Laser cutting copper is a subtractive manufacturing technology that uses a high power laser beam to cut flat sheet materials.
Laser cut copper foil.
Fiber lasers have an emission wavelength of around 1 07 µm compared to 10 6 µm for traditional co 2 alternatives.
This week we re launching our new trotec foil rolls which are a laser friendly foil that you can stick and cut on any practically any hard flat surface.
The high precision laser vaporizes a cut line through the copper leaving a 90 degree high quality cut edge finish.
Laser cutter are mostly faster than cutting plotter and more precise than punching dies.
A computer directs this laser to follow the cutting line provided in your digital design.
However co 2 lasers have not traditionally offered a good solution for cutting highly reflective materials.
Not only is the 1 07 µm laser light.
Aluminum foil will reflect the laser back up and out of the laser engraver and.
The cutting of foils with co 2 laser systems is characterised by high precision and flexibility.
