Abstract:Multi ply fabric cutting by laser is very challenging because of low thermal conductivity of textile materials. A laser beam can through-cut only limited number of fabric plies placed one above another. In experiment the conditional spread of ten 100% cotton fabric plies was cut by a laser beam to see how cutting speed influences cutting quality. It was established that using a 100 W laser beam all 10 plies could be cut only by lower speeds 30-45mm/s. In the laser cutting process the cut edges of material got … Show more
