There are several ways to cut glass with a laser: one of them is FILAMENTATION. The most advanced techniques, involve the use of ultrashort pulses with the aim of modifying the structure of the glass, creating an incision inside it. Our laser machine, which is operated by CNC, can also handle the separation of the piece from the scraps through a long-applied shock the incision. This machine is able to cut float glass with a thickness which can go from 0.5 mm up to 15 mm and, in some cases chemically tempered glass,
with the following advantages:
– The laser processing minimizes defects on the glass ensuring an excellent quality of the cutting profile, so as to facilitate the glass tempering and bending process;
– The glass is processed without mechanical stress favoring an increase in the quality of the tempering, tested in the automotive sector;
– Minimizes the need for subsequent finishing operations, such as grinding;
The cut is performed without the use of external fluids (water or gas) and without the production of dust or fumes (a suction system is not necessary);
– The low powers absorbed and used by the sources ensure a consumption that can reach up to 70% less than a water jet cutting machine.
