Laser Cut Copper Foil

Laser cutting copper is a subtractive manufacturing technology that uses a high power laser beam to cut flat sheet materials.

Laser cut copper foil.

The cutting of foils with co 2 laser systems is characterised by high precision and flexibility. However co 2 lasers have not traditionally offered a good solution for cutting highly reflective materials. Laser cutting of mild steel and stainless steel has a long history and has been one of the primary applications for co 2 lasers. A computer directs this laser to follow the cutting line provided in your digital design.

Warning don t try what you are about to see without understanding the risks. Not only is the 1 07 µm laser light. 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.

Fiber lasers have an emission wavelength of around 1 07 µm compared to 10 6 µm for traditional co 2 alternatives.
