Well-known type of wood and similar material description:
What are the advantages of laser cutting of wood?
- No chips – thus, no clearance of the machine area necessary
- Cutting of extremely fine, virtually radius-free contours
- No need to clamp and fix of panels
- Less breakage and waste through contactless laser cutting
- Burr-free cut edges – no post-processing necessary
- No tool wear and thus - constant high cutting quality

Material information for laser cutting of wood:
Wood is used in diverse industries and is, due to its versatility, a very popular material. More and more, efficient CO2 laser technology is being used. The more homogeneous the wooden structures are, the more suitable is the material for laser cutting and engraving. Due to the thermal laser process, also features, such as moisture content, density, oil and resin content are influential variables for the quality and speed of the laser cut. When processing wood materials, there will occur a mild to strong oxidizing cut edge during laser processing. This means that a darkening cannot be avoided. Often these are heavily depending on the choice of wood and the water and resin content.
The basic rule is: The drier and resin-free the material is, the lighter will be the cut edge.
