With Light, Precision, and Ideas for Your Own Laser Cutter Project
The district library Porz invites you to the workshop License for Laser Cutter on Friday, November 13, 2026. Participants will learn how to use the laser cutter of the city library independently and gain the foundation for their own creative maker projects.
Technology to Experiment and Design
The focus is on the FLUX Beambox. The laser cutter cuts and engraves suitable materials using a CO₂ laser beam. Depending on the settings for power and speed, fine engravings, precise cuts, and individual design elements are created – for example, on cardboard, wood, felt, or Kraftplex.
From the Workshop to Independent Use
The event conveys the operation of the device and creates the prerequisites for independent use in the makerspace of the district library Porz. After the workshop, participants will receive a license allowing them to reserve the laser cutter for their own projects.
Important Prerequisites
To participate, a valid library card and a minimum age of 18 years are required. Registration via the booking system is necessary. Participants must bring their own materials; what materials are suitable will be explained in the license workshop. Image editing and template creation are not part of the event content.
Event Experience in the Makerspace
Between library offerings, digital workshops, and practical event planning, a concentrated creative experience emerges: Ideas become visible, materials take shape, and modern technology is made understandable on-site. The quiet work atmosphere of the district library combines professional introduction with space for personal projects.
Conclusion: Those who want to use the laser cutter of the Porz district library independently in the future will find the right entry point in this free workshop. Register now, learn the technology, and realize your next design in wood, cardboard, or felt.
