Description
Jiajun Fu and co-authors test a laser for cutting non-woven fabric, a cloth made of pressed fibers used in many goods. Laser cutting is fast and neat, and shops already use it for cloth. The team used a violet pulsed laser on thin fabric and varied the settings to find the best mix.
Speed and pulse rate changed the cut a great deal. A mid-range speed with a low pulse rate cut clean through the cloth with a narrow slit and little burning or rust-like change. Under those settings the cut edge was flat, much like a scissor cut. Since laser paths can be programmed, the method can also trace fine patterns in the cloth.
