ABSTRACT The application of the low-power CO2 laser-cutting process to fluoroelastomer (FKM), polyamide 6 (PA6), PA6/FKM thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs), and their thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) is reported. The main laser process parameters studied were laser power, cutting speed, and material thickness. The value of the top and bottom widths of the slit that were formed during laser cutting (kerf width), melted transverse area, and melted volume per unit time were measured and analyzed. Interestingly, TPE showed a smaller melted area and melted volume per unit time when compared with those values with PA6. Dynamic vulcanization further decreased these values. For example, the melted areas of PA6 and TPE were 510 × 10−3 mm2 and 305 × 10−3 mm2, respectively, which reduced to 238 × 10−3 mm2 for TPV at 40 W laser power. FKM showed the lowest value (melted area of 180 × 10−3 mm2). In addition, the output quality of the cut surface was examined by measuring the root mean square (RMS) roughness of the cut edges and heat-affected zone (HAZ). The obtained results indicated that the dimension of the HAZ and RMS roughness largely decreased in TPE when compared with PA6. For example, the HAZ of PA6 was 700 μm, which decreased to 230 μm for TPE at 40 W laser power. On the other hand, HAZ was nonexistent for FKM. Infrared spectroscopic analysis showed that there was no structural change of TPE or pristine polymers after applying the low-power CO2 laser on the surface of materials. CO2 laser cutting will be a new technique in this industry, and this analysis will assist the manufacturing industry to choose a suitable laser system with exhaustive information of process parameters for cutting or machining of rubber, TPEs, and TPVs.

This study deals with behaviour of bending deformation in CO2 laser forming process of titanium. CO2 laser forming technique was applied for a pure titanium plate with thickness of 1 mm to aim the development of new bending process. The experiments of laser forming were carried out with a CO2 laser machine. The bending angle and the temperature of workpiece were examined under the condition of various laser power, feed speed and laser spot diameter. Based on the experimental results, it was found that the bending deformation behaved greatly depending on the laser power and the laser spot diameter. The bending angle increased with an increase in the laser power. The bending direction tended to change from the laser irradiation side to its opposite side when the large laser spot diameter was applied.

Major Factors

Development of new material known as Ultra High Strength Steel (UHSS) able to improve the vehicle mass thus reflecting better fuel consumption. Transformation into high strength steel has been a significant drawback in trimming the UHSS into its final shape thus laser cutting process appeared to be the solution. This study emphasizes the relationship between Carbon Dioxide (CO2) laser cutting input parameters on 22MnB5 boron steel focusing on the kerf width formation and Heat Affected Zone (HAZ). Experimental research with variation of laser power, cutting speed and assisted gas pressure were executed to evaluate the responses. Metrological and metallographic evaluation of the responses were made on the outputs that are the kerf width formation and HAZ.  Positive correlation for power and negative interaction for cutting speed were found as the major factors on formation of the kerf. For the HAZ formation, thicker HAZ were formed as bigger laser power were applied to the material. Cutting speed and gas pressure does not greatly influence the HAZ formation for 22MnB5 boron steel.
