Laser Cutting Foam

Application #707

Process: Laser Cutting
Material: Foam
Industry: Manufacturing

Detailed Application View

Application Details:

Material:	Foam
Method Used:	Cutting
Depth:	Kiss & (Through)
Laser Type:	CO2
Focal Length Lens:	3.75"
Power:	40 Watts (60 Watts)
Frequency:	3 kHz (3 kHz) Modulated
Speed:	300mm (300mm)
Passes:	1

The samples were cut using the 200 Watt SMB 1200 FL cutting system. Each foam sample was cut with a 1" x 1.5" box kiss cut and also cut through. The thicker foam sheets would benefit from a longer focal length lens then 3.75" lens used for the application.
