Episode 3: What kind of products CO2 lasers are suitable for cutting in the industrial field?

In the industrial field, CO2 laser cutting has many advantages compared with other cutting technologies on the market. For instance, it’s of great cutting quality, which is reflected by narrow cut width (generally in form of 0.1 to 0.5 mm), high precision (generally, hole pitch error of 0.1 to 0.4 mm, contour size error of 0.1 to 0.5 mm ), and great roughness of cut surface, therefore the slit can directly be welded without any reprocessing. Secondly, it’s characterized by high cutting speed, cleanness and no pollution. So, CO2 laser cutting is becoming more and more popular. However, CO2 laser cutting is not suitable for the cutting of all materials. Products suitable for CO2 laser cutting can be basically classified into two categories.
