Using galvanometer scanners, laser systems can be used to cut plastics, metals, ceramics and semiconductors-almost any material. But each material may require different laser parameters and beam delivery mechanisms.

This is not an easy to choose right laser for your materials. There are many different laser types, and you must choose the correct wavelength and pulse duration. Laser system suppliers and tool suppliers make choices based on years of practical experience, so in practice.

Suppose you have developed a method to cut a plastic film as thick as paper, and you get good results. But then the customer requested slight changes to the material, and higher throughput might be required. This may affect your laser selection, and now different lasers may be more suitable for this job.

This is why it is so important to show all your possible applications to the laser supplier and think ahead of what you might do next year. Some laser systems can flexibly cut most of the materials used by the converter. However, in some cases the material requires a different laser. All parties should take time to ensure that you are in the right shape.

Laser is just part of cutting system, just like CPU of a computer. That's why we need materials testing first to confirm the machine delivery based on customers' request and applications.
