“…This conclusion was certified at particle as well as fibre composites (biological, synthetic) [8]. It is possible to agree with the statement that the experiments performed at graphite epoxy composites showed good results at cutting by the water-jet comparing with other tested technologies [9]. However, the results proved delamination of layers at various cutting speeds.…”

“…However, the results proved delamination of layers at various cutting speeds. The delamination of the layers at fibre composites was proved, namely, at the cut initiation [9]. The analysis done for the surface roughness for both of the best and worst case showed that abrasive water-jet performed much better than plain water-jet [2].…”

“…Most commonly, the reinforcing fibre is fibreglass, although high strength fibres such as aramid and carbon are used in advanced applications [9]. A distinct advantage of composites, over other materials, is the ability to use many combinations of resins and reinforcements, and therefore custom tailor the mechanical and physical properties of a structure [9]. The composite materials are widely used in the technical practice [10; 14].…”

Abstract. The water-jet cutting technology represents an effective cutting tool for diverse materials. It is prospective in the area of composite materials, which represent a combination of a hard and a soft component. An advantage of the water-jet cutting is that the cut (the material) is not heat affected, namely at the polymeric materials. The abrasive water-jet with a dash of pabrasivum (a garnet MESH 80) was used for the research. The research was performed on the device AWJ CT 0806. The aim of the research was to evaluate the cutting area and delamination of the matrix and the reinforcement (a filler). The research based on the SEM analysis proved that the AWJ technology was a prospective method for cutting polymeric composite materials.

Increased Cutting Efficiency due to Multi‐Wavelength Remote‐Laser‐Ablation of Fiber‐Reinforced Polymers

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Tailored processes are required to increase the acceptance of fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) in industry. For this purpose, the application of hybrid yarn facilitates short flow paths of the matrix systems and thus comparatively low consolidation pressures. This should be accompanied by appropriate fast processes. The remote-laser-ablation expands the area of processing strategies, so that the laser has the potential to be a tool for the future. Laser cutting of FRP is an ambitious process because of the inhomogeneity of the reinforcement material and the polymer matrix material. The present paper shows an experimental set up for combining beam radiation with wavelengths of 1.09 and 10.6 mm.

Dual Wavelength Laser Beam Cutting of High‐Performance Composite Materials

et al. 2016

The development of appropriate processes aims to shorten the cycle time of the production of parts, based on fiber reinforced polymers. Here, the laser can be a tool for the future, because the wear‐ and tool free processing expands the area of treatment processes. But laser processing is a challenging process due to the strong differing thermo‐optical properties of fiber‐ and matrix material. The present paper shows a solution to take these limitations into account. An experimental setup is applied to combine radiation with 1 and 10 μm. Thereby, the parameter and application window is expanded by the mixing ratio of radiation with both wavelengths. The present paper will show optimized parameters for different kind of materials as a result of this novel type of processing.
