Laser Cutting of Self-Adhesive films is becoming more popular. In virtually all PVC laser cutting operations, fumes are given off in some form as the laser burns off the substrate. The fumes are a mixture of particulate and gaseous matter and can have important effects on health, laser efficiency and product contamination of the products being lasered.
Extremely corrosive acidic Hydrogen Chloride is produced as the PVC burns during the laser process and is classed as a major health hazard. It is important that these fumes are removed quickly for the safety of the operator and equipment.
A long study and extensive testing at Grafityp Self-Adhesive Products, Belgium, has resulted in a solution to solve these issues. Laser cutting of Grafityp Ecological films (GEF) is completely free from the problematic fumes and hazards mentioned above. GEF is completely PVC free; there are no acidic fumes to migrate on to laser lens housing or other components. It will not cause irreversible corrosive damage as is the case with PVC films. This results in a safer work environment and a stable laser efficiency and longer life span for the laser. It is possible to create intricate designs in laser cut vinyl in a completely safe environment.
