Introduction
In modern manufacturing, laser cutting has become a widely adopted technique due to its efficiency and precision.
However, the physical properties of different materials demand tailored laser power settings, and process selection requires balancing advantages and limitations.
Material Compatibility and Laser Power
150W (Medium Power)
Optimized for resilient materials such as leather, balancing penetration through dense textures while minimizing burn marks that compromise aesthetics.
600W (Ultra-High Power)
Essential for heat-resistant industrial materials like Fiberglass and ceramic fiber blankets.
Ultra-high power ensures full penetration, avoiding incomplete cuts or delamination caused by insufficient energy.

Material Comparation
| Fabric Type | Laser Cutting Effects | Traditional Cutting Effects |
| Elastic Fabrics |
Precise cuts with sealed edges, preventing fraying and maintaining shape. |
Risk of stretching and distortion during cutting, leading to uneven edges. |
| Natural Fibers |
Slightly burnt edges on white fabrics, may not be ideal for clean cuts but suitable for seams. |
Clean cuts but prone to fraying, requiring additional treatment to prevent wear. |
| Synthetic Fabrics |
Sealed edges preventing fraying, high precision and speed, reducing production costs. |
Prone to fraying and wear, slower cutting speed, and lower precision. |
| Denim |
Achieves a "stone-washed" effect without chemicals, enhances production efficiency. |
May require chemical processes for similar effects, increased risk of fraying and higher costs. |
| Leather/Synthetics |
Precise cuts and engravings with heat-sealed edges, adds decorative elements. |
Risk of fraying and uneven edges. |
