How to Laser Cut Solid Color Fabric
▍Regular Fabric Cutting:
Advantages
✔ No crushing and breaking of material due to contactless processing
✔ Laser thermal treatments guarantee no fraying edges
✔ Engraving, marking, and cutting can be realized in a single processing
✔ No materials fixation thanks to MimoWork vacuum working table
✔ Automatic feeding allows unattended operation which saves your labor cost, the lower rejection rate
✔ The advanced mechanical structure allows laser options and customized working table
Applications:
Clothing, Mask, Interior (Carpets, Curtains, Sofas, Armchairs, Textile Wallpaper), Technical Textiles (Automotive, Airbags, Filters, Air Dispersion Ducts)

▍Regular Fabric Etching:
Advantages
✔ Voice Coil Motor delivers maximum marking speed up to 15,000mm's
✔ Automatic feeding & cutting due to Auto-Feeder and Conveyor Table
✔ Continuous high speed and high precision ensure productivity
✔ Extensible Working Table can be customized in accord with material format

▍Regular Fabric Perforating:
Advantages
✔ No dust or contamination
✔ High-speed cutting for plenty of holes within a short time
✔ Precise cutting, perforating, micro perforating
Laser is computer-controlled realizes easily switching in any perforated fabric with different design layouts. Because the laser is non-contact processing, it will not deform the fabric when punching expensive elastic fabrics. Since the laser is heat-treated, all cutting edges will be sealed which ensures smooth cutting edges.
Applications:
Athletic apparel, leather jackets, leather shoes, curtain fabric, Polyether Sulfone, Polyethylene, Polyester, Nylon, Glass Fiber

How to Vision Laser Cut Textiles (Fabrics)
Patterned Textiles:
▍Contour Recognition System
Why would be Contour Recognition System?
✔ Easily recognize different sizes and shapes of graphics
✔ Achieve Ultra-high-speed recognition
✔ No need for cutting files
✔ Large recognition format
Mimo Contour Recognition System, together with an HD camera is an intelligent option of laser cutting for fabrics with printed patterns. By the printed graphic outlines or color contrast, the contour recognition system can detect the pattern contours without cutting files, achieving a fully automatic and convenient process.
Applications:
Active Wear, Arm Sleeves, Leg Sleeves, Bandanna, Headband, Sublimation Pillow, Rally Pennants, Face Cover, Masks, Rally Pennants, Flags, Posters, Billboards, Fabric Frames, Table Covers, Backdrops, Printed Lace, Appliques, Overlaying, Patches, Adhesive Material, Paper, Leather…

▍CCD Camera Recognition System
Why would be CCD Mark Positioning?
✔ Accurately locate the cutting item according to the mark points
✔ Precise cutting by the outline
✔ High processing speed together with short software setup time
✔ Compensation of thermal deformation, stretching, shrinkage in materials
✔ Minimal error with digital system control
The CCD camera is equipped beside the laser head to search for the workpiece using registration marks at the start of the cutting procedure. In this way, printed, woven, and embroidered fiducial marks, as well as other high-contrast contours, can be visually scanned so that laser can know where the actual position and dimension of the fabric workpieces are, achieving a precise cutting effect.
Applications:
Embroidery Patch, Twill Numbers & Letter, Label, Applique, Printed Textile…

▍Template Matching System
Why would be Template Matching System?
✔ Achieve fully automated process, extremely easy and convenient to operate
✔ Achieve high matching speed and high matching success rate
✔ Process a large number of patterns of the same size and shape in a shorter period
When you are cutting small pieces of the same size and shape, especially digital printed or woven labels, it often takes a lot of time and labor costs by processing with the conventional cutting method. MimoWork develops a template matching system that is in a completely automated process, helping to save your time and increase the cutting accuracy for label laser cutting at the same time.
Non- patterned Textiles:
Depending on the actual production need, sometimes you still need vision function regardless there are no printed/embroidery patterns on your textiles. For example, when you process heated car seats, you will need HD Camera and Template Matching System to recognize the subtle contour of the copper wire wrapped by seat material and prevent you from cutting them.
Application: heated car seats, protection suit, lace
