Process: Disc lasers for glass cutting
Industrial sector: general industrial
Material: most industrial glass, typical thickness 0.3 – 10mm
Other notes: Multiple Laser Beam Absorption is an innovative means of laser cutting glass. A reflector is used to retransmit the ~1um wavelength beam repeatedly through the glass to create a thermal stress. The beam is used to propagate an initiated crack through the glass in the shape desired. The result is a ‘zero kerf’ clean, polished cut.
