Laser Cutting Acrylic Stand Sheet Samples

Laser Cutting Application:

The acrylic strand sheet samples were processed using the SBM 1200 cutting system equipped with a 250W CW CO2 (10.6 um) through a 2.5" lens. 3 circles were cut @ 5mm, 10mm and 20mm diameters. The circles were cut with emphasis placed on edge quality above all.

The SBM 1200M Laser Cutting and Engraving Machine comes equipped with CO2 laser combining flying optics with a precision Direct Drive motion system. CO2 laser equipped system provides highly accurate cutting, welding, engraving and marking capabilities for multiple materials.

Laser Cutting Acrylic Panel Samples

Laser Cutting Application:
Acrylic panel samples were processed by our application engineers using the SBM 1200 cutting system equipped with a 250W CW CO2 (10.6 um) through a 2.5" lens. Using 200 watts at a frequency of 5 kHz (modulated), the samples were cut with a pattern similar to the existing cuts on the sample. Samples were cut 1mm from cutting nozzle with ~10 psi compressed air. Cutting speed was 20mm per second and the application was completed in one pass.

The Laser Photonics application engineers made the following recommendations to the customer: The most appropriate system for this type of application is the SBM 1200 equipped with a 250 Watt continuous wave CO2 (106um) laser. A focal length lens of 2.5 inches should be used, depending on the focal distance requirements.
