Laser Cutter for Cloth

Fabric Pattern Cutting Machine from MimoWork Laser

Based on the standard fabric laser cutter, MimoWork designs the extended laser cloth cutter for more conveniently collecting the finished workpieces. While remaining enough cutting area (1600mm* 1000mm), the extension table of 1600mm * 500mm is open, with the aid of a conveyor system, timely deliver the finished fabric pieces to the operators or classified box. The extended garment laser cutting machine is a great choice for coiled flexible materials, like woven fabric, technical textiles, leather, film, and foam. Small structure design, great efficiency improvement!

Mechanical Structure

Safe & Stable Structure

- Safe Circuit

Safe Circuit is for the safety of people in the machine environment. Electronic safety circuits implement interlock safety systems. Electronics give far greater flexibility in the arrangement of guards and the complexity of safety procedures than mechanical solutions.

- Extension Table

The extension table is convenient for collecting fabric being cut, especially for some small fabric pieces like plush toys. After cutting, these fabrics can be conveyed to the collection area, eliminating manual collecting.

- Signal Light

The signal light is designed to signal to people using the machine whether the laser cutter is in use. When the signal light turns green, it informs people that the laser cutting machine is on, all cutting work is done, and the machine is ready for people to use. If the light signal is red, it means everyone should stop and not turn on the laser cutter.

- Emergency Button

An emergency stop, also known as a kill switch (E-stop), is a safety mechanism used to shut down a machine in an emergency when it cannot be shut down in the usual way. The emergency stop ensures the safety of operators during the production process.

High-automation

- Vacuum Suction System

Vacuum tables are commonly used in CNC machining as an effective way to hold material onto the work surface while the rotary attachment cuts. It uses the air from the exhaust fan to hold thin sheet stock flat.

- Conveyor System

The Conveyer System is the ideal solution for series and mass production. The combination of the Conveyer table and the auto feeder provides the easiest production process for cut coiled materials. It transports the material from the roll to the machining process on the laser system.

dual laser heads for laser cutting machine

Two Laser Heads - Option

Most simply and economically to speed up your production efficiency is to mount multiple laser heads on the same gantry and cut the same pattern simultaneously. This doesn't take extra space or labor. If you need to cut a lot of identical patterns, this would be a perfect choice for you.

Nesting Software - Option

When you are trying to cut a whole lot of different designs and want to save material to the largest degree, Nesting Software will be a good choice for you. By selecting all the patterns you want to cut and setting the numbers of each piece, the software will nest these pieces with the most usage rate to save your cutting time and roll materials. Simply send the nesting markers to the Flatbed Laser Cutter 160, it will cut uninterruptedly without any further human intervention.

Auto Feeding System

The Auto Feeder combined with the Conveyor Table is the ideal solution for series and mass production. It transports the flexible material (fabric most of the time) from the roll to the cutting process on the laser system. With stress-free material feeding, there is no material distortion while contactless cutting with laser ensures outstanding results.

Marker Pen Module

You can use the marker pen to make the marks on the cutting pieces, enabling the workers to sew easily. You can also use it to make special marks such as the serial number of the product, the size of the product, the manufacture date of the product, etc.

fume extractor for laser cutting machine

Fume Extractor - Option

Melting the surface of the material to achieve the perfect cutting result, CO2 laser processing may generate lingering gases, pungent odor, and airborne residues when you are cutting synthetic chemical materials and the CNC router can't deliver the same precision that laser does. MimoWork Laser Filtration System can help one puzzle out the bothersome dust and fumes while minimizing disruption to production.

How to Avoid Burning Edges When Laser Cutting Cloth?

Laser-cutting cloth can potentially result in burned or charred edges if the laser settings are not properly adjusted. However, with the right settings and techniques, you can minimize or eliminate burning, leaving clean and precise edges.

Here are some Factors to Consider to Avoid Burning when Laser Cutting Cloth:

1. Laser Power:

Lower the laser power to the minimum level required to cut through the fabric. Excessive power can generate more heat, leading to burning. Some fabrics are more prone to burning than others due to their composition. Natural fibers like cotton and silk may require different settings than synthetic fabrics like polyester or nylon.

2. Cutting Speed:

Increase the cutting speed to reduce the dwell time of the laser on the fabric. Faster cutting can help prevent excessive heating and burning. Perform test cuts on a small sample of the fabric to determine the optimal laser settings for your specific material. Adjust the settings as needed to achieve clean cuts without burning.

3. Focus:

Ensure that the laser beam is properly focused on the fabric. An unfocused beam can generate more heat and cause burning. Normally use a focus lens with a 50.8’’ focal distance when laser cutting cloth

4. Air Assist:

Use an air assist system to blow a stream of air across the cutting area. This helps disperse smoke and heat, preventing them from accumulating and causing burning.

5. Cutting Table:

Consider using a cutting table with a vacuum system to remove smoke and fumes, preventing them from settling on the fabric and causing burning. The vacuum system will also keep the fabric flat and taut during cutting. This prevents the fabric from curling or shifting, which can lead to uneven cutting and burning.

In Summary

While laser cutting cloth can potentially result in burned edges, careful control of laser settings, proper machine maintenance, and the use of various techniques can help minimize or eliminate burning, allowing you to achieve clean and precise cuts on fabric.
