beds, plus 2050×4000mm and a 1600×3000mm bed with a conveyor table and feeding straightener for material on rolls.

Each size comes in three versions:

Standard: one laser head for normal cutting and engraving.
CCD camera: a camera reads printed registration marks so the laser can cut around printed artwork (contour cutting) as well as normal jobs.
Double head: two laser heads and two tubes working at the same time, so two identical parts are cut at once.

"Complete package" machines come with the CO2 laser tube of the stated power. "Barebone" units are the machine frame and motion system with accessories in a crated box, for buyers who choose their own tube and extras.

Each price links to the Buythis product page and shows its SKU. Higher tube power cuts thicker material and cuts faster; lower power is enough for engraving and thinner sheets.

Prices are current Buythis prices including VAT from the product dump dated 2026-10-20. Some prices come from slightly older dump entries (2026-10-18, 2026-10-19). Check the product page before ordering, since prices change.

How to choose

Pick the bed size from your sheets. 1300×2500mm takes a standard 1220×2440mm board; 2050×3050mm takes larger acrylic and composite sheets; the 1600×3000mm conveyor bed suits fabric and other roll material.
Pick the tube power from your thickest material and how fast you need to cut it.
Choose CCD camera if you cut printed work such as stickers, labels, patches or printed acrylic, and double head if you cut many identical parts.
Plan the extras. A flatbed laser needs a water chiller for the tube, an air pump for the air assist and an extraction fan; see the cooling and air pump pages below.
