Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser cut quality of acrylic using different feed rate and canstant power/
Laser are widely used as cutting tools that obtain high quality end product. Laser can cut many type of material includes metals, plastic, rubber, and ceramics. In this project, the samlpes of acrylic (Polymethyl Methacrylate, PMMA) were cut used Carbon Dioxode (CO2) laser cutting machine with diffe...
