Cutting Fiber-Reinforced Plastics

Precise composite contours without cutting-tool wear: Futonics thulium fiber lasers deliver tightly focused energy for contact-free processing of suitable GFRP and CFRP components, avoiding mechanical loading by a cutting tool.

Glass Processing

Laser processing of the polymer interlayer in laminated safety glass.

Cutting Laminated Glass

Separate the polymer interlayer precisely through the glass. Futonics thulium fiber lasers use selective absorption around 2 µm for contact-free interlayer cutting, supporting clean contours and automation alongside conventional glass-cutting tools.

Agriculture
