Laser cutters use high-powered lasers to direct a beam or material through optics and computer numerical control (CNC). Typically, the process uses a motion control system to follow the CNC or G-code of the pattern to be cut into the material. The focused laser beam burns, melts, vaporizes or is blown away by the gas jet, leaving behind a high-quality surface-clean edge. Next, this article will take you to learn more about laser cutting machines.
