Paper converting processes typically run at very high speeds, with roll-to-roll laser cutters sometimes reaching speeds as high as 400m/min. Laser cutting achieves the cutting effect by vaporizing the surface of the paper, so the paper and card materials respond well to the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser wavelength range, the cutting process is fast and reliable, and all other cutting results are also relatively good.
Paper laser cutting
Compared with traditional processing methods, laser cutting machine has high precision, fast cutting, not limited to cutting patterns, automatic typesetting saves materials, smooth incision, reducing cutting material loss, good processing quality, low production cost, and will gradually improve or replace traditional The advanced die-cutting process equipment is favored by many printing and processing enterprises.
Laser power
The picture above shows that the speed of the laser cutting paper is proportional to the laser power, so doubling the processing speed usually requires twice the power. It also showed that the 9.3µm wavelength can cut 20% faster than the 10.6µm laser, depending on the composition and weight of the paper.
Using the laser drilling process, no contact processing is required, and the surface is very clean and smooth whether it is cutting or punching. It is specially designed for making round holes, square holes, hexagonal holes, special-shaped holes, single holes, group holes, tiny holes and other processes. It has faster drilling speed and high precision.
In addition, the laser process can easily and precisely cut complex designs, and designs can be easily changed or modified. The non-contact nature of the process means that delicate designs, such as those required for greeting cards and fine stationery, will not deform or deform during the cutting process.
