Laser Cutting, Engraving and Perforating of Textile Fabric
Laser Solutions for Fabric and Textile
Goldenlaser designs and builds CO2 laser machines specifically for cutting, engraving and perforating of fabrics and textiles. Our laser machines have the ability to cut fabrics and textiles into sizes and shapes efficiently and sustainably on large cutting scales, as well as cutting complex internal patterns on smaller cutting scales. Laser engraving textiles and fabrics can achieve incredible visual effects and tactile surface structures.
Applicable laser processes for fabrics and textiles
Ⅱ. Laser Engraving
Laser engraving of fabric is to remove (engrave) the material to a certain depth by controlling the power of the CO2 laser beam to obtain contrast, tactile effects or to perform light etching to bleach the color of the fabric.
Ⅲ. Laser Perforation
One of the desirable processes is laser perforation. This step allows to perforate the fabrics and textiles with a tight array of the holes of the certain pattern and size. It is often required to provide ventilation properties or unique decorative effects to the end product.
Ⅳ. Laser Kiss Cutting
Laser kiss-cutting is used to cut the top layer of material without cutting through an attached material. In fabric decoration industry, laser kiss cut makes a shape cut out of the surface layer of the fabric. The upper shape is then removed, leaving the underlying graphic visible.

A simple guide to textiles and the relevant laser cutting and engraving techniques
Textiles refer to materials that are made from fibers, thin threads or filaments which are natural or manufactured or a combination. Basically, textiles can be classified as natural textiles and synthetic textiles. Main natural textiles are cotton, silk, flannel, linen, leather, wool, velvet; Synthetic textiles mainly include polyester, nylon and spandex. Almost all textiles can be processed well by laser cutting. Some fabrics, such as felt and wool, can also be processed by laser engraving.
As a modern processing equipment, laser machines have grown in popularity in textile, leather and garment industries. Laser technique, is entirely different from traditional textile processes, as it is characterized by the accuracy, flexibility, efficiency, ease of operation and the scope of automation.
