What are the benefits of cutting aluminum foil with a laser?

Industrial laser cutting is one of the fastest and most repeatable methods of cutting metal. Lasers are able to cut quickly and precisely, even on the smallest and most intricate parts. By focusing the beam very closely and reducing the spot size, the laser becomes a sharp cutting tool. This small kerf allows parts to be nested closely together, maximizing material utilization. In addition, the material can be heat treated after cutting without the deformation caused by grinding and reshaping that is common after other methods. Cut edges are clean and corners are sharp. What's more, the entire process is non-contact and faster than any other cutting system. When cutting on foils or films, there is no pressure that can cause creases or surface defects. In addition, the material can be heat treated after laser cutting without the deformation caused by grinding or reshaping that is usually required after cutting with traditional methods. Another benefit of laser cutting is that multiple layers of foils and films can be processed more quickly. You can use the laser to cut multiple layers at once, such as support films, adhesive films, and cover films.

• In short, the use of laser cutting technology can meet most of the requirements for processing foil.

• This product is highly reproducible and fast with excellent edge quality.

• Since there is no contact between the laser and the material, it is ideal for accurately cutting fine details and small holes.

• Guarantees consistent graphics and high quality with no tool wear.

• Laser cutting is less expensive than other methods, especially when compared to chemical etching.

• Using laser cutting does not incur the additional environmental costs or issues associated with chemical etching processes.

• No additional tooling fees or other high initial investment costs are required to customize the job

Can laser mark aluminum foil?

Yes! In fact, in many applications, laser marking has completely replaced screen printing and hand-painting. The non-contact process means that the laser will not cause any damage to the material. Laser marking technology can accurately control the etching depth, character size and width of the engraved line, while also improving the clarity of edges and corners. All these factors combined enhance the rigor of the appearance and significantly improve production efficiency. Whether it is a serial number, part number, barcode or QR code, it can be achieved using a laser. Laisei Laser is happy to provide materials and can also process materials provided by customers.

Where are metal foils widely used?

Aluminium foil is used in a wide range of applications: in consumer electronics (e.g. mobile phones, laptops, camcorders and digital cameras), power tools, hybrid vehicles, power generation, lithium-ion batteries, heat exchangers, capacitors, transformers, microelectronics, medical technology and flexible printed circuit boards. The demand for aluminium foil is growing rapidly in the electric vehicle market. The cathode foil of the power battery of new energy vehicles is processed and produced with high-quality aluminum foil. Aluminum foil is an ideal choice in this application because the car needs to be as light as possible. Batteries made of aluminum foil have the characteristics of high voltage, high capacity and high efficiency.
