For laser cutting fabrics such as cotton, silk, felt, etc.
With a Trotec laser, you can quickly and easily laser cut a variety of textiles to size. Materials can also be given a high-quality finish with a tactile effect. Whether you use it to engrave felt or to cut extravagant shapes out of polyester, lasers offer you incredible design possibilities. Synthetic substances react very well during processing, the laser beam fuses edges on polyester and prevents fraying.
It's Toronto Women's Fashion Week! We've teamed up with renowned fashion designer Zoran Dobric to display some amazing laser cut fabrics and items on the catwalk. Zoran talks about working with the Speedy 400 and how it explored his ceativity.

Laser engraving and cutting of fabrics
When processing textiles, the laser produces products with precision and flexibility. The laser beam melts the material while cutting and results in clean, perfectly sealed edges. Laser engraving creates a tangible tactile effect. In this way, end products can be given a special finish.
Single-layer fabrics can be cut faster and therefore more productively with a laser than with a knife. Laser processing is a non-contact, tool-free process. The textiles and fabrics are not touched during laser cutting; as a result, the material is not warped. The laser beam of a fabrics laser cutter melts the material and the results are clean, perfectly sealed edges.
"I've used the Speedy 400 laser cutter on my Spring 2017 collection, which really allowed me to boost my creativity and create designs that you could never possibly create by hand because they are so intricate. I've used laser cutting in my last 3 collections, now I'm working with gold and glitter foils. I really enjoyed the process of experimentation and discovering what I can do with different materials and how they will work with laser cutting. My experience with laser cutting has been great, the Speedy 400 is relatively easy to use - I've learned to use it in about a day. The machine is really amazing because I've cut so many different materials and it was easy to adjust the machine to different materials. People look at my designs and don't understand how I did it, it really helps express your creativity and makes something that otherwise would not have been possible without this technology.

A variety of laser cut fabrics respond very well to processing, such as synthetic fabrics. They often comprise plastics such as polyester. The laser beam melts polyester in a controlled manner, and this provides fiber-free, sealed edges. For organic fabrics such as cotton and linen, a brownish discolored cutting edge is obtained similar to when processing wood. This effect can be partially compensated by selecting the correct lens, laser parameters and using compressed air for your fabrics laser cutter.
Laserflexx is a high-quality, multi-layered film that has been specifically designed for laser processing. Enrich textiles with designs of your choice, logos, and lettering with a screen-like finish. Optimal laser settings vary depending on the laser power and the speed of your laser plotter. We recommend processing from the bottom up while using the highest possible exhaust power setting. This way, any dust produced is no longer drawn across the area that has already been laser-processed.
