The effect of assist gas on the surface roughness for carbon dioxide laser cutting process

This study focuses on the effect of assist gases on the surface roughness for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) laser cutting process. The analysis of the surface roughness has been determined by Surfcom 130A surface roughness tester which it place in laboratory. The material used for this experiment is acrylic...
